I am looking at a potential project and would love your input on what you think the project is worth or things I should consider.
The story is that the wife is selling her husbands car after he passed unexpectedly which is why there is very little information about the state of the car or history.
It has 155k miles and has been in the body shop getting ready for paint. Supposedly the engine was rebuilt 8 months ago but I have no documentation as to what was actually done to it besides a 9k bill from the shop who is now out of business after 20 years. Apparently he drove the car to the body shop and the car is registered.
The car comes with plenty of boxes with OEM Porsche seals and trim pieces. Tool boxes with bolts. New tail lights and taillight housing. Brand new Bilstein suspension and links. All the glass is included. New dash gauges.
The dash is cracked and will need replaced but the leather interior looks to be in good shape.
The owner bought the car for 30k. The claim is that everything is there in order to put the car back together and all that is left is paint. However the lack of records is concerning.
The transmission goes in to gear and the clutch pedal seems firm. I have not been able to start the car as it's been sitting but going over there today to see if I can get it started.
Thank you for your insights!
