It's a lot of hard work to keep a waterpumper in good/prime shape. God knows mine doesn't look it (horrible paint, dented fender, etc.) but mechanically it's in excellent order. Problem is most people wouldn't know or appreciate the many hours (and dollars) required to get it mechanically solid. When you can get a Honda Civic that looks halfway decent (i.e. no mismatched body panels, dents or whatever) and runs well for $4,000, why would most people be willing to pay the same amount for a "boring" 20-year-old 944 with some cosmetic issues?

I keep mine for me - not anyone else.
