So, I have lived about a quarter mile away from a 74 911T for 5 years and never knew it. It has a 2.7 in it and CIS. The car is a lost cause, but complete with engine trans. It has sat for a few years outside but the engine still turns over. Really all I'm after is the engine in it if it is a good buy. It does have a nice set of Fuchs on it...
What are all of your thoughts of its worth? I will most likely buy the whole car and sell everything minus the engine. |

When I did my conversion, I used a rusted 75 Targa for a donor. I'd be sure to keep the engine, transmission, half shafts, front struts (or entire front suspension system). I'd also keep the shift mechanism, pedal cluster, and all the gauges. Depending how involved you want to get into the conversion, you may need more of these than you might think. Even the rear hubs may be helpful if/when you go to a five-lug wheel conversion.
When you're done with your conversion, you can always sell the extra parts on eBay or on the classifieds here or on the Birdboards! |
