Sold

I guess the question is, is it accurately described as a "genuine factory 911S"? The essential ingredient of any early 911S, is the motor and ancillaries. This one has lost that, and a modern motor and many extras inserted. I know that the price reflects this process, but the description doesn't sit well with me.

It seems to be "a race-modified, 70's 911 shell with mechanical updates"

I know too harsh ....

No Merv

Not harsh enough

It has been sold, the motors whereabouts are known, a member here owns it but does not own the car.

All sorts of back room deals were being attempted to re unite the 2 but hasn't happened yet but the game is not yet over.

You clyde?!?

Clyde, that sounds like a good ending is possible with a re-uniting of the body and its essential original mechanical components. These cars are too valuable not to try.

Nope not me I thought about it but bought the Duttons blue E and re united it with its original engine instead

Not an S but a whole lot easier project

The new owner of the red car is working on getting the correct engine.
