Downsizing so must part with this stunning 1967 912 matching numbers soft window targa that spent the first 38 years of existence in the California desert. I bought car in Oct 2005 from a collector who was the owner a premier body shop in Fort Wayne Indiana who purchased the car to display in his showroom. He insisted that the car still had the original paint other than the front lower valance was touched up and the right door was meticulously corrected (painted). The story was that the original owner was big on waxing the car but not removing the wax. When the second owner bought the car there was over 1/8” of wax protecting it. I don’t know for sure if that is true or not but the paint and overall condition of the car is amazing. I would prefer who ever purchases the car inspect the car or have it inspected. The only thing I have done since I purchased the car is replace the brakes, front shocks, and add a set of (5) 5 ½ X 15” Fuchs. It comes with the original 4 ½ painted steel wheels which were restored by the body shop in Indiana. The Fuchs currently on the car were restored by Weidmans Wheels in 2006 and have less than 2000 miles on them with no curb rash. I also have a set of (4) 4 ½’’ Fuchs which would be correct for 1967 I might be willing to part with for an additional price.
The engine was rebuilt approximately 6000 miles ago and the transmission (4 speed) is smooth through all gears. I have never had any problems, my wife and I drove this car home from Indiana to Oregon over 3,000 miles without a hitch. Judging from the number of receipts I have this car has never been abused or lacked maintenance. It was obviously worshipped be the original owner. The documentation by the original owner is included and contains all or almost all of maintenance performed up 2000. I am looking to sell the car so I can have the resources to play with my other P cars. I thought I would post it here first to see if there is any interest. My strong point is buying rather than selling with my cars (never done this before). If you are truly interested in this car give me a call or a time and number to call you with more information.
