Here is the documented history as I know it from the documents that came with the car and are in the photos. Serial # 9111102397 was purchased by mrs. Carole ernst ( a nurse from baltimore ) on 8/17/71 from forty west porsche audi in catonsville maryland. Thats right, this car has lived its whole life in maryland within 50 miles of the dealer it was purchased from! This has to be the only porsche in existence that can make that claim! The original window sticker ( see photo ) shows a purchase price of $ 6,798.30 and options of a 5 speed trans, bumperettes, 911s instruments, and antenna and speaker. She must have paid sticker price because the temporary tag registration shows a purchase price of $7176.24 ( 4% sales tax in md. In 1971 ). Mrs. Ernst's car had 19 miles on it when delivered and the last stamp in the maintenance record is at 19,510 miles on 5/24/73. She continued to drive the car but switched to ralphs auto service ( a porsche specialist in baltimore) for oil changes and repairs. I have a receipt for 4 new michelin tires in 1982 but the mileage was not recorded, those tires are still mounted on the original chrome steel wheels with hubcaps that will also go with this car, they all have correct date codes. For unknown reasons, carole ernst stopped driving her car on 5/12/87 after 96,209 miles, I have the receipt she received after cancelling her registration and turning in her tags to the state of maryland. After sitting in her garage for 10 years I purchased the car. It was in great shape but the paint was ruined from something that spilled on the top, and hood. A repaint in original code 1818 Albert blue was done in 1998 and I also replaced the tan carpet and front seat upholstery because of mold and dry rot. The dash is original and has one crack in the middle where all 911's do. This color combination is not seen often and is beautiful and rare. This car has never been in an accident all panels and glass are original including the floor and front trunk battery area, the plated trim is excellent no pits or corrosion.The shell stickers on the air cleaner and the gold labels on the rear lid latch panel are original!! Not reproduction ( look at the photos ). The engine insulation is original and intact, the engine bay is painted black over the original albert blue as some shows through as the porsche workers applied it. I would describe the condition as stunning. I have gone over all mechanical aspects of this car. The 2.2 litre engine runs strong and smooth. It has good compression, rebuilt zenith carbs, and has had a complete tune. All brakes are new including the master cylinder. The chassis is as it left the porsche factory, not overdone with cadmium plating and paint. The wheels on the car now are repro 15 x 6 with michelin tires, the original chrome steel wheels and hubcaps come with the car.

The car started out as a secondary vehicle for a retired gentleman who spent his summers in Florida. This car was stored for half it's life in a Florida garage. Now it lives in Southern California where it's covered and garaged. It currently runs about once a week. There is not an ounce of rust or corrosion anywhere on the body, engine or frame. Has never seen a snow flake. Exterior: -This specific vehicle was fully disassembled and every panel painted separately off the vehicle. It is finished in BMW's 'Brilliant White'. This was a 9 stage paint job that shows as if it was a new car. Not a single ding or even as small as a rock chip. The car is flawless. -Being that 1992 3000GT's did not have a glass roof option, a secondary 1994 3000GT was purchased for the roof swap. The entire roof from the 1994 was graphed onto the 1992 vehicle for a flawless fit. To complete the 2nd generation body swap, the headlight buckets and radiator support was swapped along with the bumpers, side skirts and hood. -Every single bolt, nut and screw that was removed from the car was replaced with brand new stainless steel hardware. -Headlights are 4500K HID. Interior: -The seats were finished in full leather, front and back of seats. The front seating surface is wrapped in a natural brown hide and the backs of the seats are a deep black leather. Then tied together with a white contrasting double stitch. -Above is a custom suede headliner in a matching brown color with black suede up the two pillars. -Interior pieces finished in a rich piano black. -Has a matching orange lit rear view mirror with compass and homelink. -Navigation and Bluetooth is used by the Clarion nx604 head unit with working steering wheel controls and Sony rear view camera. -Shifter unit is the 3SX ball bearing short throw. Engine and Exhaust: -Under the hood are NO SPEED MODIFICATIONS. This car is bone stock and has been used as a cruiser, and in no way raced at any point in it's life. -The lifters were replaced to 1999 5mm VR4 lifters so that the famous 1st generation lifter tick is not present. -For exhaust there is a custom built Borla system with 1 high flow cat and a stainless steel downpipe. Passes the strict CA emissions. The welds are impeccable. -Oil used is fully synthetic Shell Oil. -Every scheduled maintenance item has been done as it should. All new rubber, belts and timing belt were replaced at a local Mitsubishi dealer. -In case there's anybody out there that is not familiar with these cars. They have a standard Twin Turbo 300HP engine, All Wheel Drive and 4 Wheel Steering. Wheels, Tires and Brakes -Wheels on all 4 corners are are 19X8.5 Avant Garde M590's in satin silver with a clear coated machined face wrapped in 245/35 Kumho Ecsta SPT. -Rotors are crossed drilled and slotted and pads are ceramic. Suspension: -The struts are brand new OEM Mitsubishi ECS (Electronically Controlled Struts). They work exactly as they should when new. You can switch from a smooth touring mode to sport mode and stiffen the vehicle up. -Springs are TEIN H Springs.
