I recently came across a late 365 coupe that hasn't seen the light of day for the last 25 years. What should I be looking at before any price discuusions begin?

A loan application.



I would check it for rust - specifically holes that you could throw a dead cat through.

I hope you're able to pick it up.

Got a good friend who is into early Porsches and is very interested in checking it out!
Once we can get in and get some info, and hopefully purchase it. I'll share more, right now it has to be close to the vest. Don't want to get scooped!

One of the good things about Alabama - no title required for '73 or earlier vehicles.

you pick this up, you will be required to post a restoration thread, thought i'd just put that out there. so if you don't have one, buy a good digital camera
