Porsche Model: 911

Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (Region): SoCAl

I had this car on Ebay a couple of weeks ago and the bidder backed out because he didn't want to deal with shipping... Anyhow, it runs well, I drove it cross country and back two months ago (the reason it was featured on Jay Leno's Garage). For pics and to read the story, go here:

www.KeepItWideOpen.com/amelia.html

The car is in great mechanical condition, but it's a ten-foot car... looks good from ten feet away. The AC and cruise control don't work and it needs a new rear view mirror (on the windshield) and driver's side door-stop. I believe it has the engine upgrades as it's got the eleven blade fan, but I'm 100% certain. The car is completely rust-free and was originally sold new in California, where it lives now. Any questions feel free to email me. Thanks!
It's in Venice, CA... and has been serviced by William Benoit in Venice for the last eight years. Good luck!

Will you take interesting trades?

How about Anthony Quinn's undershirt? He's a screen legend!

It's fairly easy. Go to 'advanced' and then 'attach files.' Should be pretty easy from there.

Also, are you sure you won't consider screen legend Anthony Quinn's shirt? It's got to be worth close to your asking (plus I might be able to throw in a necklace appraised at almost $8,000 to sweeten the deal).

Interesting read. My hats off to you for an honest post even though flawed. The Scarsdale dentist thing was way off the mark. Without that ludicrous comment your opinion might have had more weight to it.
