Cody,

Indeed the longhood market has taken off in the last several years and will probably continue as demand increases and supplies dwindle. Way too many of the longhoods met the crusher too soon. Rust is the culprit and finding a rust free example is not easy unless you want to spend the time and money in panel replacment, fabrication and restoration, which can add up.

I will tell you that I own a 1973.5T (the last of the longhoods) and I bought this southern car 15 years ago from an attorney who put $34,000 into its restoration (bare medal repaint to engine and trans rebuild, interior, etc, etc, etc). I paid $9,800.00 for the car, which at the time I thought might have been on the high side!! It was a smart investment.

Since then I have only improved it and kept it original. It is not my daily driver. Everything I read about the longhoods indicates that these early cars will soon reach the 356 status regarding value. If you have an opportunity to buy a decent 911T and can afford to keep it up, then buy one.

If I were to put my 1973.5T up on the market today, I would price it in the 30's. My mechanic has a 1973 T Targa and feels its value these days is north of 40K.


Good luck
