964 Turbo market
#856
Like many cars I have seen the inventory of nice no-stories 964 Turbos go down to almost nothing. I may put mine up for sale and not sure where the market is for a 53k mile, extremely original car in Slate Grey. I love the car but I also like working on them and I have my eye on a new project which is why this is coming up. I also may go back to a track car and build one up for that purpose but I can't do it with this in the garage. I can always ask whatever I want but just trying to see if anyone knows of any that have sold recently. BaT on these cars is not very applicable as they have sold 2 964T's since the pandemic subsided.

Unless there is need to do it right away. I would start by cleaning the engine and checking for leaks after the first 500-1000 miles. This way you can see if it needs more than just basic gaskets replaced.
GL I am sure you will have lots of fun with it. Defiantly not a color you see on these cars often and will catch a lot of attention.
This crew is always happy to help and there are lots of threads on DIY projects.

Anthony's advice is always right - if it were me I would first before even driving it at all change all the fluids and fuel filter and adjust the valves and check all the brake lines and make sure the mixture is about right...and the injectors are all flowing then I would be finding the right body guy to straighten out the front pan and put the factory match undercoat on it (forgot which one that can be found searching on here) repaint the tins also the fuel pump cover tin, with new bolts etc...
And amazing color combo indeed, and you got it for a price you can enjoy the car and not worry too much about valet parking...

Thanks
Thanks all. Appreciate the advice and yeah, agreed on most of it. Cobalt what paint work are you talking about? There was a harness installed and obviously that’s a dead giveaway for being tracked, but other than the front tray being not properly aligned/attached I didn’t really believe there to be bodywork done. I saw the paint readings and just assumed that was a variance in factory paint. Am I way off there? Appreciate your insight.

Underside
I will indeed start by cleaning all the underside with a dry ice blasting. Brakes and their components front and rear will be replaced. Suspension was done in 2020. You guys are great! Plan to drive this one and have fun with it.

Trust me my turbo is original paint and it is more of a curse than a blessing when it comes to being able to enjoy these. I love greens and blues. Finding another like this won't be easy. I know of one 3.6T and very few 3.3's in this color. One of my favorites.

@Boosted321 I’d recommend starting a new post for your car. Tons of questions will come up and it’s will help you search / keep it orginzed. . So we can keep things on topic as much as possible.

Looking over the red 3.6 on BaT it seems like for the right price would be a fun project. I bought a very rough 964 Turbo that didn't sell on BaT on the cheap and brought it back to beauty on my own and sold it a couple of years ago (why!!!). I don't know about the interior leather issues and the missing vin sticker in the passenger door jamb, but the rest seem to be reasonably easy to fix. Maybe I'm missing something and if so let me know. I'll be bidding to point.

RoW Guards Red/black 3.6 up for auction in Switzerland. Shows 850 km (528 miles). Says in the description the mileage shown is since it’s restoration along with one owner which is kinda misleading if you don’t read it carefully.
