    Well here is the barn find from Kentucky and paid $4500.00. It's a 1973 911T, has a 2.4L with 5-speed, RS body and very little cancer. The only skin cancer is at the bottom of rear window and a few spots along the quarter windows as well as a little a 2" x 3" spot on the front. Strut towers are perfect and the pans are solid but the interior is trashed. Makes it easier to gut out for the race interior.

    As straight as that car is I wouldn't put an STI drivetrain in it. Save that kind of stuff for 912 shells. A nice vintage Porsche deserves a vintage Porsche Sound.

    Talked to Tim about the car this morning and he was looking at making a IROC replica with this car.

    We've done a set of seats front and rear for the 70s 911, it was...not fun.
