1976 3.0 turbo engine for sale maybe??
I have a 1969 911 updated to a mid 80's 911 SC with a 3.0 turbo engine. Recently got in an accident after owning for 27 years. The little ***** runs like a champ. Never lost a race in it. About 46,000 kilometers on it(about 25,000 miles) and turbo was rebuilt around 15,000 miles back. In the accident the waste bate and muffle were damaged beyond repair. The wail tail and rear bumper flew off. The drivers rear qtr panel took the beating. The drivers front fender has minor damage. The car looks very clean. My question is Im not sure if I should rebuil the car or sell iot and purchase a later model. Anyone know what an engine like that could fetch. Im sure when my buddy built the motor way back when he modified it because its a little rocket. E-mail me @ gib51sones1255@yahoo.com or call me @ 714 588 3383 Rod. P.S.- The rest of the car is good all doors, full front end bumpers another wailtail, tires and rims, glass, euro guages, 1969 chassis, sunroof electric, all rubber passenger rear qtr(SC flared fenders and front end),electric defogging mirrors,dashboard for early 1969 in gd shape(tan),front axle, 5 speend trans, bumper extensions etc. This car was immaculant on the ext before wreck.

How about some photos? Most times a turbo engine sells easily but would hate to see the car totaled if its fixable, especially a early model.

The car is far from a total. Just the rear qtr is bad underside fine and rest of car is good except minor front drivers fender damage. The exhaust and waste gate are finished though. The car is definitely fixable Im just wondering at the cost or should I get as much money for the parts as I can and move on to a newer model. Maybe even keeping my engine and finding a later model turbo in need of a good engine.
