Yeah ... I have the P-car bug, and I don't have $$$$-hey 5k would be a real stretch. But I want a 911, bad. Hey maybe someone will give me some rides instead? Hey this thing felt good at 90MPH it just looks like crap. Hey its a lot better than this and this guy wants 3.5k for a shell
with no engine--http://forums.pelicanparts.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=238816

If I got this one I would have no intention of fixing it up -- maybe just getting a detailer to clean up that clear coat as best he could, and drive the thing to work and back for a while. Then I could look for a nice roller to put this motor into--are the heat exchangers part of the motor or part of the car? Also...I like the fact that the 74 is pre-smog--but unfortunately you have to go to 76-76 to get a galvanized car--and I think the VIN must stay with the shell you are putting it into, not the car you are coming from, no?

So what would you pay at the absolute bottom end for this? 1,000?
1,500? 2000? 2500? Assuming you would drive it into the ground and
part it out..btw what is it worth in parts/parted out?

Ok well thanks. I know I am more sane than to get this, but going through this process will help me value the next cars I look at...
