Looks like a weekend bolt in.
No axles, wiring, exhaust....really nothing was done.
I wonder if that tranny will spin the right way???

I do see a few ways they could attract the serious parties...
pics of the front trunk and radiator install.
hell hole pics
(typical rust info, yadda yadda)
a more zoomed out picture of the rear trunk. (how much was cut out? i cut a bunch out on mine, and if I were to sell, I'd make sure and show the edges of the cut out in the pic)
Which 911 brakes did they use?
What's the situation with the axles? Are there axles that come with? adaptors, or modified axles? Will they bolt in?
Trans cooling? Is there an external pump to get the trans fluid to the front of the car? Or is there an aux cooler closer to the drivetrain to save on weight and stress to the trans fluid pump?

If I were a seriously interested person, those would be the things I'd look for. Hopefully if the seller sees this, they wil be able to make positive use of it.

Why wouldn't it? It's still in the same configuration and orientation as it was in the subie, only it moved to the back of the car.
Maybe they plumbed the transmission fluid in backwards and changed rotation direction of the output shafts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)
