This car technically belongs to my mom, but I purchased it originally in July 2006. I picked the car up in Fort Wayne, Indiana for $6,500 and drove it 13 hours straight to Richmond, Va. Incredible experience! We had a fantastic first year together, in which I had the pedal assembly rebuilt with a new master cylinder and updated brake cables etc. Had zero issues. In 2007, I decided to "reward" the faithful 912 with a motor rebuild. I picked the wrong guys to do the engine work (took 3x as long as promised, $1,000+ additional, etc). So I had a different mechanic install a rebuilt transmission. All of this put us without the car for almost the entire year. Horrible. When I finally picked it up with the new motor and transmission, we made it only about 2 hours before the motor seized (no oil!). I could never prove which mechanic was ultimately to blame. Out of money and frustrated, we parked it. For the next couple of years or so, we slowly replaced and/or repaired the damaged parts (with mechanics' consultation) and gathered what I believe to be all of the necessary pieces to rebuild the motor. Simultaneously, we took the car to a guy in Martinsville, VA to repair rust etc and paint the 912. It has barely seen the light of day since the body work. Until January, we kept it in a storage unit. It has been in my parking lot under a car cover for the past few months. The interior would be ok with a good cleaning, but there are a few scratches and such as I have only done "necessary" repairs. We will include some updated seatbelts, still in the box. Also cool, is that I had a cd player concealed in the glove box back in 2006 with some MB Quart speakers in the doors. Today, the 912 is physically in solid shape. The motor is somewhat if not completely "all there", with ASSEMBLY REQUIRED. The transmission has only a couple of hours on it. Wipers, motor, transmission, exhaust, are out of the car, but will be included. Heater boxes are rusted out, but I'll include them for whatever that is worth. Actual mileage is unknown. Selling this car breaks my heart after everything we've been through. Not to mention that we will never recover the time and money invested. But we are out of time and money (at least for now), and must sell. I sincerely hope our 912 finds a good home. Best, -Curtis
