Found in a shed in the outer Perth suburbs after no sighting for a decade - a 77 C3, Hamiltons delivered, matching numbers, factory manual, black on beige, 4 owner, 167kms. 1 photo attached (I hope), more to follow. She is getting a clean up this week.

Peter, given you're currently stuck in Singapore, you need to organise someone to take some pics for you to share

Fuchs getting a polish, as soon as they back on the car I will get some more complete photos organised, hopefully this week. Car is at Ktec if any Perth members happen to drop by. I am not back to Perth until mid-Dec, unfortunately.

Paint looks pretty good in that photo.

I guess in the current market all sheds are getting a good clean out.

This is about the only other half decent photo I currently have. It is literally straight out of the shed into Ktec.

Looks pretty smart. Good pick up.

Hi Sean, yep unfortunately the day job has got in the way of the pcwa event at month end. Ktec boys will still take the 84 to the show, so if you attend please check it out. I am a good chance to be down your way over Xmas and new year, hope you are around.

Hi Adam, there was an urban myth around Perth Porsche inner circle that a very original C3 was out there somewhere, although off the grid for a decade. I searched for a year and amazingly found her, of all places out near where I grew up. My luck was really in with timing perfect as the owner since 1986 was ready to let her go to a new home. The owners (a gentleman) lovely wife informed me when I picked up the car that the first owner was the "shirt guy" from Melbourne. My curiosity peaked, I checked the log book as soon as I got home and first owner was a Mr Joseph Saba of Flinders Lane Melbourne. All in all, a bit of persistence and a truckload of luck. She looks great to my untrained eye, and Brendan at Ktec said she is mint. My 901er friend from Melbourne has been on this journey with me, and did great to keep it all quiet. Thanks mate.
