Don't understand. Was this car not insured?

What would this car be worth with those miles and without the damage?

All I can say is.... Another one saved. I don't even know where to begin. Send it to Porsche to fix the tub? At least $500k worth of damage

I would think the only other option to fix is Canepa? https://canepa.com/canepa-959/

Was the tub damaged? Maybe I missed that in the ad. For me the 959 was essentially the 'dream car' of my teenage years. Heather Locklear and the Porsche 959 was the two posters hanging on my wall through HS lol! I couldn't believe the numbers and technology that was in that thing back in the day. Amazing. Seems high priced yes, but in the end the value of one of these-with this low of mileage, is over the top! Salvage title or not! I hope the guy shares the journey of fixing this thing!

Off topic: I used to see Heather Locklear driving her brand new 993 C4S in Silver driving around Westlake Village, CA circa 1996. Oh baby! Hot car, hot chick!

Another OT, I thought she had a 993 Turbo? either that or was a C4S with turbo wing?

Btw, still has my 959 poster from college years!
