Default Looked at a "cheap" 93 RSA FS

No affiliation, Saw it at Audi dealer in NJ. Go to cars.com and search for '93 911. White, locking diff, no sunroof, 92k miles. Has had (poor)paintwork, drivers door had a DOT sticker. No records. Engine seemed strongThey are asking $20k but seemed somewhat flexible. sales guy Jim is a PCA member. IMO would make a perfect track car.

(sounds like a salvage)

A track chassis, with eyes wide-open.
A collectible, with wallet wide-open.
Tread w/ caution.

If it is the Jim I am thinking of he knows his Porsche's well and has a nice 914 track car. He also does some amazing photo artwork. Again assuming it is the same Jim I am sure you will get all the 411 on this car from him but can always have Will at Precision take a closer look for a PPI.

Yes it is the same Jim as he told me he has a 914-6. I am not going to pursue the car as there are too many issues and I'm not looking for another project, but thought someone here may have interest. Carfax shows a clean title.

I couldn't find this ad with a short search. Would you post a link?

(Why? -- because my no-free-lunch spidey sense is tingling at 220VAC.)

I've a feeling there's another shoe left to drop. (Watch this space.)

Just received an email from Jim...

"Adam

Sorry to disappoint you but I had personnally made an offer on the car Saturday. My manager finally agreed to it so I apologise that the car is not available. I did speak to the orig owner and it was in an accident a long time ago which the repairs have held up well but it would appear to have had the l/r quarter and drivers door replaced. Other wise clean and original car. Thank you for your interest.

Jim"






Oh well.
Enjoy in good health Jim!
