Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

34 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Like it says I am looking for a race car project the uglier the better miles do not matter.. I am just looking for cheap!!!! has to be a coupe and 2 wheel drive. Prefer 3.4, but would consider 3.6

POST 2Original post

I imagine that many were damaged in the northeast from Hurricane Sandy flooding... Check some salvage auction houses.

POST 4Original post

Quotes source post: 10056769

was resisting - but now that you mention it I think posting a price range will give people an idea of "how ugly" you really mean

POST 5Original post

I bought mine for $5000 but the body is is very good shape even though it has 200K miles. The engine easn't running.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had an opportunity 8 months ago to buy a 160k with ugly paint for 5k, actually ran good.. Now that I am ready where are they!!

POST 7Original post

This one may be too ugly. Its in the PCA Maverick region classifieds if you are interested. 1999 911 (996) 59,xxx miles. Absolutely hammered flat beyond belief in hail storm. Mechanicals, wheels, tires good, might need the “jaws of life” to see the interior. Color moot because front and rear glass gone, most body panels are done, some assorted exterior pieces might be salvaged. Photos available via email. Suitable for some sort of conversion to club racer or demo derby vehicle. Asking $10,500 but willing to negotiate but… no poultry

POST 8Original post

No resonable offer refused! I guess you want a pic

It's a shame what happened to that sewing machine.

POST 13Original post

POST 15Original post

Quotes source post: 10058211

you seem to know an awful lot about turds

POST 17Original post

as long as you are not "scratching through the brown, looking for the gold" I suppose it's all good OK - subject change time!

POST 20Original post

www.copart.com is a good salvage auction site. They have a fair amount of 996s on there - seemingly nice GT2 Sandy flood victim right now. Quick 996 search result: http://www.copart.com/c2/homeSearch....ageRange=99999

POST 25 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

found one 8 months ago for 5k, 160k miles, ugly paint but ran good.. He sold to a friend of his, so I lost out.. sort of what I am looking for, sub 10k

27 hours and no comments? Guess everyone's just sitting on the fence....

POST 29Original post

It's more like sitting on the fiscal cliff...

POST 32 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I didn't think a comment was needed, I would of thought there would be several rough sub 10k cars out there when I see descent sub 15k cars... Just looking for one that runs good but has torn seats, bad paint and bad title OK

POST 33Original post

Seriously, the front end(body shell) and other misc. doors and pieces off of this car ARE still available. Engine/trans/rear clip are all gone. The plus side of this is that it was a C4 coupe so the fuel area/trunk compartment is the same as a Cup car to fit the larger fuel tank for someone looking to do that. I would be willing to work an awesome deal on it if someone is interested in it. PM or email me. I do also have other misc seats and interior parts from other 996's and 986's that we have turned into race cars over the years. Thanks,

POST 34 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Would consider an already built race car. Prefer a 3.4. Have seen a couple, but sellers trying to get gt3 or cup car money..
