    Historically, this would've ended up at EASY to help save other cars with donor parts...now? I know I've seen much nastier 356's saved...

    Hopefully, all is well. I wonder if the owner got Tourette's after the accident.

    Seriously? Name me one person that would pay upwards of $25,000.00 for a worn out 2.4 CIST motor and trans. Peter is right, that thing would have gone to me and been spread all over the early 911 community a few years ago. Now, it is going to some fool as a "project car". Now you can see why I rapidly running out of early 911 parts.
