White Exterior / Red Interior VIN: 129041875 2 Doors, Rear Wheel Drive, Coupe, 4 Cylinders, Manual Inventory ID: 041875 Vehicle Description In the car restoration business there are times when you go too far, you take too long and you spend too much money. This car represents one of those times. I bought this car from a kindly older gentleman in Austin, Texas in the Summer of 2014. At the time I bought it, it had a VW engine in it, it had no brakes, it had multiple rust holes in the pan and its tattered black carpeting had been screwed to the floor pan (yes, there were actual screws holding the carpet to the pan ... ugggggghhh). However, being the left handed maniac that I am, I saw no pitfalls - only potential. Magnificent, magnificent potential. Being the adventurous sort (and lacking any semblance of common sense), I bought the car. And, at that precise moment, the "trouble" began. And by "trouble" I mean a car that needed virtually everything replaced. And by everything, I really do mean everything. Starting in late 2014 and continuing up to and until now (about 15 months later), I had the following work performed on this car: Installed a ZERO MILE 912 engine (currently has less than 500 miles - NOT numbers matching); Powder coated all engine tin; New plugs; New plug wires; New distributor cap, points and rotor; New alternator belt; New rear main seal and valve cover gaskets; New oil filter; New motor mounts; Installed new OEM style exhaust; Rebuilt transmission (4 speed); Replaced all transmissions gaskets; Replaced transmission mounts; Installed new clutch, pressure plate and TO bearing; Rebuilt front suspension; Replaced front strut mounts; Rebuilt rear suspension; Performed 4 wheel alignment; Rebuilt rear axles and CV joints; Replaced front strut inserts, Replaced front rubber strut stops; Replaced rear shocks; Replaced tie rod ends with Turbo tie rod ends; Replaced ball joints; Replaced all wheel bearings and seals; Replaced pedal bushings and rebuilt pedal cluster; Replaced clutch pedal spring; Replaced shift rod bushings; Rebuilt shift coupler; Replaced all "soft" brake lines; Replaced front and rear rotors; Rebuilt all calipers (painted red); Replaced all brake pads; Replaced master cylinder; Installed new engine sound proofing; Installed new hood shocks; Installed new floor pans; Replaced gas tank support; Undercoated entire car; Replaced wiper blades; Powder coated windshield wiper arms; Powder coated rear deck grill; Powder coated rear "PORSCHE" and "912" scripts; Powder coated shift coupler cover; Powder coated ash tray; (yes, I cant believe I did this too!); Rebuilt eBrake assembly; Replaced horn contact button; Replaced rear quarter window seals; Replaced eBrake lever boot and shift lever boot; Replaced shift rod boot; Replaced hot air hoses; Replaced suspension pan plate; Replaced all bumper to body seals; Painted all bumpers red; Installed new carpet; Installed new trunk carpet; Installed "peel and stick" soundproofing (same as dynomat); Refurbished gas tank (coated inside and out with RENU coating); Replaced gas tank seal; Replaced fuel filler flap; Replaced fuel filler neck sleeve; Replaced fuel filler neck sleeve; Replaced drivers and passengers floor boards; Replaced deck lid T handle; Replaced engine grill rain tray; Installed new OHTSU tires (25/60R15) Installed new battery; Installed 16" replica Fuchs (painted red); Wrapped upper body in heavy duty white vinyl; Installed Martini racing stripe; Installed rear window graphics; Installed new speedometer cable; Replaced headliner (black OEM style); Recovered dash panel in red perforated vinyl; Installed new PORSCHE script floor mats; Installed second set of clear vinyl mats over PORSCHE script mats; Replaced speedometer with rebuilt speedometer (set to 0 miles therefore mileage on rebuild is accurate); Installed PowerConnect 7" CD/DVD/AM/FM/AUX/USB stereo (DVD works and has kill switch) Installed 2 Kenwood 6X9" speakers; Installed self-powered Dual Subwoofer; Installed new antenna; Installed new knobs for lights and wipers; Installed custom "Bavarian Motors" shifter knob; Replaced front windshield and seal; Replaced rear windshield seal; Removed all windows and had window trim polished; Rebuilt all windows with new rubber / windor channel felt; Replaced driver side front turn assembly; Replaced all turn signal lenses; Replaced all turn signal lens seals; Replaced front headlights; Installed new OEM style drivers side view mirror; Installed new door draft plugs; Installed new window crank handles; Replaced the hood emblem seal; Replaced the dash heater control knobs (all red) Recovered front and rear seats with red vinyl and black piping; Painted front seat brackets gloss black; Installed RS door panels; Recovered rear side panels and shelf. Obviously, I have receipts for all the repairs described above and all parts were sourced from reputable sources, e.g., Pelican, SMC, Porsche North Houston, etc., etc.. I have also done my best to document the work performed photographically (see photos below) and digital images of all receipts and photos can be included in the sale. After completing these repairs, I can honestly state that this 912 is ALMOST NEW and is about as good as it could ever be. While it is not perfect, its mechanical performance is impeccable. In fact, the mechanics are so good that if the car is purchased at the "Buy It Now" prince then I will sell the car with a "buy it back" guaranty. Please ask me for the details on this guaranty. PLEASE NOTE: The car does not currently have its original engine. However, I have the original engine and am in the process of reassembling it. If the car is purchased at the "Buy It Now" price then the original engine (in long block form without carbs, engine tin or peripherals) will accompany the car. In addition, if the car is purchased at the "BIN" price then I will also include a set of 15X5.5 front and 15X7 rear Fuch rims. Finally, if the car is purchased at the "BIN" price then I will include a set of 1969 Texas plates (front and rear). In closing, if you are in the market for a very nice, rapidly appreciating 912 then you should give the instant car serious consideration. While it is not a concours level car, it is a nearly perfect driver. If you would like to see it being driven then there is a video of it being driven on my YouTube channel - TheBavarianMotors.

However, some of our cars come with the full manufacturers warranty and some are eligible for extended warranties. Please discuss the potential purchase of an extended warranty with your sales representative. Shipping Unless stated otherwise in the vehicles listing, shipping is the sole responsibility of the buyer. There are many reputable transporters across the country and the Buyer is required to contract directly with one of them. If required, we can locate a shipper for the Buyer but will not assume responsibility for the vehicle once it is consigned to a shipper. Terms and Conditions Terms and Conditions All vehicles I sell have clean and clear titles. I do NOT sell salvage vehicles or vehicles with reconditioned titles. All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and there are no representations or warranties except those contained in the written sales contract or bill of sale. The winning bidder must contact me within 24 hours by phone to start the transaction. The winning bidder must respond within 2 days after the auction with a $500 deposit required via wire transfer, Visa/MC, or certified funds(cashiers check) to start the transaction. It is understood that the vehicle is sold on an "As Is" basis. Buyer are free to purchase with or without an inspection. I strongly encourage pre-purchase inspections. These inspections are relatively cheap and help ensure that the Buyer is completely satisfied with their purchase. All sales are subject to a state inspection fee and a Vehicle Inventory Tax imposed on the dealership by State law. All sales are subject to a $199 dealer service fee and a $99 document fee. Texas residents must pay applicable sales tax and a registration fee. Out-of-state customers may pay tax and register the vehicle in their own applicable state. Upon request, we may be able to complete the buyers home state registration. The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs. I will arrange for shipping, if requested. Also, transportation to and from the airport and our location is buyers responsibility. I make every attempt to deliver vehicles to clients with two keys, key fobs, manuals, booklets, NAV CDs, wheel locks, tool kits, etc..., however, from time-to-time, a vehicle may be missing one or more of these items and I cannot guarantee that they will be included in the vehicle at the time of sale. Please call for the exact accessories included for the vehicle. For Canadian car buyers: If the title is to be released at the time of delivery (which is much mandatory to move the vehicle through customs), a wire transfer is the fastest way to complete the sale. If the payment is not by bank wire transfer, i.e., certified bank check or approved loan check, the title will only be released when all funds have cleared. Please keep in mind that the funds verification process can take up to 15 days. We will assist you with the documentation needed to clear Canadian customs, but knowing exactly which documents are required by your home province are the buyers responsibility. Requirements for Canada can be found at www.riv.ca under "Registration of import vehicles, Canada". Notice to All Bidders Please remember your eBay obligations.
