Here is a link to a restoration/improvement to a 1965 911 back in 1983 when the older the Porsche the cheaper it was. This link give a neat look into the past and helps explain what happened to a lot of old 911's, that would be insane today.

What a brilliant find!
Interesting also to see how more than just the aesthetic sensibilities have changed (That car would be pretty much a survivor with associated premium today if he'd just parked it!) when I look at the guys doing the dipping with only one wearing gloves and no breathing equipment to be seen!
