1970 911 t 2.2l barn find???

Well , maybe not a barn find but it has been stored covered in a dry So Cal. garage for 15 years. (92' - 07') It has the 2.2L engine with dual Zenith carbs, Fuchs deep 6's, water shields and about 116k mi. When I got it I replaced the fluids, got two new batteries, replaced the fuel pump and fuel line and started it up. I then pumped up the tires and drove directly to my local Porsche specialist. They rebuilt the carbs, did a full tune up, rebuilt brakes and changed lines, installed water shields, replaced exhaust return tubes and conducted a general safety inspection (have invoice). Next were four new Kumo 205/60 15's and an Audio Shoppe custom installed Pioneer P4900 IB CD deck (detachable face and Ipod ready) and 4 speakers. It's been back to the mechanic for a few adjustments since, but that is the major work done. Since then, I have put on about 700 trouble free miles. It has a period aftermarket steering wheel with Porsche emblem.. and the horn works! The original manual, full set of service manuals, original window sticker and tool kit bag. I do not have the CoA. I am the 3rd Owner my Uncle was the 2nd.
Now for the other side of the coin. The car backfires when down shifting. It has the Marelli distributor and needs to be converted to the Bosch. That will allow the timing to be set properly and should cure the problem. Only the seals that could be reached with the engine in the car were changed. It leaks a bit (most do) but new seals won’t hurt. Paint is original except for a fix on a fender bender in 1982 or so. It has a couple paint dings, the biggest is in the right rear quarter (a slight crease about 2 inches long). The dash has a couple of cracks, the headliner is a bit dingy and the right turn signal works every other day or so.
All in all a VERY GOOD car, and with a little more attention would be a GREAT car. Price is negotiable - asking $18,000. toddr@loislauer.com w/ ???? and for more pics.
