Default Unique 968 cab for sale..

This Cab is for sale on the west coast. The owner wants $14K for it. 60K and up to date on maintenance. It is a very unique car, a very early production car with all the unique, early features (#23 of 2,008), one of two in the color combo, and a option code 740 exhibition car but I don't know the history. Someone should grab it.

I would try to sell it to a Minn Vikings fan. Or a 49ers fan.

I see it also. It could be that the pass thru is folded down and you are seeing the backside of it

good call, seems like a lot of leather though, thought the carpet would meet the leather before the corner of that picture. also, it looks kinda low for the back side of the pass through.

jeff, do you have any data on the number of cabs with seats in the back?

From the rear shot, it doesn't appear as though it has the early exhaust tip and 'squared' rear 968 emblem...I would have thought such an early car would?

That is the early emblem. Can't tell about the tip.

Yes I do, of the North American cars, only the canadian cabs have the rear seats and the number is 55 produced.

Early 968's had a chromed (or stainless?) tip with a rolled edge. My '93 has this: it can be seen at the link below.

I can: it's (early) shiny. Most 968's are plain metal.

In all honesty, I think I'd rather buy the trike to the immediate right.

...What the Christ? Maybe it was Easter and he wanted it to be in the parade?
