    The horror: an eBay '72 with the 'S' pummelled out of it

    Not for the faint of heart:

    It's been turned from a Porsche to a "Porche."

    Like many have said before, the '80's were bad for early 911's...very bad

    AND THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO BE RESALE RED!

    Is this a real "S" or just a T? A shame either way

    The saddest thing is how much money was spent to do this "conversion" and eventually, how much money will most likely be spent converting this car back. There will be a day, akin to 356s now, that any car that isn't completely lost will be restored.

    Maybe it was too rusty to save, before the conversion.

    ...and maybe it deserved better than this; a fate worse than death.
