You can definitely re use the steering wheel and the 911S trim. The rest looks like 1 step down from scrap.

Just because you can does not mean you should.

As Seinfeld would say; "Good luck with all that."

I think you'd finish quicker whittling one from a block of billet. :D

Or he could just spend the same # of hours it would take working at a 7-eleven + the $$ that would be used and buy the best one in the world. Start driving tomorrow. To the 7-eleven. :)

Being from the rust belt, (one of the many reasons that car nuts move to the mecca of SoCal), I'd rather own a dry '77 924 w/ automatic trans than that soggy turd. And it's a targa, for chrisakes!! Your family is going to commit you.

Doesn't Billy Mays sell something that'll make that look like new?

I think the only thing left after media blasting will be the 911S logo...

That guy reminds me of one of the rednecks from the Pulp Fiction "Gimp" scene.

Therefore i find his commercials very unsettling. LOL.

I, for one, applaud the effort, but it does make tilting at windmills look sane:)

I'm on your squad, though: "Was it over when the German's bombed Pearl Harbor!"

LOL! the wheels alone on this car are worth more than the nicest 77 auto 924 in the world!:D

We all make our choices in life.

Thanks Paul, sanity has never been a strong point. Everyone here knows that! I think Mr. Hancock really hit the nail on the head on the Technical forum thread.

Put it on a piece of plywood and haul it to the front yard. Line it, Stick a pump in the cab and make it a fountain.
Sure beats the naked mermaid I've got my eyes on.
Some people have all the luck.
