I wish I could convince my wife (and myself) that either of those are in my price range. One thing to note on the ebay Zambezi is that it was a 2.0 swapped into a 1.7, so it doesn't have all the default bells and whistles.

Also, the seller notes that it is "a true 914 type PORSCHE rear reflector, not the cut down 911 version". Was there such a thing?

(Where's that "looking around the house for stuff to sell" smiley?) dry.gif

Any news on the delphi green?

Posted by: Ferg Mar 15 2006, 11:41 AM

I talked to the seller this week, I'm going to pass, so PPI no longer needed.

My hunt continues.

What was wrong with it?

Posted by: Ferg Mar 15 2006, 12:29 PM

nothing really, but my standards are super high rolleyes.gif

what I didn't like was, respray was a litte off color
no real engine or trans history.
