To many cars. I hate to sell it but its time to let somebody else take it to the next level. To much to list now but if you want to talk about it please PM me here with phone number.

Nice photos beautiful car,I had its twin years ago. an amazing color in person when fresh like this. I'll say that's a bargain for such a nice car considering that a 911 in that color and condition would cost you 4-5 times that much and I dont know that one would have that much more fun for his money than with this beauty. GLWTS
........ heck luck will not have anything to do, it will sell itself!

The green is fine. But, I like that 240D too! Stick is the only way to own one of Mercedes "slower" diesels.
(is it for sale?)

Good luck,

Tom

Sweet car, Bill. Someone's getting a hell of a deal.

Thanks everybody. Looks like its sold and maybe going back to where it came from in southern CA. Sort of a funny story about the car and its original owner. In 68 he purchased a silver 912, had it a few weeks and the car was stolen. His logic told him, "buy the ugliest damn car i can find, so nobody in thier right mind will even consider stealing it".

I've stayed in touch with the second owner, and kept him informed about the process of restoration. That was one of the terms of the sale. It was more of an adoption than a sale. I have really enjoyed the 912, and i know it is one that i will regret selling, but I've got another huge project waiting in the wings, an Italien delivery Dalmation blue/Tan 73E Targa. Has RS plastic fuel tank and other cool features. It is complete with all Mfi stuff. When I found it in Hopkinsville KY of all places it was made up like an impact bumper car. Keep looking everybody, there still are treasures out there. This one was 70 miles from my house.

Hey Tom-I just sold the 240! What a cool car. I bought it from the original owner who also lived in my home town of Paducah, Ky. She was a German lady who picked the car up at the factory in the summer of 83 and used the car to tour Switzerland that summer. She used the car as a daily driver until a camshaft failure caused her to park it about 3 years ago. I showed her the car this spring and she wanted to buy it back. I agreed to sell it back to her, (she offered to leave it to me in her will). Unfortunately she was unable stay at home due to failing health and now resides in a nursing home.

I guess where this post is going, these old cars are just so much fun, and they really don't cost so much. (At least the ones I choose) I know there are a lot of guys out there that think the hobby has gotten beyond the means of most of us, but I don't necessarily agree with that entirely. Keep vigilant in the search. You never know what might pop up in Craigslist tomorrow. Thanks again everybody. Bill
