this car is just around the corner. it's in a side yard under a cloth cover. I talked to him for the first time this evening and he asked me more questions than I asked him. is it a 930 or a 911? (I almost busted a gut) he was asking me what it was! he saw it at a swap meet and paid $15,000 in green cash money just cause he liked it. it had a weard looking blue VIN plate on the door jam from california. I hope the pictures down loaded ok.

 

you work for CIA doug?

 

he said it was a little oriental man that imported it from germany years ago and never got it to pass smog so it never saw the street. he said it was a 1977, more likely he should have said an '87. I can't get the bigger pictures to download on my dial up.

 

if you haven't figured it out by now I have a thing for the white slant nose cab porsche. I think it's the 935 disorder.

 

make him an offer!

 

here is the money shot. shaynes, what do you think? he said it has only seen the freeway once, and only went 80. some how the heat exchangers were scraped up and alot of oil on the belly....I should have gotten a shot of the VIN

 

offer on it.

 

He could tell you but then.....................well, you know the rest.



Good work Agent Bray.

 

he wanted to know what the extra door was for under the trunk (smuglers box). he said "I think it is a gas heater that runs on unleaded" he didn't like my "80 pounds of dead weight" answer...

 

he wanted to show me his dodge truck....thought I would get just as excited about it. he wants to trash the 17" RUF's in favor of pimpin' 19's. please some one save this car. 20 of us could each put in a grand and save it from this side yard life.

 

chuck, it's red and it sorta slants in the front, yours probly has an engine....

 

Nice find.

 

you are not going to believe the spy pictures I got today. a little black slantnose in a prison yard with other frankinporsche. it's a sad sad day.

 

It's got Ruf wheels, but I'm guessing it isn't a Ruf......

The gas heater theory isn't a bad one, as the old 911's had a Webasco gas heater that went in there. He probably heard of these discussed at some point, and thought they all have them. I believe someone told me recently, you can still buy them from the factory as NOS.

Did it have a turbo engine?

 

pics of front trunk but no pics of engine bay?
