It's mine. There are plenty on the market. I know don't have to tell you to do your homework before you buy. Some of the biggest problems are well hidden. Take your time. If you have any questions, shoot me an email, I'll help you in any way.

I am very aware. I have some experience with older cars as I drove a 1974 Triumph TR-6 in high school. British cars from that era are a huge pain in the arse. (I'm not comparing Corvettes to Triumphs, just I drove and worked on a car from that era on a daily basis and know a bit about older engines.... carburetors, etc.)

Thanks, I'll let you know if I have any questions.

Late 1990s 911. Had the turbo rear end and they were the last of the air cooled. Warning! These go at a premium price.

It's a 69. P/B, P/S, AC, Tilt/Tele, Baer Brakes, HD suspension and whole lot of extras. The original motor 350/350 and Muncie 4 spd is on a stand, preserved in my shop. It has a ZZ4 installed with all the goodies. I'm the second owner with all the maint documents since new.

No budget - 1950's Mercedes 300SL roadster:





Budget - 1970's landcruiser or Porsche 964 turbo

One of those is about 20 grand. The other is 120.

I guess I could have suggested the carrera for the budget selection much closer in line with the landcruiser, but that's no fun and the turbo is still considerably cheaper than the 300sl.
