    Oath for future owner of Gramps

    Okay raise your right hand and repeat after me:

    "I (next owner of this gem) will not, even under thread of torture, repaint the original paint on this car and replace the original seals and become the biggest kunckle head in the world".




    This is one of the most honest early 911s I know of, a true gem that is indeed almost all original paint and has its original seals and, yes Tom, he runs like a banshee.

    I love Irish Green... My brother's 66 was Irish Green. I wanted that car so badly but he sold it out from under me.

    I hate my brother...

    Ok...

    This is gospel...

    There are very few previously owned cars on this registry with pedigree. This car is one of them, if so says Tom aka Sithot.

    Tom's legend is longer than he has been alive... but I trust him without reserve. I've known about this car for many years, and I'm glad it's surfaced to be be documented.

    Buy this car without reservation!!!!!

    Oh no, Gramps is for sale?! I second Brian's sentiments - if the next owner does anything with this car other than drive and wash it, they should be beat. This is a no excuses original car that drives like a dream and yes Tom, you just have to not rush the shift into second. I really like this car and wish it could stay in the Midwest.

    My memory is fair and I'd swear that second was good; it was 3rd for me. I ran it the way it was intended and it always asked for more.

    I was only a bit pissed when I learned that "a well known broker" removed the R Seat from it before he sold it. Dead wrong.

    It had that seat when I got it and it was in it when I sold it (along with the original). There is a lesson here in honesty and fair play.

    Car should sell in the $50's. If it brings more I'll eat humble pie. Brian Fryar's (Patrick) recent aquistion (off E-Bay) at $68K is a great example. No disrespect but $92K is a fishing trip. Patrick is better documented.
