About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Abandoned in a carport in the 70's with its original engine disassembled, which is how it was found. The paint is almost completely worn off the hood and fenders, the tires are mis-matched and almost flat, the engine is in boxes, the interior is old, dirty and overwhelmingly musty-smelling. It has its original gearbox. A 'barn find' derelict in desperate need of a full, and very costly restoration.

Market commentary

A Carrera GT Coupe with its original engine and gearbox could be worth $900,000 freshly and competently restored. That's just $400,000 more than this rat brought and the specialist technicians, let alone finding or making the missing parts after sitting around for 40+ years, will eat into that difference quickly. At this price it isn't unrealistic, just optimistic, the stuff of Porsche dreams.
