I told an old friend of mine (okay, an ex-girlfriend..) that I'd help her husband sell his old Porsche 911. I made the mistake of going over to look at it today, and can only conclude that the thing is just a big mess.
He says he wants about 1K for it, and realizes it's a "project". Long story short, he bought it on eBay about 4yr ago in not much better condition than this, and hasn't touched it since.
Early 911 (a 1970? The VIN is #9110100422) that's had the later flared fenders, and even a "whale tail" attached to it somewhere during its history. Very dirty, and many things disassembled-including much of the electrics. Shock towers seem OK, but the floors/rockers are soon to be trash. The nose is rusty as well, and even the doors have the usual early 911 corrosion blisters. It seems to have the original 2.2 fitted, and also seems to have the original Weber setup. The interior is dirty, but IIRC, those seats are some of the early 911 pieces people look for (although I don't know how you'd get them clean). There's also the original wood dash. Here's the pics I took today;
EDIT: I don't know WTF is wrong with Photobucket these days..try this one.
Anybody know what it's really worth? I know there's a market for the early 911, but I thought the folks searching for one almost automatically ignored one that some poseur (not my friend's husband, but some previous owner) had attempted to "update" to a 1980s look.
Any suggestions?
