Stolen Car: 9112300871 Engine 632 1334 - 1972 Porsche 911 2.4S in Switzerland

Dear All,

From 2007 to 2013/14 I was a frequent visitor here and was/am deeply grateful for all your help and cameraderie in restoring my 1972 2.4S "Matilda". I haven't been active on the S Registry in a long time, as my family situation has taken my focus away from early 911s.

Some of you will have read Karim's thread on the engine stolen from his car: http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...n-Switzerland&

Unfortunately, my beloved car was also in this shop and is now missing in its entirety as I discovered four weeks ago when I went over to pick it up.

Here is my info:

Porsche 911 2.4S
1972
Chassis no. 9112300871
Matching engine no. 632 1334
Swiss-delivered, fully restored

Car lost/stolen/sold to unknown.

Any whereabouts of the car / information would be helpful, any people who today or in future are in possession of this car might contact its rightful owner, me.

Regards, Guru

Very Sorry to hear this Guru as it's a beautiful car that you've undoubtably invested a lot of time and effort in. I hope you all find these cars and parts before they're compromised.

I still feel the possibility that these cars can still be stolen! It's like you steal the monalisa ... Where do you hide it? For how long? I join your feelings of loss! I will be attentive to the Spanish market in case something of the year 72 comes up.Saluds and try to make it a happy year!
¡Todavía siento la posibilidad de que estos autos aún puedan ser robados! Es como si te robaras la monalisa ... ¿Dónde la escondes? ¿Por cuanto tiempo? Me uno a tus sentimientos de perdida! Estaré atento al mercado español en caso de que surja algo del año 72.Saluds y trata de que sea un año feliz!

Sorry to hear this. I’m betting that you’ll get it back.

Assuming the person who “bought” it is probably also very sick/pissed and trying to figure out what to do. Sooner or later he’ll need to give it up or face being charged with a crime.

Best of luck. Looks like a beautiful car.

The problem is many countries will not get involved, even if you prove it was stolen. Such was the case here with a Speedster that was stolen and popped up in Japan.

I hope this owner of the 911 gets his car back.

Guru,

Sorry to hear this news and by inference that the whole shocking thing is not resolved given the scale and how much scrutiny there is on old 911 cars and bits bought and sold for our hobby in this age of the www. Like Frank I am optimistic that the property will emerge at some point given the small world -- more likely in this situation than maybe if one car or engine was spirited away hopefully. Is the person who had possession still not talking?

Sound like you've got your hands full with family situation so don't need this further aggravation.

I've already alerted people in the "trade" in my network about Karim's plight.

Best
Steve

Now posted on the International/European forum of the RGruppe message board as well....

Holy crap!!! Unbelievable. Sick. Sad.

Hi Guru, in the past months a car matching your model and colour scheme has been offered for sale at Autoglaser Kütschlihof, CHF 180k. Possibly the same car?
Liebe Grüsse
