    1973 911 T Targa Project

    Long story; I have 5 911s in various build state and not enough space to store them all. I helped a mortgage broker friend of mine find this car around 5 years ago. It was his first Porsche and I wanted him to start with a good car. The car drove tight and had no issues. He paid 17,000. A year later (unbeknownst to me) he took it to a shop in West Palm Beach for a carb rebuild and 2 years later the owner of the shop stole 6000 cash, the drive train, a set of 9 and 11 real fuchs and left the car outside his shop on the side of the road. My friend just happened to take a different way home and see his car sitting on the side of the road. Towed it home and called me. The shop closed it's doors and didn't bother to call him I guess due to the theft. I bought it from him a year later.

    Short story; 1973 911 T #9113110667 rolling shell, no engine or gearbox. Originally silver now maroon. Very little rust for an early car. Rust spot rear pass side floor fist size but not close to longitude, pass front battery looks like it had a battery leak and rusted, spot on drivers rocker 2" dia and bottom of both doors. Interior looks complete. Top looks fair but has 2 storage cuts on the outside top. Missing front sheet metal and rear quarters. This is a very solid car and should not be parted.

    Price; $2500
    I would have to check but I think I have all of the parts to put this car back together and on the road. Saving a lot of time chasing parts. Price does not include these parts and I will charge what I paid.
    I'll be glad to help with shipping but have no time no deliver. I have not taken pics yet and will post soon.
