    So where does this absurdity end? Is a $500,000 T next? Farewell, enthusiast car! Hello, Trailer Queen!

    As a player with a chip in the game I'm not sure I understand why they had to restore a 26k mile car? Low miles and original condition are generally where the intrinsic value lies.

    Old news: Look for the gap to close between S cars and T/E cars.

    Nothing in the text about being restored/painted?? What am I missing??

    San Francisco Sports Cars is honored to offer this amazing 1973 Porsche 911T for sale. A 1973 1/2 Porsche 911 T coupe in silver with black interior and 26k original unrestored miles! This incredible "time warp" car has been in a top flight collection for the past 30+ years and has only just come for sale for the first time since.

    Having travelled a total of just over 26k miles from new, this car may be the most pristine example in the world. The front of the car from windscreen to the nose is covered with clear plastic film to protect her original paint, otherwise she is completely as she left the factory.

    This beautiful T was just gone over front to back by the world famous air cooled specialists at "The Stable" in San Francisco, they claim it is one of the most amazing cars of this vintage they have ever worked on.


    Anyone got the engine and trans number??

    What is this btw?????

    Too bad someone refinished the underside of the gas tank and underside of the pan in the front of the car. The rest of the underside looks to be original. That was not a good thing to do unless there was exposed metal there. The interior sure look great though.

    No way is that underside original.

    Brian, you know the drill on the tanks; EVEN IF (BIG if) the tank was perfect on the bottom (haven't seen one yet) it's difficult to salvage a tank that's been sitting with fuel in it for 20+ years. Rust, barnacles, and constant scaling usually make them a throw-away. Even if they are salvageable by sealing inside it still takes a cosmetic redo. Getting the texture and color right is the trick. Most people make the mistake of going too light on the grey. If you're going for proper patina'd "aged" look they have to be darker. Almost a green tint to them.

    Interior looks great on the original car, but that is a square pattern headliner, not the original hex pattern.
