I think that the 27k orange /6 saw a track event at Tremblant. I think it was rebuilt by Deman motorsports in NY.
Ok for the /6 now. Soap box mode on: I've seen it, i've touched it and worked on it. How can someone from the other coast say ''Oh, ok I know that car. I am not saying anything more''. Please tell us more! Read the description. The guy's pretty straight about the condition of the car. It's a rattle can paint job, the flares are cracking and need to be adressed the engine is parly assembled and fresh, has webers. The front A-arm poly bushing need to be massaged or replaced, etc... As for rust, the hell hole has been adressed. As for the price, it may sound a little high but try to find a decent /6 conversion in the northeast. I'd suggest you go see several 914's including this one. it's woth seing it. And yes farleyd is a good friend of mine. I may be biased but it's definalty not a car i'd run away from... I just don't understand that kind of comment. If my father didn't by a 70 911T, i'd get him to pick this one up. Soap box mode off. Marc-andré |
