Rather loud without a helmet on I can assure you that 😅 I baffled them with stainless scourer pads which made them bareable, yet it did affect the torque of the engine a bit, so I took them off. The Chesterfield car is just bloody beautiful in my eyes. You'd have to think $300ish wouldn't ya? With the truck, they are asking $700+ Raven, sjm, LeeM and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeatesy Posted 20July, 2022 Report Share Posted 20July, 2022 This Carrera 3.0 looks like it has potential at a reasonable price. @reedminor you know this model well, what do you think? https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1200886877379358/ Joz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top $$ though. No PCW wouldn't be allowed to sell it as it is a conflict of interest if Sean is the owner and also GM of the dealer. My local BMW dealer said staff are not allowed to consign their cars through the dealer for that reason and have to use carsales like the rest of Joe Public.

And plenty of potential. Its been converted for left to right hand drive, but if well done that wouldn’t effect your enjoyment of the car. Photographs definitely don’t inspire confidence, which is possibly why it’s been on the market a while. I don’t need a second Carrera3.0 in oak green but if I was looking for one I’d definitely be reaching out to the seller.

Justin At least from the pics the conversion looks to be done well using RHD internals as you can see it has the correct smugglers box. 1 minute ago, Diamond911 said: Someone being a tad ambitious me thinks: https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1981-porsche-911-sc-manual/OAG-AD-20916027 Agreed. It looks like a nice neat SC, but $320k. It has 200k kms on the clock so it is not collector grade.

Yeatesy Posted 22July, 2022 Report Share Posted 22July, 2022 I called in to Dutton’s to have a look at this today, it’s such a cool car. Unfortunately the dyna wasn’t there 😊 tomo, Joz, PDean and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalai Posted 22July, 2022 Report Share Posted 22July, 2022 As the car will most likely never be driven again, although Dutton's pricing I should see if they will sell the truck separately as the buyer won't need it!

LeeM Posted 22July, 2022 Report Share Posted 22July, 2022 Well it would suck big time if it's never driven again. I can't see the point as to why anyone would buy a car like that, and not even do some speedy demo laps or whatever. I hear The Bend will be hosting some sort of Rennsport thing some time in the future, so this had better be there! Yeah it's worth a lot of cash and has loads of Australian racing history blah blah, but to just end up in someone's collection would be bloody sacrilege. tomo, Yeatesy and Raven 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amen to that Lee! Unfortunately once cars were seen as investments, too many historically important race cars are now in collections especially overseas... Hopefully I am proven wrong and get to see and hear it at Phillip Island or Mallala historics in the future. Though might go into Dutton's and see it in person this weekend just in case. tomo, LeeM, 3legs and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a biggy! That also had a stack at Goodwood a few years ago, then again somewhere else with major damage to the rear which basically squashed the rear end up to the driver (it was a helluva mess), then it was repaired for the Le Mans classic a few months later, and promptly smashed to bits again. I vaguely remember the big crash bill was $250k or something bonkers like that. The owner was pretty candid with his take on owning these old cars that are owned to race, not sit in a collection. Nick Mason (ex Pink Floyd drummer and mega car nut) smashed his McLaren GT car to bits in a demo at Goodwood coupla months ago, and he was like "Oh well, we'll fix it to drive again" Jeez, if I won multi millions, I'd be buying the Chesterfield car for sure sjm, Dalai, tomo and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
