G5032 Posted 2August, 2014 Report Share Posted 2August, 2014 On the plus side it's a HK not a UK import (or converted from LHD) , had a very recent top end and seems to have been serviced at some reputable shops... JV911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugh Posted 2August, 2014 Report Share Posted 2August, 2014 On the plus side it's a HK not a UK import (or converted from LHD) , had a very recent top end and seems to have been serviced at some reputable shops... +1 If it is straight car (like he says it is) and been well maintained it would be worth a look. HK shouldn't be a deal breaker IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Man Posted 2August, 2014 Report Share Posted 2August, 2014 Certainly worth a look, but I would not expect this to move as quickly as an Aussie C2! hugh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike D'Silva Posted 2August, 2014 Report Share Posted 2August, 2014 bit of a strange question... but how would the masses view a 964 tiptronic? compared to say a 964C4.... compared to a HK Import? Is there any desire for a tiptronic at all? Are they a 4 or 5 speed? Do they operate the same as my Cayman (minus the buttons on the wheel)?

Is there any desire for a tiptronic at all? Are they a 4 or 5 speed? Do they operate the same as my Cayman (minus the buttons on the wheel)? But what do you think? That's the important bit, right? The 964 tip was the first conventional slush box in a 911. I've never driven one bit they will always be less sought after. But for a daily drive they are probably fine. I wouldn't care about HK import. If it's a good car it's a good car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzieman Posted 3August, 2014 Report Share Posted 3August, 2014 The HK 964 has had two top end rebuilds and it's only done 130,000km! Cheap to buy but very expensive to maintain, these 964s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamr Posted 3August, 2014 Report Share Posted 3August, 2014 So, where do you feel the "mistake" is with the '75 Carrera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has certainly put some time and effort into it. Am I the only one here that loves Design 90 wheels on 964's? That look of '90's sophistication like shoulder pads and permed hair!

JV911 Posted 3August, 2014 Report Share Posted 3August, 2014 So, where do you feel the "mistake" is with the '75 Carrera? - If it was a Carrera 2.7 the price would be preceeded by a 1 - SC badge on the engine lid - Carreras should have MFI - The guards are throwing me though - they are either SC or actually Carrera (75 non-carrera would be narrow body) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamr Posted 3August, 2014 Report Share Posted 3August, 2014 Really interesting..... I didn't know they had fuel injection on these In '75... . Thought the SC hood badge might just have been put there... The guards also had me a little stumped... I didn't think they even looked wide enough to be SC guards... Thanks for the info....

Dreamr Posted 3August, 2014 Report Share Posted 3August, 2014 So, what's the thought.... If it was an SC, it would have a 6 digit odo... If it was a Carrera, it would have CIS.... ????? My gut tells me it looks older than '78, therefore pre SC..... (but I'm no expert..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orignal panels and vear box. No matching number case, but everything else is original. Leather interior faultless and mechanicLly sound. Colour is original which isnfjord green.

michel Posted 4August, 2014 Report Share Posted 4August, 2014 I think you'll find it is late 75 build so a 76. Nothing fancy but looks clean and liking the beige. Gearbox only a 'replaced what needed' and engine only reassembled by Poole motor sports.perhaps not all parts replaced - so possible a partial rebuild albeit totally stripped and buttoned up.
