Frankenporsche value?

OK... so it's a 1977 Carrera 3.0 that's titled as a 1980, with the engine out of an '84 and the interior out of an '86 or newer. The PO had it for sale here for $14K last year. He traded it to a dealer here in Phoenix who put it on Ebay:

Yes, but even scary cars have some value. It is worth $10K? Or is it SO scary that it's best left for the next sucker?

Hmm, I think I missed the part about it being a 1977 3.0 car.

Probably the best way to value it is to look at it in terms of parts. The 3.2 and transmission are worth 6K even expecting something wrong.

I admit, I am amazed that someone went to all of the trouble to replace the interior. The whole dash was swapped out and looks like the rear glass was replaced based on the 3rd brake light.

With a repaint, someone took off the VIN on the door jamb.


Looking at the car, I would almost say that the car was always a Carrera, but the VIN was changed to an earlier year.

I would be very weary about that!
