What do you think this is really worth?
This guy says he took a 1976 Porsche chassis, added a 993 body kit and dropped in a Corvette engine ... His "buy it now" price is $37k ... and he says it appraised for $60k ... seems like a Frankenstein to me ...
I like the color ...
Here is the link to the Ebay ad:

Look, I did a bunch of slope and widebody conversions from the late '80s to early '90s. No, none with non-Porsche engines. Nothing is lost by hacking up an old 2.7L torsion bar chassis. This thing could be just fine on fit and finish. But I'll state with nearly 100% certainty the finished product is a whole lot less than the sum of its parts. Bottom line is that there's nearly zero value in the finished product. If someone does buy it for north of $30K, best of luck.

Why on earth would anyone buy a clone for $37K that's worth less than half that, when, for $37K you could buy the real deal?...and, in all probability, it would be worth what you paid!

To each their own. It does look good, & I bet it's fast, but the interior is not my taste, & yea, about $20k to much.
For that coin, get the real deal!!

Trying to come off too much as a no it all for me. State the facts, and dont oversell. Ex- When he states he had to modify the suspension because the V-8 is lighter than a Porsche 6, the car sat too high. Freaking torsion bars are infinitely adjustable.
"2000 viewers & 41 watchers last week"- sure, everyone wants to know if someone will actually fork over money for this car, as much as it may be nicely done.
