DO NOT BID ON THIS ITEM UNLESS YOU HAVE FUNDS NOW TO PAY FOR IT!! IT IS BEING RELISTED DUE TO A BIDDER THAT DID NOT FOLLOW THROUGH. 1973 PORSCHE 911t COUPE THIS IS NOT A SHOWCAR! If you are looking for and early 911 showcar feel free to scroll down to the ones with starting bids of 30K+ or if you're looking for a long project rust bucket with no engine you can scroll up and you may find one around 2k. What I have here is a rust free California 911 that needs very little to make it a daily/weekend driver or parade car. The Origin About 9 years ago, the previous owner brought this car into my shop for a paint job/light restoration. After a month or so I found it impossible to contact the owner so I filed for a lien sale. After a period of 90 days I became the legal owner of the car. As of now all of the DMV fees are paid to current date and there is a "non opp" on the car so it will incur no fees until the new owner regs. it. I have clean clear title in my name. The Car I stored the car for about 7 years and only recently decided I would do something with it. I repaired a few dings that it had and refinished it with Standox Silver base coat/clear coat. The original color is "936" silver, although when i painted it i did not paint it the exact correct color. The exterior is clean, strait and shiny and with all the trim black it looks very sharp. I think that covers the exterior. The interior needs a little work. The dash has the normal cracks that most early 911's have and the carpet is old but serviceable. It has new door seals installed. The driver seat needs to be replaced (it has an aftermarket Recaro high-back seat that is very rough). The original low-back passenger seat has no rips and is serviceable along with the original rear seats. The front door panels as well as the rear side panels are in very good original condition although the door pockets could use some love (common for early 911). The leather panel between the rear seats and rear glass is sun cracked and should be replaced. The headliner is intact and complete; it may be able to be cleaned to look great, if not a headliner is not very expensive. The Engine ENGINE # *6131447* It has the original engine and 5 speed transmission intact. The car does start although it hasn't been driven for over a year, since the day I drove it from my shop in Campbell to my home in Modesto (about 120 mi) and it ran fine. Now after sitting so long the tank has old bad gas that needs to be changed. I had a specialized Porsche tech come to my house last week and help start the car and it does start and run with the help of starting fluid and feeding it fuel manualy. The Porsche tech deemed the manual fuel injection pump to be working. The engine smokes! Quite a bit! The Porsche tech said that that is to be expected from an early 911 engine that's been sitting so long,and if you are familiar with Porsche flat 6 engines you know this is normal . I haven't driven the car for over a year and even then was only for one 120mi trip. I will make no guarantees on the engine as I said it does start and run and it drove strong a year ago. I "think" with a tune up it will be a good serviceable engine. The 5 speed gearbox goes through all the gears smoothly and when driven a year ago it ran fine with no slipping/groaning or popping out of gear. The windshield has a crack down the middle. I have and will include brand new front and rear windshield rubber. The undercarrage is rust free and original! This in my opinion, may be the most attractive part of this 911. If you have shopped for an early 911 you surely have found that a rust free floorplan and original front apron is a rare find. This 911 has both! It doesn't appear it has ever been in a major accident since all welds and undercoating under the bonnet are factory! The right side battery box is cherry, left side only has very minor surface rust, intact and easily repairable to make perfect, even the steering access box is rust free! The only trim needed as far as I can tell is the left outside rear-view mirror, rear bumper decco rubber strip and windshield squirters. The brakes are complete from reservoir to 4 wheel disks but I would suggest the whole system be flushed and serviced. The sunroof does NOT open and close, I dont know what it needs. It may be something as simple as a $10 fuse or switch or a $150 motor or cable. In my opinion to make this a drivable car it needs a tune up, brake service, battery and a drivers seat, after that a few weekends and very little money this will be a great parade car. V.I.N.# 9113100955 odometer reading 57362 So there is no confusion, the odometer reads 57362. since I am not the original owner and the car is almost 40 years old I can't attest that is the original miles. I would think it has turned over. TERMS I welcome overseas bidders as long as you have funds available and arange pickup and shipping on your own.
