I Need Major Helpage!!!!

[my porsche]

ok i got an email back today from the guy Tom, who bought my dad's car, he sold it to "Axis Imports" thats all he could say, i dont know the location (emailed him back about it) but i need to know if anyone has heard of them?


please make this a sticky or something please so that everyone can see it, i need help desperately, as soon as i get the location i will tell you

if this helps, this is the car's vin

[IWantAnAudiRS6]

I take it you're trying to get the car back? I ran it through a few search engines and nothing. They may not have a website. Does Tom have their contact number? Or even a site?

[my porsche]

yes im trying to track it down, read: "oh happy days"


nope the transaction was made in 1999 before most people had websites... :(

[my porsche]

yeah, it kind of does :(

wait my bad, thats a typo it should be "axis"

[TheOne]

try runnin the vin # through carfax, it tells you who is supposed to be the current owner, or at least the state where its at right now.

[my porsche]

really?!?!

just carfax.com?

[my porsche]

you have to pay $20 for that, and it doesnt include address or name, so basically id be paying $20 for a state name

[spi-ti-tout]

Basically better than nothing though.

[IWantAnAudiRS6]

MORON!!! :p

I'll re-calibrate my boosters, hang on...

[my porsche]

hey gimme a beak i suco at tpoing

[IWantAnAudiRS6]

Yep, damn straight you do...

And what state is it in?

[my porsche]

no reply yet, i think tom is in alabama or georgia and it sounds like the deal was done in person so oits probably in one of the two

[Matt]

Well, I found this one...

Axis Import Export Corporation
226 North Fehr Way, Bay Shore, NY 11706

Next time I go see my friends in Long Island I MIGHT be able to check this place out for you.

[my porsche]

i called and left a voicemail, if nothing by the time you go that would be awesome

[shr0olvl]

if this helps, this is the car's vin
911 VIN: 119122104

The VIN must be exactly 17 characters in length.

Thats what carfax told me...

[my porsche]

thats the vin, my dad even had it memorised when i asked him

you calling my dad a liar bitch?!!? :p

[Matra et Alpine]

thats the vin, my dad even had it memorised when i asked him

you calling my dad a liar bitch?!!? :p
unlikely.

More the case that carax dont' know sh!t about cars outside of America and older than 5 years :)

The international standrd for VINs asn't uised on 911s till after 1981

According to http://www.adelgigs.com/911vin%20numbers.shtml it's a 1969 911 T Coupé Karmann

Go tell carfax to learn their job :)

[my porsche]

:( :'( this sucks

[F1_Master]

Ok, so is the car in a dealer, or is that all you've found out?
I mean, are you 100% sure the dealer still has it?

[my porsche]

i doubt it but thats all i have, i figure i can find out who they sold to

all i know is,

sold to Axis Imports, Atlanta Georgia, USA, in 2002

and the previously stated vin # in this thread, and that it is a 1969 911 T with an S-Spec Rebuild

[my porsche]

ok i got the address and name of the current owner so i sent him a letter


but in the mean time if anyone knows where ic an buy a 1969-73 911 that would be great

[Sauc3]

[my porsche]

thanks

the car was sold to the guy's mechanic, then he sold it to a "wealthy man who reaces cars" could be an old duffer who goes on track a few times a year or a serious race i dont know,

but i have the mechanic's number and ill be calling him

[my porsche]

thanks sauc, but my budget is about $10,000 or less for the actual car :( although i do like this one:

http://www.carsearch.com/709745.htm

im not ready to buy though, so maybe (hopefully) it will still be there in 6-7 months

and i havent called the mechanic yet, im going to tomorow, its my goal, because i may not even need to look for other cars, because i could get my dad's old one for in my range, and we know 17+ years of the history oif it (always a good thing)


right now im just praying (not literally, because i think its wrong to pray for material things :D ) that i will have enough money to get something that i want very badly :(

this:

[spi-ti-tout]

this:
Can it go like stink?

[my porsche]

wouoldnt doubt it :D

[my porsche]

ok well now that i have a few says off from school, im going to be calling the mechanic, what should i say? i need a good script or i'll just blank out, can anyone help? im horrible at speaking to strangers over the phone :(

[shr0olvl]

ok well now that i have a few says off from school, im going to be calling the mechanic, what should i say? i need a good script or i'll just blank out, can anyone help? im horrible at speaking to strangers over the phone :(

:D I thought I was the only person who sucked at talking to strangers over the phone and blanked out. :p Anyways, what are you calling the mechanic for again ? Hit me up on AIM, I can probably help you out.

[my porsche]

nope your not alone, and i just imed you

[Rockefella]

M_P, say this: "Wattup fella, word on the street is you're holdin' a Porsche 911, and I need it. So, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way. Pick one."

[my porsche]

we aint in jerzy...

:p

seriously though could someone help? :)

[Rockefella]

seriously though could someone help? :)
I just did?

[my porsche]

ugh nevermind :p

[shr0olvl]

I just did?

He don't live in da hood mang...

[Rockefella]

He don't live in da hood mang...
New Jersey etiquette is universal, just accepted differently in certain locations. :cool:

[my porsche]

Im hoping to finally get around to calling the last person whos number i have in the trail of who has owned my dad's 1969 911 since he sold it, the guy is a mechanic, but he sold it, so im just going to ask for the current owner's contact

so once i get that and i call that guy, what should i ask him about the car? my goal is to buy it in a few months, so what things should i know about it other than general condition questions?

[Jack_Bauer]

so once i get that and i call that guy, what should i ask him about the car? my goal is to buy it in a few months, so what things should i know about it other than general condition questions?

I would have thought the first question to ask would be 'how much would you $ell it for?'! ;)

With any second-hand car (especially classics) it's always a good sign if the owner(s) have kept all/most of the receipts from services, repairs, refurbs etc. It's all very well and good someone saying "it's been well serviced and has had $xxxx spent on it", but it's a LOT better if they can prove it with receipts and stamps from reputable service-centres and classic car specialists etc. It's not the end of the world if they don't, but it'll inspire a whole load of confidence if they do. :)

[my porsche]

so:
-would you be willing to sell?
-how much would you sell for?
-have you had an services or repairs done?
-if so where/how much did you spend?
-what condition is the car in?
-would you mind trailoring it 1,500 miles from atlanta to houston so i dont have to get off of my lazy ass or pay $1,000?

You got it all wrong. This is what you will say, word for word.

"Whaddup playa, you gotta car that I need, and I ain't comin' here to play games, so don't front. I'll give you 15-large for the car, and you're wife. Have a nice day, you sonuvab..ch."

[my porsche]

· What Condition is the car in currently?
· Have you modified it in any way?
· How many miles are on the car?
· Has it been wrecked since you’ve owned it?
· Have you had any services done to the car?
· If so, where they at a specialist? and do you have reciepts?
· Would you be willing to sell in roughly 6 months?



thats what i have currently, my dad is going to help me think of more soon, then im going to call, finally worked up the nerve, i HATE talking to random people over the phone :p
