Please everyone be patient with me on this one. I have so much interest, that I am trying to decide how to best give all interested parties an equal chance at it.

I am considering sending it to ebay just to take the emotion out of the sale, unless someone else can suggest a better method.

I have a running list of people who have reached out in order. If anyone that reached out interested in the past, and no longer are interested after seeing photos and video's let me know.

Thanks for everyone's interest & patience with me,

Matt

Your comment about ebay is an honest and fair one, but you may find that loses you some buyers, but may get you some new ones. If you want the market to determine value that is a good place to go.
I am still interested. Looks like a very fun car!

Thanks for your feedback. Agree with your comment, but I guess I just don't know an easier way to deal with lots of interest. This also cuts out a lot of tire kickers like I had LOTS of with my last car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

First of all Matt, thank you for your quick responses, it's amazing the amount of attention you've given right after your return.

A few questions:
-you had mentioned good compression numbers, what are they?
-do you have leak down numbers?
-do you have the build specs, date and current mileage on rebuild?
-is the oil tank a 914-6 tank or a 911, any idea why it wasn't fitted inside the fender?
-might be the answer to the above, but is the engine cooler modified correctly for a 6?
-engine mount looks like a quick 6 with additional reinforcing, is that correct?
-do you have the logbooks from previous race history, anything current?
-any issues with title or registration?

TIA

Compression checked by Don Wise's Auto Works in Campbell ca was: 140,132,127,126,127,122 (the higher numbers he thinks is carbon deposits)

Leak down I do not.

Engine specs from previous owner:
"Case: Aligned boned, squinters installed shuffle pinned, time certs
New chains/ramps/bearings, New rings, Crank turned and drilled for oiling
40 Webers rebuilt by Eurometrics

Unknown milage but I suspect low, as it sit in the garage most of its life.

Oil tank is two 911 units modified to hold more oil (15+ quarts), I suspect it was done this way for access (racing) and affordability.

Yes, looks like a quick 6 mount with additional bracing.

I have no racing log books, but could put the buyer in touch with the previous owner who raced the car.

Car is clean title and road ready with no issues.

Like I had posted earlier that the value was in the engine, someone probably needs that S engine for a 911S they are rebuilding...the car is just a bonus (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Wouldn't surprise me if someone on early S registry is after it....

I took a shot at it, but it is beyond my discretionary budget. Would you consider cash and a 1970 with a 1911 in it?

Yea, it really did shoot up faster than anticipated. Your 1911 looks like a nice car, but unfortunately I am headed a different direction from air cooled. Maybe time to turbo it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
