I was just casually looking at this car and before I knew what was happening, I started making offers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Now it's on the way to me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

1973 signal orange. 1 owner the last 29 years. Original radio..everything works except cigarette lighter and washer squiters.

This was the non original engine that I posted a question about "value". It was upgraded to a 1911 back in 01.

Dual 34ICT Weber carbs - 1911cc w/96mm pistons & liners - hydraulic lifters, (no valve clearance adjusting) - street performance cam - hardened valve seats - high volume oil pump - auxiliary oil cooler w/fan -Pertronix breakerless ignition, (never change points again) - 911 turbo tie rods - Bilstein struts & shocks - Bursch muffler - hybrid hi-torque starter - rebuilt front calipers - German rebuilt ATE rear calipers - parking brake works - virtually all rubber has been replaced - carpet replaced - vinyl on seats & back panel as well as fuzzy strip in windows replaced - original radio still works - flawless dash. Turn signal/dimmer & wiper/washer mechanisms have been replaced - factory Pedrini alloys w/correct center caps.

I will probably engage the good Dr. to refresh the 901; 1st and 2nd are sensitive on downshifting. All shifter bushings have been replaced.

I will update the VIN Registry (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) ; it's not in there currently.

All southern car it's entire life, so very dry (I know, I know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) ). 1 respray, but that was way back in 01.

Everyone always asks for pictures, so here is what I have so far.
