Just a joke.

It's my 84 3.2... had it 20 years, retired from Daily Driver duty several years ago, and locked it down in "the crypt" with all my old racing tires and junk...

My neighbors are doing an addition on their house.... amazing how much dirt and dust can accumulate in a few months...

With "barn find" cars bringing ridiculous money, I thought I'd share... looks pretty authentic to me...

Don't clean it! that dirt on top probably adds a couple grand to the asking price..

There is a slightly flamboyant guards red 930 Targa with Pennsylvania plates sitting under a tarp in a gated driveway in a neighboring town. I so want to know the story. Why is it 3,000 miles from home, and why does it have DP looking rockers and rear end?

Rumspringa?

Sounds like a case for Crockett and Tubbs.

I recently "found" this one during my search for a '74 targa:


It ended up following me home. Give it a month or two and a Gulf Blue '74 911S is going to hatch out of that chrysalis

Dude, think of the children.

I'd have jumped the fence long ago if it were in a good gated community, but unfortunately, it is gated because it is in a dive of a place. Car does not belong with miles of the neighborhood it is in.
