Porsche Chat

Not this little black duck.

 

Having perused his last link of what he'd like in his shed,I thought I'd post this little number for Carl.:

I saw this car driving in traffic at Contarf around Christmas time - looked quite good. But, looking at the info in the ad, you have got to wonder just sort of HOS it was before they started the transformation. Back in the 80's I would have looked at all the parts it was made from and wondered if it was re-identified.

 

Is re-identified a polite way of saying stolen & rebirthed?

 

Yep, bit of a thing in that era.

Fully restored? Hopefully and engine freshen up.

 

Has had big $$$ thrown at it judging by the pics but needs tartan

Always such a thrill to look at 911 engine bay.

A bit like opening the back of a washing machine.

Ooh! All the stickers!

 

But of course

 

Are you trying to take Wes's funniest man on that title ?

 

$225K,stupid money given some of the other examples you've put up lately......irrespective of how pretty it is.

 

Go and try to restore one for less

 

......which is why the properly maintained original usable examples you've put up appear more attractive than that garage queen IMO

 

Well, as a point of reference, the guys I bought mine from just sold a 911SC with 320k km on it, scruffy in the paint and probably need at least part engine rebuild in the near future for $185k. They are selling these cars faster than they can get their hands on them

 

More money than sense if that's the case IMO.

 

It’s the air cooled market currently and it is what it is

 

That’s lovely

 

For now.
