A friend of mine posed this question to me earlier.....
'My question is, could you ever be whole at that starting price?'
My response was:
A sportomatic SWB 911 is a rare car……how many are left? Judging by the rust that you can see in the photos I'm sure it's also deep down as well. I don’t see how you could make much of a profit given the asking price unless you were able to do a lot of the work yourself. A nut/bolt restoration by a reputable shop would take a year or two and would most likely exceed $100K plus the asking price of the car……is this worth $125K finished?
If the restoration is done correctly it's probably worth it to a collector who knows how rare this car is.
What do you guys think????
The asking price is $16K
