    The Gas Tank design- 1 of a kind a standard late gas tank.....and so many other strange statements and pictures. Cant see any traces of a SWB car, let alone a 901 proto. Is he claiming this was first one of the 901 protos, then a T/R, then a 70 T and lastly a 1986 slantnose????

    very strange add....

    The seller is clearly looking for a sucker who is willing to buy into his hype and story of the magic blueprints. The seller must have been a commodities trader where hype is te most important part of a sales pitch... Caveat emptor

    1986 slopenose convertible? In reality it is a hack-job 1971 911T Karmann coupe, probably worth $1000 IF someone is drunk enough to offer that much. Our northern lads like to have a bit of fun, and pull pranks to get them through the long winter nights.

    Frankly, it reads like a schizophrenic wrote it. Ever see "A Beautiful Mind"?

    I'd like to think it's excellent drugs, but more likely he's simply delusional.

    Not sure how many times he's advertised this POS, but he's adding more content this time around...

    Actually, it makes total sense that this 1970 911T is the first 901 prototype.

    Back in the early 60's when Porsche engineers were designing the 901, they must have decided to use the Factory Time Machine (aka Der ZeitMaschine) to speed up the development cycle. This facilitated access to a dealership in 1970 where they purchased a new T and brought it back to their time.

    Yup, that's gotta be it.
