Gotta love it. Mini parts hauler.

The for sale sign says $450,000. Would you rather have this or a C GT?

Beutiful 6.

Replica. A reeeally nice replica.

Lotsa nice 356s there.

We had a really nice day for it but it's just not the same as it was at Dunkels. I found a door handle for my car and had it re-keyed (thanks Mark). There were some nice looking British cars there but who gives a rats ass.

hands down - the 356. Any damned fool can build a super car if you throw enough money at it but the 356 is pure poetry.

Mind you at $450,000 it's all theory.

Its also possible the 356 guy gets a lot of "how much", but since he kinda wants to keep it.. he posts 450k to say how much he'd let it go for

Andrew

What kind of wheels are those on the /6? And what is that thing that looks like a 3rd tailpipe?

I think they are cookie cutters. I think.

cookie cutters




and I agree with Andy on the $450,000 356, I see it being worth that nember less 1 zero

The 356 for 450K is appreciating in value everyday. That radiator laden Carrera GT is depreciating and it has a freakin radiator!

If it's a factory 4 cam car it's worth (and will bring) 450K.... The last one I worked on brought 410K in 2003, after being purchased 6 months prior for 250!

Its now in Seinfeld's collection after being imported to and then back from Australia....

Different world- Definately not the typical "914 guy" that plays with these cars..

Of course the car that I worked on last was raced at Leman in 1960 and 61 and had all the paperwork- the owners manual was appraised at 20K bucks because it had never been removed from the envelope it came in!

cookies and its a third tail pipe, glade I could help..!!

The 3 outlet muffler is for street/track use. Cap the side and remove the 2 center outlet caps and you have almost megaphones. Reverse and it is quiet and drive home mode. John Straub has a similar setup on his 914-GT as do a lot of the R-Gruppe cars.

Are you kidding? 45k for a Carrera? You couldnt do a top end on the 4 cammer for that much...

Jake, even you would take the Carrera GT on the track... you better confess to that!

Im not a 356 guy anyways, so I wouldnt be able to distinguish it..

I see now, I missed the Carrera on it. Now it all makes some sense

Elliot, good pix...thx for posting
The red 917 was an outstanding clone, the importer ( cars are from Australlia ?) says it was headed for some sorting out, shift linkage etc.
Power is a weber'd 2.4 with a standard front fan. The "Flat " fan on top appeared to be an electric exhaust type fan, and just there for the sake of being there.
I don't think that the kind of money these will be selling for, another $10,000 would be an obstacle for a functioning fan. The Porsche horiz fan is totally bolt-on too

Yeah, I'd take it to the track and more than likely crash it on purpose!

I try my best not to even ride in vehicles with radiators, driving them is almost like a sin.

I felt sorry for this poor old guy . . . at least his AAA membership was current. . . .
