Similar to this one.
I have often thought about a 911, prefer the smaller size and look of the aircooled ones but the prices are beyond me. Probably prefer a Targa as well. Nice colour though.
Even this is beyond my current budget I think but the spec seems interesting. Worth the money?

Avoid on the basis of the seller. I have often thought about a 911, prefer the smaller size and look of the aircooled ones but the prices are beyond me. Probably prefer a Targa as well. Nice colour though.

Anyone fancy a project ?
Apparently 'won't take much to get going, fuel tank drain, cambelt and new battery...'

I suspect judging by the moss it will be like a stagnant swimming pool inside. Mechanical fuel injection doesn't like being left unused either.
All the rubber hoses could be perished as well as needing a coolant flush (water pump?). It’ll also need 4 new tyres purely on age, new brake fluid and maybe a clutch as well & that’s before any corrosion issues underneath (& we haven’t even got on to the paintwork condition ) I quite like this
Maybe not quite proper poverty but should be box fresh
Could still swallow 5 grand for fettling though
No sure whas going on with wonky and incorrect exhaust but could just be the tip I guess
£9000
35000 miles
2.7

My tiny mile 924 had been dry stored and then a had a big service before I bought it. I still ended up sinking quite a chunk in to it to get it running properly. And as said, the mechanical fuel injection hates sitting for long periods!Anyone fancy a project ?

Saw this and did get me thinking. Anyone fancy a project ?

I'd love an early, early 924 with none of the frills. Steel wheels, metal badges, single door mirror.
They will have their day!

Each to his own. My left knee gives me occasional discomfort thanks to a 2004 ‘head on’ collision, so the Tiptronic for me is great. However we have a T5 and a VW Golf that are both manual (no probs). I have had 3 Boxsters previously ...all manual & enjoyed them all so I understand the manual thing. Having owned a Tiptronic Porsche for 6 years I don’t understand why so many people are anti Tip.The 924 is interesting, as although the owner quite understandably thinks that £999 is dirt cheap, relative to what you can buy a good one for, I dont think its actually cheap enough. Its a parts car, really.
Regarding 924s - there has been a number of them through Collecting Cars in the past weeks and months which i've been keeping an eye on, and currently, my favourite yet - this absolutely lovely vision in Brown over Brown:
https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1980-porsche-9...
Colour, stance, wheels, tyres, condtion, all adds up for me on this one. Its a cracker.
Its at £4500, I reckon itll go for less than £10, which I think is a good buy based on what we can see. I've always fancied a 924S (like the Le Mans edition below) with the 2.5 but actually I bet the older Turbo is a hoot, at 170bhp in that light chassis it will go well, and presumably easily tuned/tweaked too.
Some others sold recently below - note the price on the red ones, hence my opinion of £999 being too much for the eBay potential rotbox!
