Reasonable or a Reach.....
Barn find 1969 911t
Seems to be a very big job ahead for whoever buys....... based on ad every system needs rebuild.... $30,000..... My experience is this would be a very expensive restoration at a professional shop. I would think if I had the money to restore it there would be a better car out there to start with. Legal Disclaimer: I have not seen this car or had it PPI'd.

Thread disappeared from Early S. They do that over there.
http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-cars-sale/858958-barn-find-1969-911t.html Plumber - Did you talk to him? His ad here doesn't say sold. Talked to the guy a few months ago (nice dude, not a flipper - car was in his family for a long time), and at that time it sounded like he wanted to try his hand at a restoration. Can't argue with a quick 30k and not lifting a finger, though. I haven't seen the car in person yet, so jury's out on value. I'm leaning toward very optimistic. Hope he gets every penny, though (anybody want a '71T in better condition?  )

Time after time, people in this forum seem to assume every car sold is sold at asking price; the $65K 73 hot rod and now this car, which didn't even have a posted price, just a suggestion from a restorer that it was $30K worth of car (which it is certainly not, IMO).

I did send a PM this morning and he said he couldn't believe the response.
Sellers inundated with interest typically don't move too far from ask (and he updated the ad to $30k/best) It's barn find tulip time. I don't get it. Bananas when restored 69Ts are 70k cars.. Judging by the 4 pics and description, the 73 was underpriced. |

Said it was sold
The owner texted me and said the car was sold.
I didn't actually talk to him I'm in Barbados but still need my Porsche fix!!  I didn't think it prudent to ask for the selling price. Last edited by plumber; 04-03-2015 at 12:06 PM.. |

If I were getting 14 phone calls before I got home from work, I wouldn't be giving any discounts. "Hey, Techweenie, you're third in line, and if the first two don't go for ask, I have eleven guys behind you that I have to call." OK, so maybe not fourteen people. But more than two, and I know the car is underpriced. More than five, seriously underpriced. |

I have a 70Tin the same shape. Maybe not as good. It's not for sale. But if it was I think it should be 45k$ as is.

Correction I use the CDN peso, so only 40k$ u.s is what I think a rough complete 70t is.

She's back.
TheSamba.com :: VW Classifieds - 1969 Porsche 911 T Coupe, complete, project car! Edit - "i have NOT tried to turn the engine yet..."  ..the dude you bought it from did and said it didn't turn. I'd a figured the WD-40 bath you gave the engine bay would have freed the thing up! Last edited by Flynt; 05-07-2015 at 01:30 PM.. |

I would love to hear from anyone who has first hand knowledge, or has seen this car in person. I am thinking about it but can be talked out of it. Feel free to rip it apart. Here are recent ads for it: TheSamba.com :: VW Classifieds - 1973 Porsche 911T ST Outlaw Tribute Hot Rod Thanks, Rich
