Default HAVE YOU SEEN THIS CAR....?

My 911 love affair started with my father's dream purchase of a Guards Carrera 3.2...

One day I promised myself I would own his... unfortunately before the time was right he sold it on... ever since I have tried to track it down... he can't remember the dealer he sold it to...

Has anyone seen this car.... A lead would be so appreciated.... my father and I would love to purchase it again...

These pictures were taken around 6 years ago...

You might try listing the VIN or doing a search on it.

Also, try the Impact Bumper forum: www.impactbumpers.com
They have a strong UK presence and may be able to help.

Good Luck with the Search. I hope you can find her and that the owners since have been as good to her as you probably were.

Nice....a 911 with Phone Dials! My Dad's 86 (Guards Red) that he sold about a year ago had phonies on it. I think they actually look very good on that car. His original plan was to buy Gold BBS for it but when it came him the Phone Dials just looked nice so he kept them.

He replaced the the 3.2 with a 2010 GT3.

Frank:
Not sure how picky the rules/regs are in the UK but could you ask the police to do a VIN # search either up front or thru back channels? Dont give up on the search we met a (now) dear family friend from the UK over an Isetta.

Best.

In the US, VIN numbers are often tied to license plate numbers in the local states databases. If you don't have the VIN, you may be able to get it that way. Then you can track down the last location of registration...

Good luck!

Iceman: Yes we did post my dad's car on here when we sold it.

And he still says he misses his 3.2.
