BDLadd Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Hello IB enthusiasts, Bruce Ladd here from Casper, WY, USA. Have owned many generations of 911s and 912s since my first Porsche in 1975, an Aga Blue 1966 912. Still learning how your great site is organized but for now here are my two 911s. First one is a 1976 911S in Light Yellow, black leather with blue/black carpets. Very nicely set up mechanically when I bought it but it needed cosmetic help so I restored it as a Carrera tribute, it has a 3.2 liter engine from a 1989 Carrera. My second 911 is a mostly stock, original paint 1986 Carrera. Dunkelblau over grey-beige. I am the third owner, current mileage is 42,310. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNJon Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Another 'new' owner here [ I have posted on the 3.2 section when my car arrived]. I can't compete with the yellow against a bright blue sky but here is a piccie of the 3.2 + one of it's funky interior which I know some people will not be too keen on but we both like it. Done about 1000 miles over my first month of 911 ownership including a track day on it's new tyres[ the rears were 16 years old when I collected it !!!!! ].

Jon I've always thought the 911 to be one of the few car designs that wears white well. And another big 👍 for the interior - would love that in mine! Welcome.
