Hey guys,
Looking for parts for my 944 and sitting right next to the car I'm working on, there is a 1968 911t. Well I'm assuming at least. The front driver fender took a hit but the damage doesn't look extensive. The rest of the body looks good and the floor panels still look in very decent shape. The owner of the salvage yard is a personal friend. Is it worth buying? possible welding anything needed and sell the car as a rolling chassis? I have a friend who is a really good welder. I'm going back today and I can take pictures. Let me know your thoughts

If you haven't done so already, call your friend and tell him to hold it then run down there first thing this morning with your $200.
Worst case you flip it for a tidy profit.

Thats what i was thinking, subaru turbo swap, custom racing interior.
You can keep it cheap but still good quality and loads of fun.
I'd build it for myself ofcourse...but you could cash out quickly to be honest.

You might want to remove it before some hacker creates a "new you".
Good luck with the buy.

I got to go back and check man but a couple of decent VW Sciroccos, triumph spitfire, 300zx, Saab 900s, I have go back with eyes wide open. Lol most of the stuff isn't picked clean like the 912. Howell people don't apparently drive imports. I'll try to get back over and take an inventory. What are you looking for?

Congrats on the purchase! You can't lose there. 
Nice! Basically the only other guy I know of that messes with British cars around here has a TR250 sitting in his backyard (along with a couple of Herald 12/50s, Spitfires, and a GT6+, all just wasting away). We've got a couple of MGs, also (B GT and a Midget). Gotta love the old little British cars! Haha
