I haven't seen it but I just spoke with the owner and told him about our special CLUB!! He bought it in 1972 with 9000 miles on it. He is asking $12.9K

Is the guy's name Ian? English?

He seems to buy up 914/6s and fix them up. Last time I saw he had a green one.

Well, if it is, he hasn't done a good job on this one. Let's see, bought it in 1972, fixed it up for 32 years, and now selling it.

Who would do something stupid like that?

Does anyone have Ian Fitzsimons email? He sold me my 914 and disappeared.

I saw Ian about a month ago or so........maybe he is traveling?, I didn't know he dealt with 914's, I thought he was only a 911 guy, but I guess not........

I've got his phone number laying around someplace

Yep thats the one!

Sorry for leaving you guys hanging!! I am purchasing a new house and I had to put mine on the market today!! Got a place on the water at Discovery Bay!!

I spoke with him this afternoon and he seems like a nice guy! Anyone who wants his number drop me a PM! I don't think he would want me to post it here!

I spoke with him about 1.5 years ago about this car. he is a nice old guy. I can't believe he did not sell it yet. I never saw it in person because it was a color change, but he sounds honest. last time it was listed for sale in the sf chronicle.

Patrick,

I knew your car looked familiar! I looked at it about a year and a half ago before I bought my car. Ian was nice but he seemed a little frustrated when I decided not to buy it, plus he didn't let me test drive. He had a bunch of early 911s on the street in front of his house.
