My 911SC was sold to a guy that walked up to me on the street and said he HAD to have it. He had gotten out of a AMG Mercedes, and approached me at a gas station in Las Vegas. He asked what it would take to buy it. I pulled an incredible number out of my butt, and said it. He said OK. We met at his bank (same as my bank), and traded money for pink. That was the last I saw of my car. In Nevada, we keep our plates, so he got it without plates. Several months later, I saw a new member here asking a question about a car that I recognized. Yes, it was my car. I emailed him and asked a question about the car that he would recognize. It was, in fact, the one.

He said he bought it from a schoolteacher in ABQ who couldn't stand the clutch (it had a heavier than usual clutch spring). She said she bought it from a dealer in Texas. I would have said that the guy I bought it from was taking it to Colombia.

He wanted to paint it, asked for a reference. I knew only one painter, and had seen a bunch of Kev's work.

He described a number of changes that had been made to the car (most of them inexplicable) in the 3 months that it had been gone.

Yes, it is an amazingly small world.
