Porsche 356

Haha they are so beautiful! I know its alot of money but if you do it properly its like buying a house and restoring it, it cant really drop in value .... unless you do a really bad job

 

Think ive just had a little accident ...

 

They can drop in value and classic cars often do, it’s absolutely not a guarantee you will get your money back never mind turn a profit, budget £60-90k for the resto. I know a guy who used to restore cars used to make £50k every time, the market dropped, he had a half done car with £50k invested, he couldn’t get £5k, it sat in his workshop for years and years

 

All about keeping an eye on the market aswell i wouldnt put 5k into a car that was only worth 3k, as i say it would be a long term thing, they rise and fall but will usually hold their money in the long term

 

Join the 356 lot on face book. Lots of info might be a bit biased
You could just buy this kit from the guys that run it

Went to a classic car show about 25 years ago & a guy had a real nice one..he had spent £150k on the resto. 25 years ago! Gulp.

 

I’m still waiting for Betty to by me my Porsche ,could be a long wait , she doesn’t do hints . Cousins selling his 928 not quite the same thou huh

 

100k would nt even get ye a proper one ,early 912 is a better way to go ,

 

912 prices have gone skyward massively tho as well over the last few years ... it’s the availability and cost of parts that is the killer ... I think because the massive rise in 911 prices it’s dragging all the Porsche marks up with it ..
I’d say its cheaper to drop 100k+ on a 356 than it would be to proper restore one .

 

Your cus needs to keep his 928 Barn, prices on the rise

 

This ^ deffinately

 

Couldnt give a 928 away 7-10 years ago now they're commanding 15k -25k for a decent example silly money really but only way that market is going is down!

 

Do you wanna buy it is guards red n mint , he want to buy a staff car he’s gone all military ?

 

One of the cars I always wanted. A mates bought one and gave it to a 'porsche specialist' to restore. He just goes a pale colour when I ask him how it's going

 

So that’s a yes then , send me the money n I’ll drive it up in the week

 

My mate in Nigeria just needs your bank details Barn.
He will transfer funds when you drop it off

 

No it’s not a scammel

 

Barn, I would have to sell something, maybe a kidney

 

You have two , do you want a price , I’ll ring him ?
