I have owned my 1973.5T for eight years now and bought it with over 34k in receipts for restoration. The engine was totally rebuilt with all upgrades (oil fed tensioners, pop-off valve), the G15 was rebuilt, floor boards replaced, bare metal Sepia Brown paint as original, new dash, upholstery, etc, etc, down to the hand painted center caps on the fuch wheels. Since I bought it, the AC system (factory install) has been replaced and updated, gas tank restored, new airbox, all new CIS components, new fuel lines, window seals, koni shocks all around, and awhole lot more............................the only change? a Momo wheel.

The car has 124K and the rebuilt has 38K on it. So whats a car like this worth? Thats a great question, but considering all it needs to get it 100% is a new headliner (warn, but not torn up) and new suspension bushings, I would say its a 20K-25K car.

They made plenty of "T's", but how many are around that are not rust buckets, need engine work, beat interiors and require tender loving care? As for the Sepia Brown? Many dislike the color, but in reality it was Dr. Porsche's favorite (he had his 928 painted Sepia) and for an enthusiast, it was a conservative color for the year when compared to the oranges, yellow, lime green and electric blue variety popular in the early 70's. I love the Sepia strictly because its unique for the year.

Indeed the 73.5T CIS, and 2.4 engine makes it very desireable. It is the last of the longhoods, but you have to shop wisely for these older cars or they will be a money pit. I was lucky because I bought one almost 100% restored and saved a bundle. To me thats the way to buy any older car unless you have a big bag of cash, a ton of tools and alot of knowledge to do it all yourself. Afterall it is a Porsche.
