Addition: The guys from Aporsch-A-Part said they installed a 911 front end in this car before previous owner purchased........would explain the handling!

I think they all had that... Only the stud pattern was changed (914/6)

I can assure you this is an excellent car,I know this because my parents used to own it. The body was immaculate with not a spot of rust before we had it re-sprayed in the original Manila yellow,can't speak for the mechanical condition now but again,it was imaculate at the time.If I wasn't restoring the 56 Ghia right now, I would have bought it. I had a hell of a lot of fun in this car. It's an absolute blast to drive,even better than our 911 or 944! Mid-engined car just kicks-ass!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not exactly sure but imagine they may have had some rust, but they may also have been replaced as part of the full restoration process (was done prior to my purchase of car). Needless to say now, the chassis is spotless 🙂
