price check 73 t
 

what would be a fair price for a 1973t,with the wrong engine and trans,with some rust issues not major.and 77 seats and interior, thanks,frank

Need more info....but a 1973T with all the original goodies goes for about 20k with no rust

Your car has wrong engine and trans.....deduct $8,000
Wrong interior.........deduct $4000
Rust deduct ??????

car is worth about 7-8k

good clean mostly original 2.4 cars go for more than $20k. Try $25k and up.

thank you very much
 

your comments seem to be along the same lines i am thinking,the battry boxes are rusty and need replacing,it needs a patch in the rear floor,also,it has a 2.7 motor which is in need of a rebuild,rings at the very least,also a new interior,plus a paint job,i thought around$ 4,500, but do i need the work,or do i go for a realy good daily driver that is complete,and enjoy driving it instead of laying under it, i think i am leaning towards the later,what do you guys think? thanks,frank

From your brief description, it sounds like that car will need a lot of work/time/money to make it the "really good daily driver" that you want. It's not clear to me if the $4500 you mention is what you think the car is worth or what you estimate is the cost of repair, but nearly all here will agree there are no $4500 Porsches if that's what you meant (engine rebuild? new interior? rust in battery boxes and rear floor? full repaint?--you're already into five digits for repairs.)

If it were my choice, I'd continue looking for the nearly complete, really good daily driver--spending more money upfront, but saving much in repairs, time, and replacement parts down the road.
