    119300002 Amazing Find Under G Body

    Just last week I read the "what is the fuel tank worth" thread and wondered what the chances are to find cars like these. When ever there is an old 911 for sale I get in the car drive there and go and have a look. Most of the cars are 911s not to much to report. So Saturday I went to look at this 69 in a G body. Can be a bargain... So I had a look. When I lifted the bonnet I had to contain myself. there sits the long range tank.
    Then I read the chassis number.... o my this must be significant. 119300002. The second 69 MFI car ever made. This must be one of the first long wheelbase cars ever made..... My thoughts start to run crazy...The first thing I did was phone my girlfriend saying I really think that the first cars like these are given to special people in porsche cirles. But lets tell that story next time, here is some pictures so long
