Fritz is a hard act to follow. Very nice track car. Even if it is a 911. Just sell the Beast and be done with it Bill. You will be happier in the long run. Might as well cut your loses now and move on. If I keep buying parts for my car I am going to have to build another garage to keep it all in since I don't have a car yet to install it on. Soon!!!!

The line starts behind me. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) I finished my POC racers clinic with a borrowed 911 after my car broke. I'd never driven a 911 and had to immediately race wheel to wheel. I couldn't believe how forgiving they are as long as you don't abruptly lift, which is true in most cars. I finished 4th in my race and have much respect for the tail draggers, though I never admit it to their face. |

drivable is better for selling (I have had that experience of trying to sell non-runners, it is tough)
maybe you can put a cheapo engine and drive train in it (stock 1.7) and fetch a far better price than with no engine. if it drives, the price should increase a good deal. used 1.7 running motors are maybe in the $400-$800 range, teh increase in the selling price would I think increase more than that amount, and you'll probably sell it faster. good luck |

If you can find a buyer that knows what it takes to put such a car together, then you'll get alot closer to your investment than most of the guys here (on this club page) would pay. If you can find someone who was going to put together a similar car then you should do better. It all depends on how long you want to wait. If money is all you want then you'd do better to take off all the money parts and sell them separately, as they'll bring more than on the car.
There's a fair percentage of guys who still think you should be able to get a nice clean 2.0 for $2500! AND the economy is still sagging. |
