Amazing that it's not known here. He even sourced the CS coin tray it seems from the pix.

The pics are too old. They date back to 03. Who knows if its a legit sale.

This car needs a lot of work, including new paint.

Very interesting. Anybody know this car?

Tuff to tell the refinement of the build from those pix but looks like some has been a lot of jack doing this conversion.

Interesting I see the same car in Boston.

with a different set of pics. If you notice the plate, it doesn't look like a NEast regional plate.

as i said in the other forum, there are plenty of Turbos out there. One pops up for sale all the time. For the asking price of this specific car, you can buy a much better Turbo. The Powerhaus Turbo S replica (which has cooling issues and has a lower asking price) comes to mind. This car simply has too many issues to be worth 29.5K

This was the sellers response to my inquiry;

dino, the car is not totaly finished, and still needs some things. But it runs and drives fine. I dont have any better pics, but I do have more. The 993 headlight conversion is not finished, will need new paint, has a crack in the windshield, missing engine undertray and front fenderliners, needs door lock cylinders, needs hatch side trim pieces, and a few other little things are in need of attention. Email me your # and a good time to call and I can anwser any questions specificly.

not much to see. horrible pictures. The seller never responded to me 2nd email, nor has she called me. The ad was likely fake.

Fake ad? Perhaps.
But the was obviously built.
Funny thing is, it's never been mentioned on any of these forums.
Makes one wonder what else is out there....

Also funny to see nit pickers and tire kickers comment on a
car that has not been seen in person.
