Guys, have you seen this ad??

if you have a 944 shell to bung all this running gear in(James you have a 944S with blown engine now?) it could provide a lot of fun.
It was £1500 origially when it got e-mailed to me but price seems to have gone up a bit now?

Yeah its a difficult one.
Just from the pics I didnt think it would be a cost effective fix as a complete car if it was on the insurance register, simply because 944s can cost a heck of a lot to fix probably, hence why I thought it might be good for parts for you guys.
If its a genuine low miler with full history & its not on the register then maybe that changes things but it still doesnt look like a cheap fix. (might make a cheap track beast tho- as long as it runs true why bother to fix it!)
Either way that interior has to go in the bin unless your name is Don Johnson![](http://www.pistonheads.com/include/images/biggrin.gif)

Funily enough clubsport I did look at a 968CS in far worse condition than that as a track toy, very very cheap, but a bit too messed up even for me.
Did think of a bid on this one but in truth as great & easily tunable as they are to 300+bhp, a 944T IMHO is not a great track toy if you have a tight budget, if it was an S2 & a bit cheaper tho I'd probably have already bought it!
Also & rather worryingly I do seem to have Caterhams on the brain at the mo...... must resist till I have a bigger budget or I'll be eating gruel for months....
