Also hurts that it is a CIS car.
I agree that I need to fix the last few things. The problem with the original trim is its scratched up and doesn't look good next to the new paint. After working on the car off an on for 4 years I was just excited that it was finally drivable. I'm thinking now I will probably just keep the car. I don't plan on dropping the price anyway. I don't agree that its being a CIS car hurts it. Some like the 73.5 CIS cars.

The big problem for me is its just too hot to drive a non air car here in the summer. Now that's its starting to cool off I'm getting excited about driving it again. I was planning on using the money on the sale to work on my 71 and put a 3.2 motor in it. I think I'll go ahead and start on the 71 this winter, its just the wife would have been happier if I didn't have two old 911's at the same time.
