Wouldn't a 1975 Bumblebee be the rarest of the rare though and be worth much more?

Super rare. The bumpers give it away. It's a backdated 75 Bumble bee.
Love it....pretty snazzy I need a loan and a plane ticket.

It sure looks nice in the one picture! Maybe it's time to invest for retirement...
Posted by: burton73 Sep 6 2018, 05:10 PM
I do not think it is a real Bumble Bee, but if nice black paint with the orange accidents and a nice 2.0 than I will be a nice valuable car to own. I owned a 74-factory black car with Chrome bumpers back in 79. Nice
The price is very low if it is in good shape.

How can someone one call this car "numbers matching" when no engine or trans numbers are supplied on the COA?

I mean I did just sell my 73, but that was to pay myself back for buying the 77 911. The wife would definitely murder me

Agreed...I saw that too. When the engine # is not indicated on a COA it means the owner supplied engine number did not match PCNA's records. That can only mean one thing...

Yes. Or, they didn't provide an engine number (unlikely)

I may be mistaken... but, in the photo of the COA it appears that...
'Can Am' Limited Edition ... was typed on a different machine.
Letters not as bold or dark as the rest of the document.

It's the angle and lighting. All the text in the right column look similar.

Yea, you want to use a service.
Posted by: Rav914 Sep 9 2018, 11:29 AM
I bought a '93 Mercedes in B.C. a couple of years ago. It was fairly straightforward, no issues. Because the 914 is older than 25 years, it's less of a hassle. I didn't use a service.
