Dirty import , converted , with what level of originality.. What words do you use.. Worth the same as other hotrods/heinz 57 cars , I guess , whatever that number is. If you wanna go fast , you probably wanna go faster, if you wanna good chassis , and old car aint the best option , the 915 is probably better than the original box.. It has the elephant racing gear but is it an elephant in the weight arena You gotta say it is loved. Looks good!! This discussion probably is a can of worms , should a hotrod , be track capable , that defines hot , in my book yes! . Should it be a sleeper and have some street sleeper grunt and blow someone away on the traffic light chase yes. Im not sure im helping .. maybe I will cause conversation .. Its been around for a while .. a lefty 911T sat at 98k for 6 months .. maybe its a 90K car as it isnt easily returned to its original market or europe. Maybe you wouldnt care about a cost recovery if you had a great time with it , it looks like a fun ownership proposition or maybe if you wanna play safe money its a 70k car and may I be damned for all eternity as Im sure someone on here owns it!! Question really is what will make you cross the road and grab a deposit from the ATM and what value is it to you Fraz and Bluegus73 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mph911 Posted 1March, 2018 Report Share Posted 1March, 2018 https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/Porsche-911-1970/SSE-AD-5054395/?_ga=2.45659491.671253720.1519853280-1454289614.1508725472 I remember looking for my first 911 in the early 2000's and this was sitting on Unique Cars Magazine for a while, looking exactly as it does now. It won't be heavy, being an early car and early car can have 130hp and be a hotrod.( you can take any car on the track). This car would be $45k max in the US, then again, SC's are as well. Usually I would say the market decides, however there's a been a lot of fools paying way too much for ordinary cars in this country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult to value though as it will require the right buyer for the identity crisis reasons symsy mentioned. The challenge this car has is that the $100k + market gets very crowded. Would you buy this over an Aussie delivered 993, 964, 996 turbo, 997? Would be interesting to take it for a drive and see how it feels, might be a cheap way to experience old school 911 fun ... and it looks the part which is always nice.

davidtran Posted 1March, 2018 Report Share Posted 1March, 2018 I've got my eyes on a 964. If all goes well this weekend it will have a new home. I'll be listing my 3.2 if anyone is interested. '88 model Venetians blue with 166kms. 3 owners with upto date books. Just serviced too and happy to include the RWC in the price. $100k firm. Havent had it for long. Impulse bought it because it was a very tidy car. I just prefer a 964. 4 hours ago, symsy said: Roll call .. whos looking to buy a 3.2 or SC now ..

TrevMcRev Posted 1March, 2018 Report Share Posted 1March, 2018 Anyone inspired by Magnus Walkers stories today grab this $11K neg. Boxrod? Maybe we can now call it a BXRD?

bear924 Posted 1March, 2018 Report Share Posted 1March, 2018 Was just thinking today that maybe a 986 boxster might be a fun stop gap before my next 911.

When you consider the prices of an Oz delivered 70, this is a good price in my opinion. I prefer that type of car over a mint original, as it's one you can just drive and not worry about getting some stone chips etc that might affect it's value (if you're worried about that sorta thing) What's it worth? Tough question, and one that a buyer could only answer really. If I had the coin, I'd be happy to pay $100k or maybe a bit more, as it's a real longhood and my kind of car, but that's me MichaelF and Bluegus73 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
