Thread: W: Albert Blue 911

  1. #11
    I also have a 1972 Albert Blue T.
    It is an incredible color and car that will not disappoint.
    I have owned it for 15 years or so years.
    I have been recently throwing the idea around about swapping it out for the right SWB 2.0 car.
    But I do know once this car leaves my stable it would be extremely hard to replicate another 72 as nice as this one.

    Thanks!

    Concerning the 72E on consignment at Legendary Motorcars: I also called Legendary about this car a few weeks ago. The salesman told me that it was restored by European Collectables several years ago. He mentioned that it was not a perfect car but should be considered a "driver". I inquired about the lack of A/C and associated vents under the dash as this was indicated on the COA. He, unfortunately, didn't have any information about why this feature was omitted or when. He also mentioned that it had a 915 transmission as would be correct for a '72 although I wasn't sure based on the pictures as it appeared more like the 901's found in earlier model years based on the size of the boot. I'm not an expert but aren't 915's shift cases raised off the floor several inches and subsequently have a much larger shift boot? The car does come with the original steering wheel although I didn't ask for a picture to ascertain it's condition.

    For the price this might be a great car but as others have stated, there are some real question marks here and a PPI is a must. I live too far away to stick handle this one and dropped out as far as consideration is concerned.

    That shift boot is correct for a 1972 915; 1973 had a larger boot.

    I love the amount of shared knowledge on this site. Now I know!

    Thank you for those that have reached out with Targa bodied Albert Blue cars, I really have my heart set on the coupe. If anyone has one (or maybe a friend has one in a driving group) and would consider passing it to it's next caretaker for a reasonable price, please let me know! Thank you!

    He is a gentleman and has been fantastic about sharing info. I believe he is still deciding if he wants to part with it and pursue a SWB.

    Thanks for keeping the eyes peeled, folks! I find the red interior really works with the darker colors (grey blue black). What do you all think?

    Also, thanks to those that have reached out privately with Albert Blue possibilities. Still on the hunt!
