Lost 901 or Raving lunatic? A little comic relief

[Tim K]

The link below is to a Canadian buy and sell website. The guy is claiming to have a lost 901. It's mostly just crazy crap. I don't think he's actually selling anything

Don't click if you may want your 5min back.

That's a whole lot of crazy :-) Thanks for the morning smile.

Somebody forgot to take his blue/white/purple/orange/green/yellow pills.

I have a couple of 1971 911Ts, perhaps they are all the other early prototypes. I guess I will have to leave work and check...

[Jagshund]

My head is spinning. Really.

Someone has confused this person- who has obviously decided he doesn't need to follow the dosing instructions provided by his doctor(s)- by putting a slant nose kit on a 1966 911. I was staying with the story right up until I reached the colorful drawings and the photo of the Saran Wrap.

IS OVER
1 OF 1

His rantings somehow remind me of a Dr. Bronner's label . . .

[Wavey]

LOVE the drawings! Too much.

[ErVikingo]

almost as funny at "Flatout"

I once took a class from a Dr. Fumb Duck.

[rouxroux]

PLEASE, someone send him a Spirograph or an etch-a-sketch!!!!!!!!!!

[Matt Monson]

This one has been going around for a few years now. It resurfaces every now and again...

[Jim Richards]

Thanks for the laugh.

I also, ( like the fellow writing the listing ) am a ticketed bodyman and painter. I would like to point out that this is an example, not of prescription drug use/abuse, but rather the inevitable result of many years of breathing chemicals that have no place in nature. I am somewat short of the 29 years this gentleman has experienced the affects of these chemicals. but, within the next ten years I expect I will discover similar fascinating things. such as:

my '73 is actually a lost RS that someone flawlessly removed the original flares and welded in stock flares. also welding in vin numbers to fool one into thinking that it is a lowly '73 911T.

my '72 'roadster' is actually a one-off factory special convertible. by that point I expect to have completely forgotten that I wielded the sawzall that resulted in the 'roadster'.

my '67 is a factory special built in '63 with the then experimental aluminum case 3.0 engine and 915 trans. long before these items were available on production models.

if anyone wants to make me an offer on any of the above cars before I suck enough fumes to realize how special they are, pm me.

now on eBay:
Porsche : 911: eBay Motors (item 170534797255 end time Sep-07-10 18:22:58 PDT)
sure a lot of fuss and bother about a horribly hacked 1971 Karmann bodied coupe
he provides his own evidence/proof that it is a 71

This guy lives in my town.

It's a small town.

He's a whack-job. And that car is a rusty POS. $950,000??

[djpateman]

Have you ever gone to see it? Offer $950 and you might overpay.

[Jonny042]

Maybe he'd take my time machine as partial trade?

[haycait911]

I just read an article in an old Excellence ( nov '94 ) about prototype number 13327. sounds like he used a lot of the text and descriptions to describe/justify his 'prototype'.

[Zeke]

Good Sunday morning entertainment. If I had his imagination, I'd exploit it.

[Jerome74911S]

Well obviously he's found the real original 901!!! I'm going to offer him $1,000,000 and hope nobody has beaten me to it. I'll pay with money that I'll print myself. . . It will be as authentic as his car.
