Great post Stretch......... welcome
Thanks Massimo
Believe me the Alpine is such a beauty in this yellow color, really lowride and wide. I really enjoyed the "chasing", watching in the visor this pure race lengendary cars behind me. I do have a cool video on Youtube for this day (Autodrome Heritage Festival - Montlhery France)
Cheers

[QUOTE=Stretch32;595311]My first Porsche, a one owner '71T with original interior.
And original everything else from the looks of it. This and dadoflefthander's car look very nice! Tell more, guys!
Will be searching for the video ... I participated to a rally organised by the Exclusive Alpine Club of Belgium ... I agree on you about the A110!!!

A friend and Porsche fan locally found it after I expressed an interest in an early 911 (I had been considering a late 356B/C intially until I drove his '72T). He got a call from the original owner's wife that she was interested in selling it on since it's been driven very little since her husband's passing in the late '90's. I really lucked out as everything fell into place and I was able to buy at a pretty good price. It's got around 85,000 original miles with a supposed rebuild and an exterior respray (in a sightly darker shade than it's original Albert blue) right before the orginal owner passed away. It needs a few items since it's really been in storage, although it has been driven periodically, the last 13 years. I'll need to sort a few oil leaks and I've discovered a few electrical gremlins that seem to be related to dirty contacts and bad grounds. Overall it's a really solid car with no rust and only a few dings and scrapes. I'd love a set of deep-6's but otherwise I'll just leave it as is and enjoy.
