Why do people do this? Sad Photos

This poor early 911T is parked a few stalls down from where I store my trailer. Reasonably straight with the rare after market door ding protector strip. Sitting out in the Seattle rain, growing moss and full of junk. AND they're paying around $80 per month for the privilage

Time to inquire about it Mark ! I see recaro`s and racing harnesses inside. Maybe its got some good running gear underneath the skin.

And I see 7" Fuchs up front. Door mirrors scare me.

Black horn grilles on a '70 or '71? Hmmmm...could be paint tho, a lot of people painted the chrome black in an attempt to look "cool". Yeah, there ought to be a way to leave the owner a note, ask if he'd be interested in selling. Oh, the seats look like cheapy scheels (sp?) to me, not recaro.

Looks like a 73` to me . It has the reflectors on the rear bumper. That would explain the black horn grills as well.

Wouldn't it be a 72 with those bumpers AND the black horn grills?

You know I'd be all over it if it was an S or maybe even an E. I hate to see this, but is it worth the $ and energy to do a T? It's too new to qualify for our vintage racing group

Not a '72 or '73...the decal in the back window? 2.2.

I can't tell the sticker number, even on my original photo.

It has Maryland plates, but I'm sure I can get the owner through the storage lot.
