    Exclamation WTB: Engine #903188 - Last seen in LA

    Hi all! Engine # 903188 was up on eBay back in March 2012. It looks like it was up there for quite a while. Does anyone know where it is now? According to PCNA, that is the engine that came in my car. Below is the eBay link. Any and all help is greatly appreciated! Demetri

    Did you contact the seller?

    I sent Ben at Porforauto an email last night. He replied this morning saying he thinks it went to Japan. I am hoping he can verify.

    dporsche, can you contact your friend in the UK and verify.

    That engine has been out of the car for thirty years, probably stayed in CA the whole time, and then goes overseas when I start looking for it. This is awesome!

    Selling the car would be tough. It has been in the family for 30 years. First right of refusal goes to my uncle. Let's find the motor first and then start thinking selling.

    DO NOT sell the car ... been in the family for 30 years?? How could you sell?

    The guy with the OG motor should do the right thing...there's always a way to make all parties happy. Find the compromise and live happily ever after.
