Am I missing something? eBay ad
 
In my ebay travels, i keep an eye on the early 911s, and this got my eye.

Note the buy it now price...am I missing something, or is this guy delusional?

Can't fault him for trying ...

It's a rust free classic!

(Buy the classic, get the rust for free).

But it's a rare '72...shouldn't take much (NOT!) to put that back together.

I was looking at that ad, trying to figure why even advertise? I had a hard time finding ANY part on it that the lowliest of project tubs could need. I think it's worth more as scrap metal than the bother to sell it on eBay, but he has WAY different ideas!

I wouldn't pay $17 for that rotted out POS..

Wow, I just sit in amazement trying to figure out WHAT you could actually need off that.

And this just cracks me up...
..."The car was originally "no-sale brown" and has been repainted rose. There is no limit to good taste."

Paint?? Did you say there was some color of paint under all the rust? Dang, I must have missed that in the pictures.

Isn't the oil-filler door on a '72 worth at least $1750?

If the hinge isn't broken.

may not look like much now, but imagine the possibilities

engine, crappy seat, transmission and you could have a real fun sand or snow buggy without having to do any body work!! What a blast that would be.

so you could sand blast the chassis and get a good resto-basis! Clever idea!!
Have to move near the sea and a country where it is legal to drive at the beach...
but could be dessert as well!

Think about it.

:rolleyes:

Didn't say it would last very long, but for the short term it could be fun.

Or could even do some type of Mad Max retro-buggy out of the beast.

:eek: I actually thought you were joking! The POS has no brakes, no usable suspension, and is rotted out and falling apart! It is waaaaay past being worth $.02...

With a bit of TLC (and $100k) this will be a beauty again :D
