Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

this is an interesting one.
a 76 930 that has been 959'd (ish). Current owner has been methodically turning it back to stock, but run out of funds and needs to sell.
confirmed 76 turbo engine, but owner thinks its none matching - looking more into this as often numbers didn't match
rear guards replaced with originals from Germany
76 datestamped fuchs sourced
whale tail sourced
engine rebuilt - not yet run
prepped and ready for paint
what to do....
What's your guess ? $80-$100k in work and parts to finish, plus import and GST? I assume all the interior is gone, full electrics, hydraulics, brakes etc needed?
art the right price it would be a nice project
I am waiting on a full list of what is missing and a quote to finish it off. He has most things and To finish paint is already quoted at $10k. Buy price is good so GST wouldn't be a worry and wouldn't attract LCT
LCT calculated on what you bought it for (or what you get the seller to put on the bill of sale)
Still a dodgy LHD import so basically worthless anyway
Hang on ... weren't we only bandying the said same word about earlier today ... I thought desire more apt.
With LCT so I'm. clear , only levied on base purchase price , not total cost, post 'improvements ' hmmm
only levied on what is says on the purchase document. I only buy dodgy LHD cars of course and have completed my Symsy home schooled course in being the perfect negotiator but imports to date include a homeless guys 930 for $120k and a minty 912 for $30k. Mind you the 912 will be non-matching numbers soon so I might have to revisit the paperwork ?
LCT only kicks in if its over $69,094.00. Also, be careful - if you get work done on it before you bring it in that means the buy price is say 40K and you spend another 160, you'll cop LCT on the $130,006.00.
I've advised a couple of clients who've been caught by this.
The ATO web site is helpful.
Tom, JFDI.
Worst comes to the worst you can punt it off in the US. Happy to send you the details of our friend in Monterey who may be able to store / paint / build it if required. I'll even drive it to the next Luft for you alongside the 912 ?
Would be interested to know what you lot would pay for the above.
More info on finishing:
1. $15k to finish paint
2. $30k to assemble
still waiting on missing parts list
update on 912 project on build thread finally
$30k to assemble? Jeeez, I want their hourly rate!
When all the bits are there and ready to go, it shouldn't take longer than 2 full weeks for an experienced shop to build a car mate. $100/hr @ 80 to 100 hours or ya getting stiffed
Also 15k to finish paint? That seems crazy to me also.
I have a painter mate that does show/concourse quality paint jobs on old Mustangs and they are just scratching 10k. He goes to town on them and they are perfect in every way.
Decided to pass, but for anyone that wants to finish it off in their shed the car as it stands is going for $50kUS
It is a non matching car, but the previous owner sourced an original 76 engine (I have the numbers).
engine has been completely rebuilt, just not full essembled and run in yet.
there is a list of missing parts but current shop in Chicago reckons they can source everything needed.
Costs to get a completely finished car:
purchase $50kUS
parts $10-$15k
finish paint $15k
labour $30k - this would include finishing off the engine, rebuilding gearbox/clutch, installing new wiring loom, install interior windows, rubbers etc. essentially finish of the car.
All up $110kUS ($145k OZ)
with the original purchase price of $50kUS you could escape LCT but would be up for shipping, insurance , gst and compliance.
All up you might be about to land this car finished in OZ and drivable for around $180kOZ
I've been following the bloke's for sale posts. I'm sooooooooooooo keen for an early 930. This also has the added benefit of starting life as a 959 replica, which everyone knows, I have a soft spot for! Did you check the numbers with your Porsche guy? Confirmed non-matching? Any chance you can PM me the numbers?
$180k is a fair chunk of money but would be nice to see it saved and go to a good home ,,,was the car originally black or another color ...just asking as I know that the early Turbo,s came is some very unique colors that you don,t see that often ..
chassis - 9306700661
engine - 6760063
as far as i know black

Michael recons he knows of a few around OZ, but $180k all done and sorted. Matching numbers aside I am not sure it you could get a much better deal
Just pay airfares and pizza money to the dudes who do the hobo's cars. They can sleep on the floor for free for the coupla weeks it should take..
Circumvent the border police.
