I think it could be #139 (you missed that one Brian ;) ):
Tangerine Touring model which came originally equipped with sport seats L&R (although it seems to have 'lost' its radio & antenna).
Hi Andy,
I saw that chasis listing but 139 doesn't have a sunroof listed so I dismissed it as our eBay Orange mystery first series RS does have one.
Okay Cees, give it up. Which chasis # is it? :D
Brian, I am still in the dark as you on that RS. The guy never replied on my question so to reveal the number we have to wait until somebody sees that car in Essen, end of March is that show I believe. Sorry guys!
Cees
For those who are interested, the seller has listed the chassis # as 0188 in an update yesterday.Quote:

"1973 PORSCHE 911 RS TOURING COUPE
--White with Blue Graphics, 47,000 original miles, 15x7” & 15x8” wheels.
This Carrera RS serial # 911 360 1189, Engine # 6631154, Gearbox # 831137 is a matching numbers example. It was restored to Lightweight specification in the late 1980’s.
This RS is proper, honest, straight and well maintained throughout and drives as it should.
This RS is available with recent ownership and maintenance history and owner’s manual."
Prices have been FLAT since July of '07. These cars have stumbled before. They got into the big numbers in the late 80's and then sank all the way back to "reality". $195K is top dollar "by the book" where there is no "emotional correction" figure.
It could be "rest/test period" or indication that a correction is in store. This particular car belonged one of our members. He's quite pleased to have made this move out of it and into his new toy.

Is this one of us here? He has a great sense of humor, whoever he is.
Ebay #170200259900
It's none other than Frank B. of Phoenix...:eek: :D
and, yes, that's a GREAT write up! ...I can only imagine what a ball he has with anyone slow enough to miss the point & humor. :cool:
