Looks like fun but I would "un-slope" it.

I don't know. Aluminum parts might make it worth the look.

It's really nice, not to crazy about the wheels.

Wow, uber rare aluminum doors and slope nose. It's pretty nice.

No, the wheels are ROH wheels. IMO the car would benefit with real Ruf wheels then again if they want $159k, gold wheels might be in order

It looks like it has leather 'carpeting' on the floors? Never seen that.

Unslope it and you destroy the provenance. On a car like this, if what you want is a factory fender car, you just keep shopping. That is unless you roll cigarettes with $100 bills and just smoke your money...

Might be 2200 lbs. No AC, no sun roof, alloy sheet metal, rs interior, light weight bumper mods, no back seats etc...my '83 SC is down to 2400 lbs with 10 gallons of gas just by stripping out the AC, sound padding, rs carpet and interior and a few other things (backdated heat, mirrors)..so very possible.
On the ask price, yeah, that's up there.

No, don't think so...I'm familiar with what you can do to a 911 or a 930 to reduce the weight and I don't see all that much done to this one. And remember, a 930 starts out a lot heavier than a 911 like your SC.

I've had 2 930s, one US and one Euro, and they both tipped the scales at around 3000 pounds, or a little less. Lots of heavier stuff on a 930...

I'm with you on that, no matter how well executed it looks 'off' unless on a full on race car with all of the FIA auth body mods
