Thread: I saw this on eBay today. Yikes!

  1. #1

    I saw this on eBay today. Yikes!

    Part of the description says, "Very presentable car, could use some minor cosmetics, mechanically sound".

    Huh? Anyone consider this "minor cosmetics"?

    is it just my eyes or is that a piece of timber supporting the left front part of the floor pan for the photo?

    It's a really straight pan though.



    Sounds like a politician is selling the car.

    frank it is the optional wooden skid plate like on a F1 car for when the suspension falls off due to the rust damage

    lets see - RHD 2.4's are going for $600K so I guess anything with a windshield and two doors and a 911 badge has to be at least $50k regardless of the wood skid plate upgrade

    It's a BHCC Fred Flintstone recreation.

    It's a '74. This is going to be a tough sale.

    Had this been a long hood it might have sold for $50,000.

    Kudos to the photographer, it takes cojones to stand underneath that car while it's on a lift ! How it got up in one piece is a mystery ;-)
