356 speedster project for sale

Post by tangerineT »

Not mine and I'm not associated with this but wondered if this could be a genuine "lost" speedster

You might as well just ask them to post the vin and save the cost of moving the rest of the body

Nice scam advert... Seller with zero feedback, not a single detail of the car. You don't post three useless photos on eBay, especially of a 'barn find' Speedster and casually say 'more information later'.

That was my first thought when I saw the “0” feedback.
Not so sure though tbh.
It’s all a bit amateurish and certainly the UK scams usually involve only the one photo, accompanied by a screenshot with a “buy it now” price and an email address.
I know a lad who very nearly got taken to town over a Bay Window Camper that he was assured would “be delivered to his door once he’d paid”..

Lusting after a 30/98, will settle for a 23/60.

Doubtless a more tech savvy person could post a link?
It appears as though (unusually) this wasn’t a scam as there is now a write up on the Porsche 356 Facebook (Horrible Place!) page about its subsequent purchase and recovery!
