I agree. For $22K that car is a steal.
Be that as it may, I'm a little confused why you are chasing cars that aren't for sale? This market is hotter than a firecracker for Porsches. My cars have come from keeping my ear to the ground, hanging with Porsche people, especially Porsche shops, and even the mechanics in those shops. These guys are talking to owners EVERY DAY and have the connections you need.
Of course, being ever vigilant on the selling sites is critical. Have you contacted Unobtanium yet? Maybe he has something for you in upstate NY?
FWIW, I put the word out a few years ago for my oldest son. One of my mechanic buddies called with a lead on a 88 3.2. We went and he bought it at what today was a great price! Sure it needed work but like you, he got it done himself and I dare say, that car isn't going anywhere anytime son and is a rocket ship!
Good luck. Put the word out.
