1969 LWB 912 with matching numbers engine and 4-speed transmission. Car was parked in 2002 after a minor fender bender occurred on front left corner causing the wheel well opening to come in contact with the tire. I purchased it in September 2013 and have clear Mississippi title in hand. Fuel tank was about 1/4 full when parked and of course gummed up the lines. Engine was very clean and the oil was full and showed no signs of water or other contamination. Weber IDF 40's have been installed with K&N filters. With external fuel supply the engine starts and runs good enough to drive around the yard but starts misfiring at higher revs. This first startup and running was occurring through the most varnished. gummed up carbs I have ever seen! The brakes were locked up as well so I pulled the front pads to allow easier rolling. The brake system is basically empty of fluid so that'll have to be sorted. Transmission shifts fine from 1 st to 2 nd while tooling around in yard but not able to get enough speed to row through 3 rd and 4 th. Reverse also works great! Electrical system appears original and unmolested save for radio install. Fuse blocks were rusty and corroded but cleaned up nicely. No signs of hot or burned wires at the blocks. The electricals will have to be sorted concerning the lights since only one headlight is working. Original Ossi Blue paint is intact on the hood. roof. deck lid and top areas of left fender and door. Other areas including both bumpers and quarters have 20+ year old professional single stage respray that is now showing its age. I feel certain the 14-inch Fuchs are not original to the car as all five are date coded April 1970. The 205 Michelins are in my opinion too big but are in good shape for general road use. The interior is hit and miss. the carpets were original but wasted so I pulled them out to keep moisture at a minimum. The seats are in very nice daily driver condition with only a slight tear on the drivers seat. Headliner is in great shape but dingy and stained in areas. Dash pad has only one cracked area around speaker grill but other than that is very presentable. The floor pans are fairly solid but with a few areas. particularly in corners. where the rust has eaten through the metal. The pan area on the front drivers side has actually been replaced years ago. The rockers and center tunnel are very solid and should provide sufficient strength for proper welding of new pans. Other areas concerning rust are at the base of the front and rear glass and the package tray panel above the engine. The areas around the glass are just beginning to show signs of worsening but should be easily repaired during a proper restoration. Another area where rust has started to weaken the structural integrity of the vehicle is the lower front area of the boot. This area has actually been structurally repaired long ago fairly well but not to modern restoration standards. The repair was welded decently but overlapped existing metal in areas that held water and moisture. subsequently causing the metal to weaken and rot. The front control arms are secured solidly enough in this area now BUT will need to be addressed during restoration by proper installation of new front suspension panel. Rear spring plate attaching points are rock solid with absolutely no signs of rust or damage. Battery boxes are both extremely solid. Left fender damage is limited to just the fender and could be hammered out by a competent body man thus saving the factory original fender. All of the glass save for the windshield are original Sekurit. Instrument cluster retains all original working gauges save for newer clock.

Bonnet release mechanism is sticky and the struts have weakened keeping the lid from staying open without a prop. Smugglers box is far from rotted out but does have areas that have rusted through. As for the numbers. VIN plate matches stamped number on the body. The engine number is

4093305 . Transmission number is

5090099 . Also included but not seen in the pictures are the original jack and lug wrench. Also. both door pockets are present but have distorted over time due to being made of a cardboard-like material. Glove box door overlay material and "912" metal badge are also present. Original 912 owners manual is included as well as a few past registration forms from two previous owners. At the time of these pics. I was in the process of rebuilding the carbs and tightening the belt so that is why the engine appears somewhat disassembled so rest assured the engine is complete and in running condition as stated above.

Here is a link to a short video of the initial running of the engine. All gauges working and of course a backfire after high revs . just love the way these engines sound!
