I found a 69S what's it worth?

[tommybarlow23]

I found a pretty nice (in my opinion) 1969 911S. It shows 98K on odo, which seems true, but no records. Leakdown tests are all good and no oil. Looks like engine may have been rebuilt but the numbers seem to match. It has been sitting for 12 years but passed emissions here in Utah.

The car needs new badges, the paint is good but there is a small bubble on the hood and it seems a shade off of the factory color. The fit of the panels is OK, but the driver's door needs to be rehung and the fenders need slight adjustment for better gaps. The dash has typical crack just past gages on the right and the steering wheel leather is hanging on, needs re wrap. The door panels are ok but the pockets are trashed, the carpet is the cheap aftermarket stuff and the front clip has some fiberglass that looks to be an attempt to fill in rust from battery. It needs chanbe back to dual batteries, the floor pans look pretty good, no visible rust around the body. Transmission needs 1st gear synchro, cold start needs reconnecting/rebuild, needs new shifter couplers, rear wheel could use new bearings.

I was thinking about dumping $3K into mechanical issues and about $3K into cosmetics (RS door panels, new badges, steering wheel, dash, carpet) any suggestions on where money is best spent will be welcome as well.

Now the real test:
VIN 119300954
Motor 6391344
Color 6852-L ?

I have a Porsche guy here trying to buy it from me. I have been buying these cars for 2 years and admit that I do not know everything. You guys seem to know the market very well. If anyone can help me put a value to the car or are interested in purchasing it, email me and I'll send photos

RS door panels will hurt more than help the value. The worn originals would be better left in if you're planning to sell.

You should run....Fast. There's more than you see and $6k isn't going to make a dent.

Yes, he is a nice guy and car was very very nice.

Given the market, a car in the condition you stated is worth about $30K. No BS.

Look at the Porsches tab and the 69s is the only album I have up

Take a look and tell me what you think for value.

This guy is offering me $20K

I got it for much less from an old guy that had to sell one of his babies to pay off debt. He chose to hand on to his 67 Jag Roadster e type

Hell, I'd give you $20K tomorrow for that car, no inspection needed.
