Default 991 Cup Parting Out

Due to an unfortunate incident, my 991 Cup will require a new tub. The car is damaged very lightly in the driver's rear corner with a kink in the frame rail rendering it un-repairable. I have elected to strip the car and sell off the parts to recoup some of my investment. The only parts that are not available because of damage appear to be rear bumper, exhaust, one upright is scuffed, rear shock bent and some suspension components on driver's side may also be bent. The car is otherwise in perfect condition and was drive-able after the incident. I will begin to list parts as soon as I get a more comprehensive list from the shop. Drive-train is in perfect working order. If you would like to reserve some parts let me know and PM me with offers. I am not going to Fire Sale the parts so please be reasonable with your offers. The car is equipped with BOSCH ABS as well as additional dampers. I had recently added Motec to piggyback with Cosworth for ease of data acquisition. Also has Digital radio, cool suit and elaborate drink bottle system. I will also accept offers for complete car. The VIN plate will also be for sale once car is stripped and tub is destroyed.

Would be interested in the front bumper, drls, headlights, side sills, and possibly doors. What year? Upgraded if '14? Megaline shifter? Thanks

Call me to discuss. All those are available and in perfect shape. Not sure what DRLS is. Car is a 13 but I have a megaline which I may keep from other car. Car was mostly upgraded to newer specs. cell number is 312 953 8616

Wow. Car does not look that bad. Is the frame that fragile? Or is it that the frame is aluminum and nearly impossible to straighten? Sorry for your loss....

Unfortunately i think a bit of both. I should have played the lottery that day. Could not have had a more direct hit. My son was driving at the time and a slight overcorrection caused a slide and backed into a concrete wall at 19mph. I was stunned to learn of damage to tub.

Will sell either way. Prefer complete as it will be less work for me. Have a couple interested buyers. Car is complete with extra dampers, Bosch ABS and spare wheels. Looking for $100k complete. Parted out I priced at $120k using 50% PMNA pricing. Vin plate I believe is worth $5000 to be able to order a tub for a shop that would like to keep a spare on hand. They go fast on race weekends. Several lost at WGI on IMSA weekend.
