Paint and ac in a box will hurt you, but still you should be in the 20k range...

If ours was running I would sell it to you Sid. It is of course white.

The preferred color of 911 for the discerning driver and Stijner.

Yes, it is a 71. New clutch and cable. It does need to be repainted.

My pediatrist used to autocross his M5 at our local autocross. He was the previous owner of Brian Miller's 944 Turbo. He now DD a Buick Grand National. Says he loves burning rubber in 3rd gear by just mashing the bas.

Don't know what this option is called, and couldn't find it in the option codes or on the build-your-own list, But I LIKE IT!

True! That option post above will as well.

Looks like the one in Bend has been in an accident.

Richard that is the Bimbo option. It is VERY expensive and available to folks with much bigger checkbooks than yours. It is much like an American Express black card. That $5,000 per year fee and a minimum of $250,000 per year spent on the card keep me away.
