froutlaw valuation

crynomad · 08:48 AM

Hi, there..I am looking for advice on valuation,
This is obviously not your typical matching numbers car... As a matter of fact it’s the exact opposite, I call it the “froutlaw” short for Frankenstein outlaw.
The car started its life as a 79 SC Targa and at some point got converted to a turbo wide body slant nose cabriolet... That was I guess Frankenstein attempt 1, which is the state I got it in.
The result …“froutlaw”… a 993 super wide body fiberglass conversion, 86 3.2 engine and tranny, converted to coupe with 11 and 9 replica fuchs and all dipped in plastidip.
I took the whole thing a part and rebuild what can be rebuild minus Engine and tranny, reinforced the chassis and installed coilovers, sandblasted and painted all suspension and smaller parts like pedal cluster, hand brake and levers etc. every part except the wire harness was out of the car at some point of this project.
The big question, given the franken conditions is, what would be a good asking price and is there merit in trying to even sell the thing.

it's put an ask of 19.5 on it and see if someone likes it enough to make you a decent offer.

Looks like a cartoon.
Somebody'll buy it. Anything under $20k will do it.
My Gawd, it's fugly.

I like it. Good basis for an extreme outlaw build. Needs redic big turbo.

My thoughts exactly.

Did Maaco paint this or is it a rattle can special?

Very easy to increase in value.

Place pop-rivets on every corner. Claim that RWB did it. Millennials will flock. Price will go up - guaranteed.

Add a few decals, list it on BAT and off you go !

BTW those Fuchs, if genuine, are worth a pretty penny.

Replica wheels. Nothing on it is worth much.

You missed the part where he said the whole car is plasti-dipped.

I guess I didn’t believe he meant ‘all’ in the literal sense, I just assumed it was all of the wheels. So the entire car has its own protective shell now. LMAO. That’s got to add some value to it, right?!?

I kinda like it. I'd like it more with an LS1.

Selling off the 3.2 will offset that cost a bit.

Boydyrs · 08-24-2018, 08:18 AM

It already has a start with that - roof appears to be riveted on in the back (just behind the quarter windows on both sides).

On closer look those look like they are holding the quarters on as there some more at the front of the quarter, adjacent to the door

Lol y'all funny.

Don't like the 993 front end conversions on older cars.

I'm planning to build an outlaw rat-rod V8 911 once I sell my current air cooled
