I had no idea that this car could fetch a price like that..... wow.

Especially with a non-original engine.... damn.

I'm going to watch this..... just out of curiosity....

The last 4 cam engine I built cost the customer 65K and he had a good core!

Reall Carreras have 4 cams and the engine is like working on a Swiss watch... Setting the timing alone is amazingly difficult.

I'm surprised when a four-cammer comes up for sale. These are usually negotiated between those in the know. Very rare and very expensive.

Here is a 1956 Carrera Chassis I just bought. I have been after it for 14 years. It was hit in the rear HARD in 1969. Sitting every since.

If you ever decide you'd like to trade that for a 5' 100 lb German woman with an attitude, just let me know. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Oh yeah, she can cook too...
