I see no pictures of the engine. Is it mid- or rear-engined? It looks like it has a bastardized 928 rear end. The sides look like collision damage.

Looking at some of the photos I think there's a 911 under there somewhere. To be honest I think a pre-K class could do better with play-doh.

end the auction early please!

M.D. Holloway 04-30-2007 08:19 PM

Ya, great pics of the engine...

Those 7 suckers...I mean Bidders are R Gruppe members.

One lasting point...Its SILLY but, This guy put a HELL of alot of work in this thing....I'm not sure it wasnt for Ripleys beleive It or Not. It must be the owner of a junk yard with illegal body workers from TJ needing some sustainment through the winter. Any cognizant/reasonable 1st world person would have not done this.

I know.... actually list the car on Ebay as GAY....The little Gay Porsche .....Some San Franciscan will buy it for big bucks....

Didn't it say 914-6 at the beginning of the narrative? What's impressive, I guess, is that they can make it look so not like a 914.

914, look at the rear trunk

RickM 05-01-2007 07:53 AM

Why 400 pictures of the car...most from the same angle? Does pic quantity equate to quality?

I like the door tops

Maybe, I couldn't read while crying.

That thing has been for sale over and over again for years, I think Al gore must have invented that car at the same time he invented the internets.

Rats! someone beat me to the huge manatee pic!

I too try not to be judgmental of other peoples style and taste but on my gaud!

On a positive note IF there is a decent 3.2 914 conversion under all that and you could pick it up cheap and reinstall a 914 body on it.

tempted to ebay-ask if it was done by Chip Foose :D
