New stable mate for the Unimog!

Picked up this beauty today for very, very little money! It is a 1973 911T, most of the paint is original, runs strong and has zero rust! The dash is not even cracked! Now what is it really worth? I think I might just flip it and let someone else enjoy it, since last season I drove my Targa all of about five times.

I am more interested in thrashing the half pipe. Can I bring my board?

Nice Unimog and long hood.

I would say about $259 or so. Give you cash right now!

Am in Teterboro right now, Niagara Falls tomorrow. Can be right over!

Nice looking car! Great find!

Still have the 2.4 engine in it? Carbs?

Yes it still has the stock motor with mechanical fuel injection. It is really unmolested stock, other than the rims. Interior is really in nice shape, as well as the trunk. I plan on giving it a good cleaning tomorrow, so you'll have to wait to see it, and all you need to do is add a few zeros to your offer and I would be more than glad to sell it to you!!!! Hell I'll even let you take the Unimog for a spin!

HEY! Don't you know this is the OFF TOPIC FORUM! This post is entirely too ON TOPIC!!

Looks like a great survivor. Any engine shots? and is the S bumper steel/original? I didn't think they came on the T models even with S trim.

Don't let these jokers rip you off. That car's worth at least $275.00.

The S bumper is fiberglass, and I took it off today and put on the factory original that came with the car! Looks a lot better stock. Also gave it a good bath, need to jack it up and pull the wheels to clean the wheel wells. Still has all the nice white paint in there, as no one wrecked it by spraying it with black undercoat. Here are a few photos of the motor.

Got a chance to do some cleaning today! This thing is real solid, the wheel wells and bottom came out nice and white! All original, with some cosmolean (sic) still on the bottom as well. Its the brown stuff in the photos. Looks so much better with the stock bumper on. Just need to change over the chain tensioner's to the oil feed type, and put on some turbo lower valve covers, and it will be good to go!

i suspect the right wheels for that car will pay dividends if you resell.
