Default 968 shell available - strait/clean title $500

Hello Listees,

OK, how about $500? Everything you see is included except the torque tube. money talks















1992 968 shell in Cali, 95492 - WYSIWYG

It still has all the rear bumper assembly/lights and all that jazz. Never smacked - was painted on on the drivers side at one time, but a pro job. Front rails/structure completely strait and has headlight hinges. There are no dings other than on the doors - small ones.

It was a tip and the tip harness is gone, pass. door harness is cut, otherwise all electrical is unmolested. All glass intact except w/shild and rear deck. Hood hinges are completely fubar. It's a good starting point for a caged race car, re-tub your smacked car or to cut the rear off and graft it to a rear ended 944 (much easier to graft all the sheet metal than to go the John Stephen's route).

There is no suspension front or rear (obviously. . . ) so you will need a flat bed or utility trailer. It is pretty light at this point and I have rolling jacks that we can load it with. I have the title signed off by the P.O.

Call me if you are serious.

I'm an easy guy to deal with and I am motivated to see it go.

I don't, but I'd like to know the condition of that partial dash. Is it cracked? If not, let me know.

If this had been available in June after I crashed Franky, Franky II would be in a 968, not a 944S body

Yeah, my timing sux with this.

I had some guy that HAD to have the tip harness, that took forever to properly extract - Never again. . .

EHall, a few 1" cracks around the vents and, no, I dont want to pull it . . .

I'd take it if the body was complete. Ah, I have too many cars anyway.

Just curious, how does one move/tow a car that doesn't have a suspension? I mean I see how they use forklifts at pick-n-pull but that's not really street legal.

someone could use the torque tube as a primer for core/rebuilt exchanges, so the person wanting a rebuilt tube could simply order it, receive it and send his old core back for refund and only be off the road for a few hours instead of an eternity...


or a local shop could always have a tube ready to go in the same way, with the car on the lift just a couple of hours.

Clearly you've never replaced a torque tube.

Matt, if either of those headlight trim rings is undamaged, I'd like one, actually just the smaller or upper segment of mine is broken ( broken mounting ears ), so I could just take that or damage to the larger section would be ok... thanks, Donn

Honestly, I think you should part the carcass further.

If you weren't so far away, i'd probably take it. I've been toying with the idea of retubbing my 951 with a 968 chassis.

No headlight surrounds, both were cracked.

Honestly, I could part it further, but I've had my fun. Someone could make money still. This is the first Stuttgart Porsche I have ever parted and it was a great experience.

Arash: I'm surprised by your lack of ingenuity. . . not within your character at all!

If someone would like a front bumper cover and fenders to complete this, here is a local offering.

I can tell you exactly what he paid for the white pieces he has

Matt, I swear not 5 minutes after my post, I was searching on craigslist, and lo, there is actually a listing with the body parts I'd need!

I even considered saying "F it" and buying carbon fiber fenders and hood....
