    We can't save them all

    Some cars don't make sense to do; even if they were FREE.

    Case in point: The fine 301XXX offering from BHCC below; breathtaking even for them. Assuming you already owned the matching number case (wink, wink) they could give you the car and you would still be upside down in it after restoration. If a car could be explosive diarrhea it's this one.
    Check out the upper strut mounts; the entire front clip is from a later car (which means the serial number went bye-bye). The good news is that a BBQ would be dynamite in the back seat area.

    What, no pictures of the "American engine and transmission" on the website? I am heartbroken - I really also want to know what the propane tank in the back seat is for!

    The ebay pics clearly show that it's propane powered. This car is incredible.

    Why try to restore,,,,drive as is,,,,,that would be a killer sleeper car for the stoplight drags,,,,,and since it runs on LNG it is emission friendly.
    Masterful job of packaging,,,,,I think they could get more AND service is as close as your local chevvy dealer, no more rip-off, snootty
    foreign car shops like that one in Arizona

    I think the "Pyle" subwoofer in the trunk says it all...

    You can't go wrong with this car. It comes with a money back guarantee. Just crack the valve on the auxiliary fuel tank, loosen a battery cable, crank the starter, and instant insurance pay off!

    That is without question the most hacked, convoluted 911, I have ever seen. How? Why?

    So are you out of donor 912 bodies, Frank?

    Yep. No 912's currently to harvest from but this car needs a donor BODY. The ravages caused by a weed smoking, alt fuel-crazy, 'merican hot-rodder have taken too great a toll. It hurts my spirit to the core to let this car sink into oblivion.

    Although...

    Someone could make this a 13360 re-creation?

    It's just a matter of time before some weed-smoking, numbers-matching, 911-crazed nitwit builds one.
