"Unmolested"...really?
Unmolested? Well, yeah, except for the body, engine and tranny.
Porsche 911 Turbo Look 3.2 G50 And if this car belongs to a Pelican, I truly mean no offense... I respect hard work. |
Yea, well I don't mean any disrespect either but modifying a '72 Targa longhood... well, to each his own I guess. My next goal is to build a '72 hotrod. I just love the lines on the early cars and I see no reason to modernize them.
|
I am trying to like it but there is something about it that just wont let me.
|
can't think of any part unmolested. this car just reenforces my dislike for cabs and targas. Ya think the did some bracing or just cut off the targa bar?
|
Unmolested, in this case, means he didn't have sex with it.........i think.

I watched the first one, starts right up and sounds pretty good. Looks better than my car, so I'll just shut up and let someone buy the thing. The grammar police have had their day, and a good laugh was had. |

Not exactly a burnout. That's a max performance launch on what sounds like a slippery surface.
Unmolested was a poor choice of words, but maybe English is not his first language. For the most part, it looks like he's trying to be forthcoming in his add. Also, if I were a betting man, I'd say this car is but another example of the many longhoods that were converted to the later look in the 70's and 80's. It was common in those days. The early cars were mostly just thought of as old, dated, and tired in those days. You guys are a tough crowd. Elitist DOES come to mind. |

It took Porsche 20 years to convert a Targa into a convertable -- mostly because they had to figure out how to reinforce the car so that it wouldn't flex -- especially when driven hard. I wonder how many of those reinforcements were done to this car?

Personally, your car do with it what you want.... Just be accurate in your descriptions...
This 911 still has a lot of potential going for it, such as Weld a coupe roof on Correct it back to long nose, keeping wide fenders Put a duck tail on it Toss the twist wheels and put some RSR Fuchs or 17" faux Paint it orange with black Carrera scrips What do you get? '72 with a 3.2 and G50 - long nose wide a$$ RSR'sh hot rod! :cool: The coup d'gras - drop a Rothsport 3.8 slide valve monster in it and call it done! :p To each his own. :) |
I'm with 911freak. I recently very seriously considered buying a '69S that had a full turbo body conversion on it. The ONLY reason I didn't buy that car was because it has been clipped across the gas tank and had the 930 front end grafted on the front 20% of the chassis. Some other Pelican got it and maybe it will pop up at some point.
If I bought this '72, I would return it to targa, longnose front end and bumpers and paint it blue, like Roger Penkse's special order Carrera RS Targa one of a kind. For a street rod I'd be happy with a targa. |

Given it's Hitler's girlfriend's sister's husband who has the Porsche it adds an even funnier (turbo) twist to the whole parody. Quote:

....or.... I've seen some backdated G50 Speedsters that look pretty hot. Maybe head that direction with this. Return it to a longhood, but keep it wide body...could be a pretty sweet cab. If you like that kind of thing.... Definitely not a "goner" here. |
