Well, another chapter of my life closed today. . . This was my 3rd Six, and the nicest. . Doing the restoration was my enjoyment, and showing it for the past 8 years was somewhat fun, but it was just too nice to drive. . . I created a monster and the only way out was to let it go and maybe start over. . .
Can't say enough good things about this site and the members who have a reputation of helping each other out, Luke managed to find a couple of the harder Six parts when I was doing the restoration. . I'll be looking for a GT project on the "Cars for Sale" page, something i can drive and have fun with. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Beautiful car... I've had a few of these 'too nice to drive' cars and they are fun to show but do rob the joy of ownership by not wanting to ever get it dirty, wet or have to park it anywhere unattended. I like you would rather have a very nice driver and money in my pocket.

I like you would rather have a very nice driver and money in my pocket. I had a near perfect 912E same deal I was always worried about parking etc. I sold it to a friend and his wife parked it at the grocery store and someone opened there car door on it hard put a big crease down the side, no more worries.
