Default WTB--Dead 996

Looking for a 996 with a blown motor. Must be manual transmission, everything else is unimportant.

Ready to build a DE/track day car and why not start from the bottom up.

Feel free to PM me, or email at ddolmage (at) gmail.com

Thanks in advance guys!

I have a fairly decent list right now.. I generally keep the list for those who want to buy a dead car, then upgrade it our way :-)

I've looked for a while, found one possible car in CA, deal never materialized. Please do pass info along if you end up deciding against a car!

Motor needs work.

Good luck!

I'll check that one out, but 11k for 204k miles with a coolant milkshake seems high to me. It's worth seeing if he's willing to consider a more reasonable offer however.

Thanks guys, keep 'em coming, I know there's a car out there with my name on it. I missed out on that white one this morning by hours. Would have been perfect for me.
