my thaughts: a lot of work will be needed and you'll need new interior parts to fill the holes where the cage ends sat.
maybe someone is cage-jelous and envies your car?
you could sell/swap it as is and get an untouched one instead.

(in the pack I see an other 911, so you wont be prived of one during your search)
Yes that is definitely a possibility. I do agree that the effort will be great and there will be added expense with replacing carpeting however I really like all of the other aspects of the the car which would be much greater to replace unless I found just the right car.

For example, this car has < 50,000 miles. It's had the top engine rebuilt ($15k), Fiske wheels which I like, Chip, Loud exhaust (I like that too!), Upgraded suspension ($3k). And the price was adjusted down to compensate for the roll cage so I have room to spend money and not go upside down.

I'm not sure there is a big enough group of buyers looking to buy a 993 for the track anymore and if there was it would take a while to find them and then I might not get the price I would like for the car......
