1973 2.4 T/E with MFI as dleivered new into USA in August 1972
One family owned car from new until early 2002
Never been registered fully in Australia so still shows as a 2 owner car.
Massive file of work done on the car motor must have been rebuilt at some stage but can't find evidence as it runs too well for a 42 year old motor!!
All factory handbooks books available with the car.
Vin is 9113100342
Engine 6130561
Gearbox 7330687
All numbers visible and and hence this is a fully numbers matching car.
Its time for this great driving car to find a new home so I can build that ST motor and get that project finished.
The 2.4T/E has finally been re assembled thanks to Dave and Thomas at Classis Road and Track and all traces of external black trim have now been removed with re anodised or new pieces.
The re anodising went OK but previous sandblasting and corrosion of the alloy has left a few slightly less than perfect areas but boy what an improvement on what it was.
Check out all the work firstly done by Phil and then by me to get this car to where it is today
A few pics of the product as it is today to finish the story
A brief list of some of the things done.
All new suspension bushes
Totally cleaned and all supsension repainted bolts re anodised etc etc etc
New shocks
All chrome and anodised trim redone or replaced
Many window rubbers replaced
Front and rear window trims replaced
New door pockets and correct 73 style door trims
Perfect condition door pulls
Original and perfect headlining
New Porsche classic sunvisors
New Tony Garcia carpet kit
New Tony Garcia sport seats in perforated leather
Reco original Becker Europa stereo with i pod connectivity
All green tint glass as per original
Factory seat belt covers
Dash recovered by Just Dashes and no cracks
Near new Pirelli P 6000 tyres
6x15 Fuchs but not date matching
No rust anywhere to be found
Car isn't perfect though
It used to be silver and still is in most places but currently sprayed in cream. All the engine bay, wheel arches and underneath are still as it left the factory so an easy repaint to return the car to complete silver again.
Has had a minor rear accident in the 80's in California all original metal in this area but not quite a 100% job on the repair. It has 2 new front guards but I have no idea why.
It leaks a bit of oil (from back of MFI pump I think down on to heat exchangers), starts first time every time, doesn't blow plumes of smoke runs strong and is a very easy car to drive being a T, but with the extra grunt of the 2.4 and MFI.
Sure I know its LHD but for what this car offers I doubt there will be a better one available at this price anytime soon.
Car will be sold with a roadworthy in Vic, unregistered for interstate.
$59,950 OBO
