85 Porsche sale question

1985 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2
Guards red, black interior beautiful car
201.9 odo miles currently records since 1999
well maintained by local Porsche shop
has latest vehicle registration & emissions
top end engine rebuild < 8 k miles ago
new clutch < 8 k miles ago
trans rebuild < 13 k miles ago
new fuel pump < 5 k miles ago
starts easily, runs great
small dent LF fender else body very good condition
Momo wheel
excellent stereo/speaker
biggest problem: rust LF near control arm attachment
also small rust spot drivers door frame
interior fair to good condition
The rust would require cutting away the rust and welding in a new piece of metal.
Roughly one foot square piece of metal bent to shape.
While most buyers probably would not be interested because of the rust, I think
somebody could either get a cheap (~$ 7500) car to fix or keep as a parts car.
I'm not getting much response.
Price too high or just too much work for a 201 k mile car?
Thanks for any thoughts

Are you the owner/seller? Why only 201 miles in the last 10 years?...thats the question that would scare me if I was looking at cars. It has been almost a 100% of my experience that a car that has not been driven is because there is something very wrong with it or the owner is affraid of an inpending failure.
That being said....I'll trade you a 3.0 engine for it.

What would disturb me most is that, at close to 200k miles, only the top end was rebuilt. At that mileage, I think it's unthinkable not to do the bottom end as well.

Hi there,
if I could organise reasonable shipping charges to Melbourne/Australia (anybody got connections?) I might be in the market....
Could you upload more pictures to photobucket.com, please?
Best regards
Martin
