It is not something I would consider. There is little original left to the car...that eliminates the value for me...go here and ask also.

There is nothing left that would make it a 912 other than a Vin number. If you purchase this car. Then you will need to hang out with the 911 crowd. They are taking 912's and turning them into 911's.

This will be a very tail heavy car with the 2.7 in a short wheel base car. If you are not use to driving tail heavy cars. It can be a very dangerous car to drive.

Run Away! That car stopped being a 912 a long time ago, the interior and exterior modifications are in poor taste. You can buy a much better 912 or 911 for the price he is asking. I would have a hard time giving 1000 $ for that car.

"The pictures speak for themselves in regard to the look, the issues are mostly mechanical. Great price! Be prepared to either tow it, or cart it off because of the running problem"
