Whenever I see 'aircon needs regassing' I equate that to 'aircon is screwed and will cost a fortune to fix'yeah, just like 'needs a tyre balance' == 'suspension and steering completely flogged out' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnSafari Posted 16June, 2016 Report Share Posted 16June, 2016 I could do with a zero f##ks 911, Did it have any major rust issues when you had it apart from what i can see in the photos?No major rust issues, just had a pin head blister below the rear window (LHS). It did have crows feet and required paint back when I sold it early 2012, it looks like it has been left outside all that time and the moisture has got under the paint. It is missing the rear reflector (I supplied a replacement) as my old man put the ride on lawn mower into the back of it!I also fitted a 964 fender mounted oil cooler up front. It looks like I still know this car better than the current owner! Hope this helps. James P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel Posted 16June, 2016 Report Share Posted 16June, 2016 (edited) Apologies for the slip up Michel, I was trying to pay attention but I'm naturally cautious...Someone picked up a good project, not one you were interested in flipping?no need to apologise Hugh, obviously forgot my smiley face, ? Who amongst us here and including the lurkers, hand on your still beating CDI didn't feel a stirring and a rush of blood and went for the phone? I was laughing not at you Hugh, but at the odd silence on this pretty thing, thought it'd have got the wags going. Suspect we were all either speed dialling ( including me) , and felt too furtive/guilty to post our findings here or maybe we were right royally jacked by mr fingers ...

PomBstard Posted 16June, 2016 Report Share Posted 16June, 2016 1991 944 S2 now listed with CTS - $36k - looks nice, as it should at that price, but I have a sense of deja vu - didn't they have a red S2 for sale not long ago?Anyway, will be passing by on Monday and will have a look - if its still there - these don't seem to hang around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLD Posted 17June, 2016 Report Share Posted 17June, 2016 The thing I see with that 356 is that they're getting harder and harder to find, and prices are going higher and higher. The cheapest is a 356b, converted from left hand drive, for $145,000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1q2w3e4r Posted 17June, 2016 Report Share Posted 17June, 2016 Any photos of it? $91k seems like a lot if you are saying it isn't/wasn't running or easily drivable. You'd be better off getting on thats already up and going you can drive an enjoy then going through the time and cost of a resto. EDIT: Never mind, saw the main photo on the auction site, I think you'd have to take odds on it when you dipped it if it came back in a bucket.

James P Posted 17June, 2016 Report Share Posted 17June, 2016 Word on the street, said 74 Carrera Targa is missing compliance plate, books, etc Maybe the owner was trying to create an auction frenzy all along so people wouldn't do their proper checks? Do we know any more about this car if it sold & what $$$ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James P Posted 17June, 2016 Report Share Posted 17June, 2016 Still playing out I believe. Latest 'missing bits' info may change things. It also may be designed to throw people off. But a quick check with the owner will confirm either way.Sounds like you may know the purchaser or getting the word on it... keep us informed I didn't even bother calling even when i spotted the MFI engine & it was at $39k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
