Miscellaneous Car News

Congratulations!

 

Designed for a much more diminutive person than me lover!

 

I spoke with two mechanics yesterday active in the early Porsche repair and restoration scene in Melbourne. They've both been inundated with cars pre-1980 over the last 12 months where buyers have purchased vehicles sight unseen with no PPI.

Their comments were that people will buy anything and don't even bother to have the car inspected, apparently because they're scared that someone will buy it from under them whilst the inspection is being arranged. And it doesn't really matter what is is either. A LHD to RHD converted ex USA car that just a few years ago would have been an unsellable proposition is now a sought after 911 for someone looking to get into the market.

One mechanic showed me images of a blue 911 T 2.2 that came out of Sydney a few weeks back. It was a converted car, and when you pulled up the rear carpets, you could see holes in the floor. The owner bought it sight unseen with no PPI, but they didn't care. The instructions were to fix the car, bodywork and all. So added to the $130,000 purchase prices of the car (With a freshly rebuilt engine and transmission), it will swallow another $200,000 in the body and trim.

Happy days.

 

So what you're implying is that you've just acquired a larger workshop .........

 

So like your lhd targa 911T 1971 now converted to mid 80s 930...happy days .............................................

 

Yes, because I'm selling!

 

Yeah, sold to an unsuspecting Albanian for $375,000

 

So your bought the old Ford Factory in Corio BTC?

 

.

 

Meh... something not right - either a standard 500 engine or a Nikki replacement if it is 650cc as claimed. You would definitely look 'interesting' pootling around town in that! ROFL

 

Obviously THAT'LL never happen!

 

Perhaps Carl should bid for this!?
