A Bleak & Desolate Wasteland For Porsches

This was an emotional experience for me. I could not help but to think of the joy someone once felt when they bought the car when it was new. How did they get to this state?

Just the fact you visited said graveyard and didn't end up buying a rusted ut 911, you are a stranger man than I

hell I'm sitting at my computer here thinking.... doesn't look too far gone to save somehow hahaha

And I am looking at that windshield thinking it is totally salvageable....

Turb-OH Brad

Oh, there are many cars there that I contemplated saving. Fortunately for me, nobody was around, and I have not had the courage to call back to talk prices...

What's that little red number in the distant background?

Link is interesting, but the "4-cam Heaven" story is a contrapositive to the wasting old cars.

Turb-OH Brad

I still think this car should have been inside or covered. It was one of the only nice cars there, and it got dumped on with snow later that day.

Want it!!!

Short wheelbase with Fuchs...possible S. Those "oscar" rally lights are getting hard to find too.
I'm curious about the 356 they were so kind to cover with a bedliner.

Turb-OH Brad

Which one?

GTgears

I would have been writing down vins, especially on those 356s. I had in my possession a RHD 1965 912 a few years back. It was rusty but given where things have gone on early cars I was a fool to sell the thing for $500. Today I don't want to think what that chassis is worth...

What is this operation, Ohio is not a hot bed for Porsches!

Ed Hughes

Too bad those aren't RWB's rotting away.

"contrapositive"....now THAT'S something I can use for sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best to you, Bird! That's awesome....

Oh, now that's rough. I like Rauh Welt cars. Nakai San is an artist, and so long as you view his cars as art, they make a lot more sense.

Just because you are not a fan of 19th Century Impressionism, that doesn't mean you should be mad at Claude Monet for ruining a perfectly good 13x16 profile cotton canvas.
