It's going to bodymotion in NJ for a full PPI. I'll keep everyone posted.

Yeah, I realize now it's not much of a barnfind sorry to mislead. I believe it was originally delivered in IL so no thermal reactors to my knowledge.

Are those alloy front calipers?
Great looking car.

That picture definitely supports ths low mileage (paint, wheels, plating on the front caliper etc) so this is a very promising car IMO.

With the 11 blade fan, it seem the P.O. understood the car and its needs. If the thermal reactors are not already off, then that is the only change that I would make immediately.

The 2.7s don't have the longevity of the 3.0s or 3.2s, but getting rid of the above-mentioned bug-a-boos will go a long way toward extending the life of the motor before it needs a rebuild.

Bottom line: If I was in the market for something nice and this car was in my price range, I would definitely check it out (as you are).

Good luck!

That looks great. And - don't poo poo the 2.7 engine. A well cared for 2.7 have some good scoot. I know I surprised more than a few cars with my old engine.

Fantastic interior and exterior! If you buy it don't change a thing. Unmolested 74-77 cars are few and far between.

Thats a nice looking 911. Good luck with the purchasing process. You may want to consider purchasing a membership here; Best $18 you'll spend. Also, look into a membership with PCA (Porsche Club America). Both will be huge resources for you.
