Re: AFN RHD 911s Production numbers

Good data Mike . Do you have the split between My72 and My 73 rather than combined? Curious to see if RS cannibalized the S in 73 as not a lot of price difference One old gent I knew was talked into upgrading not very old 911 S for new RS when they were concerned if they'd sell them. He could afford...

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet

Old car stuff rarely dies it just circulates...case in point I'll bring along a working Blaupunkt Frankfurt c1967 that hasn't been out of my loft since I picked it up at the HC swap meet a quarter of a century ago! Never had a mid 60s 911 but I had to have it. Reminds me of converstion with an older...

Re: Possible to obtain ownership history from the DMV?

I do not put my car vin or photos on www despite at times being rudely rudly harangued to do so. That is because on www cars get identity misused. I understand the stance of companies and governments and have been trained on data privacy by companies fearful of breaching new laws. People are right t...

Re: Seinfeld sued over fake Porsche sale

Are you sure as I went though it and have looked? Don't believe the pesto "expert" report per se was/is on pelican or esr. There is a letter published by a.n.other purporting to be from the person who was the "expert" at that trial confirming their "expert" role but unl...

Was disappointed in his recent purchases by comparison. Threw more money at it still same result. Sometimes things fr...
