Default Inexpensive race car shell

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsc...6&vxp=mtrLooks to be a great basis for starting a track 928. All the hard ugly work has already been completed and nicely done. His auctions are all no reserve.

Wow. Local to me, too. Hmm... I, too, lack any room to store this, unfortunately. But I might have to make room!

Perhaps this will be your race car, HG...

Woah, just for the front bumper itself is worth it at the price right now.

But at least wait until the last day before bidding to not jack the price up (or you can bid now if you are the forgetful one)

I still have Mark Anderson's first big time race car for sale if anyone wants it... It won't be FREE or *CHEAP*, but you WILL be stealing it from me and it runs and drives RIGHT NOW!! Needs all fluids changed and needs harness re-cert and recharge on fire bottle if you want to race it...not to mention you might want a 5spd instead of the auto trans I have in it right now and you might want some more HP (which is why it comes with an '85 5.0 motor on the side!) but you could take it to DE's from now till the cows come home and LOVE IT!

Yeah, that baby is SCREAMIN your name! You've said that you're getting more serious about being a DE'er, well, this looks like a very nice start to a track car that needs a new home, especially as low as the bids are now!

I had a few glimpses of this car while it was under construction.
Very high quality.


All the best to the seller.

Ok if one of you guys don't want it I'll buy it. I might need a little help with the logistics of getting it to the west coast. I'll contact the seller and see if he is willing to drive it part of the way west.

If some one local wants it I won't bid but a spare shell is something I can use.

Thanks
Sean

Had immaculate silver paint, all body work custom by Kevin Michael IIRC, up in PA.

Wow.

It scares me how tempting this is. I'm watching the auction. And figuring out where I can store this thing...

Mike,
This is a no-brainer. Buy it now and worry about storing it later.

I think it's time for Dad to build a nice little race shop on his property...
