I would like to see where it was sitting.

When I restored my 58 Coupe, I wanted a car I could drive. I bought a numbers matching $1200 hulk in 1981 and started cutting and welding. A friend that was perhaps one of the best metal men born was going into business shortly after. He rebuilt the structure with a combination of nos and aftermarket sheet metal. Perhaps the only panel that didn’t require repair was the engine lid. Eventually, he painted it and started assembly as I was working a real job at the time. I did rebuild the mechanicals, brakes and reupholstered the interior and gave him the parts to install. I drove the car home in September 1995 and drove it in good weather until I sold it at a very weak moment in 2010.
The point is, this is a car that you could build into a usable driver if you did as I did and go thru everything and rustproof the internals. You just have to buy it right. My 68 911 is almost done. I have a 61 Roadster as the next project that I bought right in 1988 and then my -6. Buy it and restore it or buy it and put it away until you can. My 2 cents. Charlie |
