Equipment
5 speed, Fuchs alloy wheels, modern radial tires. Good older paint and interior. Factory undercoat cracking and peeling just like factory undercoat does. Never fully apart and in an unusual and striking color, this is a sound car presented with skin deep attention. No Reserve.
Market commentary
While there are many cars whose restorations are neither complex nor expensive, early Porsche 911s are not among them. Correct, original parts are expensive and difficult to source and experienced Porsche mechanics get paid well for their expertise. That is another way of saying that, with early 911s, its usually better to buy someone elses completed project. With an excellent repaint in a fantastic Conda green, this 911 seemed to be just the ticket. Below the paint, however, this was just a well maintained 100,000 mile Porsche. The new owner paid richly for a $40,000 ca, perhaps misled by an absurd estimate.
