Grant, one of the owners and workshop guy also seems to be very well regarded. Also my LHD 996 GT3 CS was previously owned by PR Tech's owner, and obviously looked after by PR Tech. My mechanic certainly didn't find any dodgies even though it had been heavily tracked and the car had been kept in very sound condition. Cavaco motors also used to have a very good reputation, but haven't heard anything about them recently. Cavaco’s now down at Kirrawee david runs the show now same quality service Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tips Posted 27February, 2020 Report Share Posted 27February, 2020 Has anyone looked at this? https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1976-Porsche-911-Manual/SSE-AD-6334658 it’s gotten what I think is a ridiculous price ($35,000) for an AU targa with AC and supposedly 930 steel wide body guards...

It also has about 20k km extra kms since those photos. So if anyone is still wondering, the $78k GT3 is a scam. Driving the GT3 is lots of fun though, so if a legit one arrives on the market I encourage you to join me in GT3 ownership.

Damn, I'm sure there's more than one here quietly hoping it wasn't a scam. Hard to find a GT3 at that money. bear924 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then you will probably rebuild it (‘cause it’s out), then add a new clutch, the go looking for pedal box and linkages etc. An acquantiance paid a shop to do a sporto to manual conversion last year and it was almost a $15k exercise all done.

Yes, agree. I car that I helped sell for a friend last year, was a converted sporto.. and he had receipts for approx 15-16k for the conversion. I do have a spare 915 sitting in the garage... hmmm... but even if that targa was a manual, I really dont think it would be worth 50k.

For me screams hot rod, just don’t have disposable hot rod cash atm Tips, For me it screams "naff". The modifications are equivalent to clothes pegging playing cards against the spokes of your dragster bike. If it still had the original narrow guards, cookie cutter wheels and no whaletail, a bit of tartan on the inside would make a seriously cool car. Even the Sporto would make perfect sense then. firstone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike D'Silva Posted 28February, 2020 Report Share Posted 28February, 2020 It's a cool looking car. I'm waiting for someone to ask me to turn their 3.2 into a 3.4 with high compression, efi, itbs, coil on plug, etc.. Hopefully the person that buys this, will want to build the motor too firstone and Peter M 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These cars often sell to people who think they have gotten a bargain until they do more research and work out what it actually costs to get it back to a driver. firstone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
