Coastr Posted 18July, 2017 Report Share Posted 18July, 2017 (edited) Not sure if this is a scam or not, but a nice looking car none the less. $165,000.http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Porsche-993-Real-Targa/172782707893?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649Right hand drive car in Germany, but free shipping to Australia (+taxes etc)."This Car was ment for myself to use in Mauritius, Cause of Delay in Finishing this Projekt, i am Not allowed to Import this car to Mauritius.""Price includes layover in my guesthouse in Mauritus, accompanied free flight from Mauritius to Germany, extended Testdrive, and free Shipping to Australia."oh it's a scam alright considering the frankenporsches that pop up all the time, I actually don't hate this. As already stated, what the 993 Targa should have been.Going by the windscreen Demister and lack of torsion bar covers, plus doorhandles etc etc I'm going to guesss a real 993 convertible with an earlier Targa hoop and window, or a 964 Targa forward dated to 993 bodywork. It looks relatively well done. Edited 18July, 2017 by Coastr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBRUT Posted 18July, 2017 Report Share Posted 18July, 2017 Thanks Peter, probably a stupid question but how can you tell it's a left to right conversion, the ad doesn't give much detailThe VIN reveals all (well quite a lot anyway).

TrevMcRev Posted 18July, 2017 Report Share Posted 18July, 2017 This isn't in Australia, but thought it worth sharing here any. A burnt out genuine black 73 911 RS currently available for a fraction of the usual $1 million price tag. Excellent buying if you have the additional budget to fix her up properly. http://www.crankyape.com/default.asp?pg=DisItems&Cat=11&locID=20 @turboT - it's almost black on black on black, and would be the centre piece of the collection you are currently amassing.You could resto that in the street out the front of the old mans Jono!

But in all seriousness, the car would have been great buying. The matching engine was melted, but the car went for around $150K USD!! More than my pockets could afford, but good bloody buying for someone. Just don't tell the missus! ?I have found a solution for this - restoring body work and paint either interstate or internationally. Cheaper than the Sydney-based thieves and just as good. I can then rebuild the engine at home... "it's just a really big Ducati engine, baby". TrevMcRev and edgy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"it's just a really big Ducati engine, baby". $150k? Even without the original block, thats bloody good buying for an RS As I've mentioned numerous times, these shops that think theyre a bit special who are charging extortionate prices for paint and bodywork is ridiculous. $50k for a paint job and people just pay it? Stupid. Shop around FFS, it's not that hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shop around FFS, it's not that hardThe full matching numbers engine came with the car, but one end of the block was slightly melted (but the stamped block numbers were still clearly visible and untouched on the other end).

LeeM Posted 19July, 2017 Report Share Posted 19July, 2017 Well if someone wanted to sort the engine out badly enough (why wouldn't ya?), I'm sure some engine/metallurgist guru could repair the block like what's happening to Jeff's donk. Or chuck in a donor engine and have a great coffee table made out of the original block ?? JonoF and MichaelF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
