Asking for help to help out a friend
 

I need the collectives help in helping a friend determine what would be a fair value for his 911.
It's a '67 S. He's had it a number of years now (I'm not sure how many) and it's been off the road for a lot of them.
I have a PDF doc that describes the car at the time he bought it from my brother.

He's trying to figure out how much it's worth as he's getting ready to sell it.
He's not Porsche savy and I've been out of them for too long to tell him what it may be worth. His research has shown him prices all over the map as far as prices for '67S's.
I don't have any current pictures to show you.
Thanks for any help you can lend me (and him).

Why not put it on BaT? More likely to be surprised in a good way than not, I would think.

That's what I would do if it were mine, but he's had some medical issues of late and can't handle dealing with all that that entails.

Where is the car located?

Kc mo.

Here's a pic of the car when my brother had it on the track at Riverside.
It's had body pieces added since then obviously.

I'd ask the same question in this forum

I sold my car using a broker that deals exclusively with BaT. (avant-garde) It cost a few percent off the top, but I didn't have to lift a finger, and I believe I pocketed more money in the end than if I'd have tried to sell the car locally or on Pelican.

Is there a similar service in KC Mo.?

Done.

I suspect value estimates are going to cover a wide range. First question might be about the rust situation- if it had the front suspension pan replaced for rust, there's probably more. Does it run? What does it need? How many miles? Is there a COA or documentation on the build? And of course, photos.

Sorry to be the bummer. The non S engine takes away a large chunk of the value. Case is not correct nor the specs.

Having said that, I sold my Euro 68S (there were no S in the USA in 68) which was a matching numbers rally specd car from the factory turned into a road racer for $75 in 2018. Mine had no interior, fiber lids and doors (read could be and was returned to original spec)

He knows it's not a perfect 'S'.

Having driven a 'stock' engined S, I think the specs on this engine make it a lot more usable on the street.

I don't think he's looking to sell it as a restoration candidate, more a hot rod with a good starting point.

prepare to be bombarded by PMs wanting to buy it(NOW!)

Ask me how I know

Advertise it for 70k and sell it for 60-65k .

Yeah, there is that downside but the folks in that forum helped me write my ad and price it.

Member techweenie, who is in So Cal has a side business as I recall helping folks find and/or sell 911's. I might reach out to him specifically. He might see your post in the Market Place Forum, but he does not frequent there as often as he once did.

I have been talking to Avant Garde (911r on BAT) about them handling my 356. It is 10% plus a $1,500 listing fee. They do a nice job and I can see a car getting the commission back. Trouble is, they want the reserve to be fairly low or no reserve. You'd pay to ship it to them as well.

Side comment here. I don't have permission from the Boss Lady nor a free garage stall but DAMN. What a killer ride. I personally would LOVE a car like this. And, if I love it, others will too.

Here's the listing when Kent posted it on the EarlyS. Kent should be able to come up with a pretty good number, and/or you should be able to as well.... Has it been corner balanced? (ha ha). 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.

I'll sell your car for less than that and do a better job as well. I'm very good at selling on BaT. :cool:
