Here are some pics of Alex's '72 3.6. Hagerty currently has it insured for an agreed value of $60K. Add it up, you can't easily duplicate the car for that. I have had the pleasure to help do the final detailing and setup on this car and drive it a fair bit. You would be hard pressed to find a faster or better handling naturally aspirated 911 street car.

If I didn't have a new car just coming out of the shop, this one wouldn't be for sale here now. It is a unrefined power house, a bit noisy inside, great sound outside without drawing unwanted attention. Brutal torque, and a handfull for anyone but the very best 911 drivers when driven hard. Awe inspiring as a street legal race car. The car is very well setup and balanced. The key is the judiciious use of the right foot. Typical balk of a 915 with 250# of torque and 270 HP. Take your time shifting of rebuild the box. A lot of superlatives describe this car. Words just aren't going to encompasses this driving experience.

Alex won't tell you that. He'd rather just take you for a spin in the 3.6 and let you make up your own mind. This car draws attention by it's looks when parked and by the new Turbos trying to catch up when you are on the road.
