May be built on an old 911. I can pretty much assure you that you would NOT live in a house like that with a $250k 959 parked OUTSIDE! That is hilarious! What an idiot!

Yea - that's a 1978 959 - at least that's what year the pan is before the fiberglass was slapped on it.

Just like the 928 is probably a '83 vs. the '93 it is listed as...

Is that a white sheepskin or shamwow seatcover.


Think that's a cool 911 conversion. Most who know will know it's not the real thing. Everyone else would be a bit baffled as to what sort of car that was.

There used to be a company on CA that federalized 959's. Not sure if it's still around.

Why do you think he's selling his '93 928.

To pay for his shiny new red 959.

OK, which one of the Detroit gang wants to 'fess up?

It is a Detroit CL listing...

Genuine Polar Bear fleece?

Anyone notice the engine donor sitting next to the "959"?
