That offer goes for you as well, Scott. And anyone else who needs help selling a Porsche. :)

I second Techweenie. He helped me sell my ‘70S. He found a good buyer and was very candid with me about the condition of my car and the marketplace. Recommended.

Thank you for the offer! Assuming that was directed at me. I'm sure you would do a great job. Looks like I might have a buyer in France. If you have the space, skills and time, selling on BAT seems like it might be a good side gig.

BTW, that SC you had was a stunning color, not many of those around. I remember seeing it at Kents place about 25 years ago.

Thanks for posting that link, Erik.
Yeah, this car has been around for a while.
My friend bought it way back in '92 I think it was or maybe '93. I can remember helping him ferry it back to MO, but he never offered to let me drive it on that trip.
It never made it back to CA in 2015.
I doubt it has been corner balanced. =;>{)

Yeah, the SC was pretty nice and Talbot is a rare color I'm finding while following sales on Bat.

Will keep that in mind, thanks Denis.

It’s not hard to understand the marketplace for any car these days. There are hundreds of comps on BaT for 911s of every age and condition, you can even track the changes in the market because many of them have been listed multiple times over periods of time. It’s not rocket science and none of the dealers and flippers have any special knowledge about it.

The hard part is I don't know the car all that well in its current state. I haven't seen pics of it for a lot of years.
I do know the engine is not your run-of-the mill 911 6-cyl. My brother doesn't build them that way.
So working up a comp is not as easy as it seems.

How far or near is the car from you? Perhaps take a drive to see the condition for yourself while talking with an old friend. Take some pics and post the car here for him. Lots of lookie loos that don't post, but are looking for cars.

Scott Douglas 05-22-2025 06:56 AM

The car is in Kansas City MO.
I'm in Orange County, CA.
While I'd love to take a drive to look at the car and visit with an old friend that just isn't going to happen.
