Default 1988 Project Porsche 911 Targa (G50) for sale

I am Selling a 1988 Porsche 911 Targa that has front end damage. (I wasent the one who got in the accident, Fortunatly)
Silver Exterior, Dark Blue Interior.

Pro's about the car.
Desirable 1988 911 Targa with G50 Transmission
Low 76K miles
Very nice inside
No oil Leaks.
Runs and Drives
Clean Title

Cons.
Damaged front end.
Passenger door also has a wave.
Passenger quarter panel was lightly effected.

Asking $10K, Car will remain Clean Title once fixed. I believe it stayed Clean title because Insurance company appraised the damage not enough to "Total" the car because I bought it from a insurance Auction.
Im sure you guys know these cars are worth anywhere from $18K-$24K with this Mileage and in good condition.

That is not insignificant damage-the fact that the impact damaged the door and the quarter on the passenger side says that car is well bent. The fact it doesn't have a salvage title is irrelevant-it probably is some kind of technicality or loophole. Seems to me that the low miles and all your other "Pros" are pretty well negated at this time.

Sorry, it seemed to me like a "Sell job" with your "pros" noted on a severely damaged car at what I felt was a premium price, particularly in the economy.

Yes it is a damaged car but as you can see I wasent rying to hide anything. All pics are there and the pro's I listed are true. lol.

Its OK, Im just gonna give this a couple weeks and then part it out if no one wants a project.
I feel the price is fair. The car is fixable and its a pretty nice low mileage G50 911.

well it is a shame as it looked to be a nice example just prior to impact. Now I am afraid it looks like a part it out Job.

I am not sure what it would cost for two fenders, a hood, lower valance, both headlights, trim rings, front amber lenses, front smile. Door, any suspension damage and straightening required, and that is just what I can see from the limited pics.
It is a shame to see that is for sure ....
So wht's the story ? is it just one you picked up like this or is it ( or was it ) your car ?

I love a good story

ouch! That 911 looks to have been hit from the front and back. Note the ripple on the right side rocker and the creased rear fender.

But therein lies the problem, based on the damage all the way down the side-it isn't fixable-at least not cost effectively. Hence my initial reply. This is only worthwhile as a parts car. There is tub damage on this car. Nothing is straight anymore.
