    Sad to see it in this condition: http://www.copart.com/c2/homeSearch.html?_eventId=getLot&execution=e3s8&lotId=28435521

    I don't recall seeing the removal hard top before; I assume that is pretty rare/hard to find?

    I've seen a couple. Porsche started offering them in '58, so not many A cabs would have had them.

    $95K for this seems a little high.

    Thanks. Is that high for a running, somewhat restored one?

    ACV by their definition is after the repairs are made...

    ...however, I'm not sure how this is applied to vintage vehicles that need restoration.

    I owe everyone a thread - hoping to get all the photos for that. Body, paint and upholstery/top are done. Engine is done - gearbox underway. Wiring harness was being installed last I saw...

    Looking at completion in March.
