Would be hard for a bank/insurance agency to value something like this I guess. Likely they would value it a lot lower than asking. Modified cars must get this all the time I guess. $250k+ cash buyers please hold onto your wallets for a while...something interesting coming soon I guess were are talking the nice hotrod. Its hardly surprising its not sold, price is/was off the chart. My guess is no one bid. Anyone who thinks that planting cash into a personalised hotrod is going to get the full return on investment is nuts (happy to hear different). Its an indulgence, same as having a race car, bespoke suite made or a piece of jewellery. The sum of parts/labour does not equal the worth, & its always been this way. Invest same cash doing a sympathetic resto on a real long hood then chances are much better for a return, mostly from experience, original sells. I look at these cars all the time & I am not a original purist but have a soft spot for this work, just don't think people will pay for someone else's taste. Another car in the same ilk as above has been on CS for a while at $190ish & not moved. Other nice 911 hotrods but in period at $180ish are sticking it seems. My observations, feel free to add yours. edgy, Harold996tt and micknine01 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeM Posted 26July, 2019 Report Share Posted 26July, 2019 You're right @Arnage Depending how good a donor car is in the first place, 'hot rodding' (I hate that term) a 911 is more attractive to a lot of people. Whether its $250k better I'm not so sure, yet the car in question is bloody good from the pics I've seen. I know someone who has a very clean Carrera that is being backdated soonish (calm down purists, it will be reversible), and I can tell you here n now it will be a cracker of a car when its finished. I'll even stick my neck out to say it will be 'worth' a bit more than it is now. From most people I talk to, I believe most fans of air cooled 911's would prefer to own a longhood than a G series etc, and the cheapest way to achieve that with current pre '73 values is to backdate. I personally can't see value in a backdate being $180k and up, unless it is something very special with a vario ram 3.8 monster engine and megabucks suspension package etc etc As an example/hypothetical question. If prices/values were the same ( We wish) and you had $100k to buy a G series or a longhood in exactly the same condition, where would your money go? I'd bet most would pick the longhood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 911 /912 body shape for me needs a 6 pushing it along. Would be more than happy to have a 356 with its 4 cylinder for cruising...
