    It's nobody's business what cars I own. I will tell you one thing though, they're air cooled and I beat 'em like they owe me money.

    I was able to contact the seller, and have basically sent proof to him that it is only a 1971 911T based on the photo proof he provided. Based on the reply from him, I think he may be starting to accept that. As you point out, he has not contacted any experts in the past. We will see.

    From the silly stuff on the eBay ad, the guy has to be joking. Plus, the poor photos, weird tracings, and strange language, this guy and his friends are having a good laugh. No?

    My sense is that he is seriously misguided. There are few, if any, knowlegable people to set him straight in the area. Anyway, we will see what he comes back with this time. His last response was serious enough.

    Misguided?

    I think you guys are all looking at the ebay version of the Nigerian looking to transfer $25,000,0000 into your account.

    What is he trying to show us here? He is serious because he wants to engage you..it's fun for him. Either that or he is truly off his rocker. Thanks.

    Is this man out of his mind??? It looks to be a prototype hack job, before they figured out how to do good hack jobs!! A 71 T with slant nose conversion and convertible top...This guy obviously never hung out in Los Angeles in the the 80's

    Porsche 911 901 Prototype



    To the local and to the general reader

    To the antiquary and to the uninitiated

    To the inquisitive admirers of fine arts we hope to prove this acceptable.

    Simple and uninportant as the subject may first appear,it will be found,upon a nearer view,well worth the attention of philosophical and historical inquires.

    Please view information provided by Lakehead University

    Their findings on my Porsche 911 brake pedal assembly compared to 1969-1974 brake pedal assembly

    Brake pedal-features an elaborate machine cammed design that increases brake assistance as the pedal is depressed,(Mechanical Power Braking)



    A Picture is worth a thousand words!

    Pictures by Lakehead University

    Brake Pedal assy. compare to 1969-1974

    Exhaust:the 901 exhaust ran underneath,so far and low to the rear that it often dragged.

    The Exhaust welded (prototype fabrication) to fit closer to the engine.

    Front Tub Tag P 911T Prototype 911T

    Pre-Production Number 121 0154 match to 1964 chassis # 300 121 (wrecked engine)#900 258

    engine # 6112050



    Chassis # 13326

    Porsche records indicate

    "Disguised with false fins & radiator"

    The engine is air cooled,no radiator,however if you view the louvered front fenders the design shape is exact to a single radiator fin

    Chassis # 13326 was owned by Ferdinand Piech utilized for development. "It is most certainly this same 901 Painted Yellow"

    Hoo boy...

    This whole thing just cracks me up...
    I especially like the artwork - I'm assuming the finger painting was original to the car?

    The sad truth is...somebody's gonna bite. Gotta love Flea Bay.

    Perhaps we'll see this car again in Scottsdale this January?

    Big yuks...

    Cheers
