michel Posted 6April, 2016 Report Share Posted 6April, 2016 (edited) Sounds pretty standard, albeit with red wheels . Sounds more like it's a home built Carrera 3.0 without a Carrera 3 crank? Based on what he's saying your buying a rust free clean shell with repaint and rebuilt engine. Objectively 75k, if receipts and other docs support it offers value for the ' enthusiast' driver, who cares nought about fashion, numbers matching or been brow beaten by even more real enthusiasts for not buying a car with good km's, 4 owner cool colour full documentation etc. That sought of enthusiast would be more inclined to buy something like this : Edited 6April, 2016 by michel symsy, edgy, Hughesy and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michel Posted 6April, 2016 Report Share Posted 6April, 2016 Changed it to clam shell...thiugh the silver g series car could be a great driving owning proposition. Particularly like it for the fact it's a Sporto and for the anorak a tourist delivery. All you need is the orig case and a tartan interior.. Hang on that sounds like my 76 Sporto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its gone from 70k to 85k to 78k to 75k on the last 3~4 weeks..The engine blows smoke on startup - valve stem seals, so I'm uncertain how that constitutes an engine rebuild. Pulls like a train, great grin factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, 75k still too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter M Posted 6April, 2016 Report Share Posted 6April, 2016 The engine blows smoke on startup - valve stem seals, so I'm uncertain how that constitutes an engine rebuild. More likely related to the oil tank being higher than the cylinders and the oil draining back through the oil pump after sitting a while.

WOKA Posted 6April, 2016 Report Share Posted 6April, 2016 (edited) ^Just what the P mechanic told me.. I'm far from an expert. It's a nicer thought though. Anyone know anything about THIS 944..?
