I guess buyers are getting pretty desperate for an early car if they are willing to pay this amount for such a bastardised car with plenty of work left to get it back to original. doesnt even say what engine is in it.sigpicPhil Lack

If its indeed a real T/E, then its most probably a US delivered car. I have had 2 US delivered 911 T/E's, one being a 72 T/E. These all had MFI pumps which I believe were fitted by Porsche to comply with California emissions requirements at the time. So it may well be a conversion hidden underneath the 930 body.
However, if it listed with a 2/7 motor then its likely a K Jetronic car making it even less desirable. Pity the poor buyer if they go for this car hoping to convert back to a std 72.sigpicPhil Lack

I beleive the "E" part of the model designator is for Einspitzen being "Injection" as these cars needed an MFI pump to achieve emission requirements. They probably kept the "T" designator in the model name to differentiate them from the 911E model but still keep is as a "Touring" T model. AFAIK the T/E models were only for the USA and possibly just California ? Both of my T/E cars came from California.
