Re: 68 911s Collecting cars
That looks very well indeed.
I panicked when I saw a 1188 Targa chassis number in the text but the VIN plates are 1180 so just a typo.

Re: 68 911s Collecting cars
A friend asked me to look at the auction , he was attracted by the Historika resto , and its an S and supposedly matching numbers but no CoA seen.
I found it hard to read the documentation on the site and thought the pictures were not very professional or detailed.
Armed with only that to go on , I would need to either have a proper inspection or go look myself and have a road test....I have been spoilt by BringA Trailer's fully loaded product descriptions for online auctions!
To answer your question , I dont know the car , looks nice , maybe a punt at up to 90k is my opinion ...just a few hours to wait and see !

Re: 68 911s Collecting cars
I totally agree Jason. I should really buy this car as I have a complete spare set of the correct trim. Then I could put it back up on collecting cars and punters would say ‘what a car, it’s worth £10k more now’.
Who spends £90k on a car just from pictures? Who knows what’s hiding……
Regards
Mike

Cant help with the carbs but I do have an ultra rare set of rhd H1’s for it if you want to drive it in the UK.

Not long to go now , assume only the seller knows what the reserve is....maybe the Italian racing driver will buy it....

Re: 68 911s Collecting cars
Only saw 80k reached . There was an extra bit of documentation put up late on , letter from Porsche with build data , the engine number looked different to that shown in one of the mechanical pictures , unfortunately I did not record the number on the letter !
