Looks like Gas Monkey are selling off some of their stock, incl. this 69S. Plenty of pics...

Woh! I think it needs a lot of work too. I'll be seeing Richard at Knebworth next weekend, so I'll ask him what the deal is....

Looks fundamentally solid and complete to me... early 911S project cars are like air-cooled rocking horse poop at the moment. But $85k for a project car - I CAN see how it will stack up financially as a project given the prices they fetch when done.

Doesn't have its original '69S engine.
Looks like a bottomless money pit to me ...

When you say money pit... if you were to say £60k I wouldn't disagree. Old S models in mint condition seem to go for £125+ so it does stack up as a project car. I didn't realise the engine was non-original though - that's a bit of a fly in the ointment.

Look at the rot in it. You’d spend way over £50k on that car. If you did it properly using well known specialists £80k would soon disappear.

That just makes it more lightweight.

Hot rods look great value at the moment. Looks like everyone wants a Porsche and no one wants a rod.
