    '68 911S for sale . . .

    VIN = 11800182
    Eng# = ?
    Trans# = ?

    Ivory on black (I think)

    . . . . The sale of this 1968 Porsche 911S project includes six months of marriage counseling to cover the length of its restoration. This is a joke, of course. The restoration will take much longer. Not that it matters with the recent barn-find 911S selling for just under $100,000 and fully restored examples regularly exceeding $125,000. Long-hood 911s of all stripes continue to explode in value with the rare short wheelbase and “S” models commanding some of the highest prices. This particular short wheelbase “S” retains its matching numbers engine and boasts an optional sunroof and desirable Light Ivory over Black color combination. Now for the bad news: the 911 was partially disassembled in preparation for a restoration that never took place and the dreaded tin worm has worked away at the rockers, front fenders and other spots on the Porsche’s frame. “Not unreasonable fixes,” one might say in the safe confines of a therapist’s office. But not exactly inexpensive, either. With the amount of work required to return this 911 S to original condition, the buyer will need to stay below a $70,000 purchase price to have a decent chance of emerging from the process with finances and family in tact. But what an absolutely fantastic car he or she will have when complete. Find the Porsche 911 S for sale here on eBay in Oakdale, NY . . .

    PS Would this vehicle do better if it was in a barn? . . . or a field, maybe?
