I got a pretty strong distaste for "nice" expensive things. Buying a new Porsche is fucking duuuumb. But I also have a strong love for cheap old crap, and cheap old crappy versions of nice things, that's a score.
anyway I for sure wouldn't part it out, cuz then you wind up stuck with whatever shit is left. personally i'd just sell it whole for a pretty comeup, have a fun story about how you owned a Porsche, and you don't actually have a Porsche you gotta worry about or spend time and money on.
lol, i miss this show
If you can find a running engine swap it in, if not with the condition of the body and the aforementioned wheels, (lucky bastard) ;) you could sell that car for at least double what you paid, lots of people out there with more money than sense.
listed for $1900 on fb marketplace

Eh, you stand to make good profit who cares. Besides, you dont want to list it forsale and deal with tire kickers for 6 months.

Bump, sold friday for 1800. Not a bad comeup
no muss, no fuss, and tripled your dough
nice job
That was a great deal! And one headache gone!
944 spec class is poppin off now. Man that paint is too clean for only$600! Great buy home skillet!
Nice, hope u can turn it over. I crashed one exactly like it back in 2000. Itβs a fun ride!
The main thing with these things is the previous owners if they followed the maintenance schedule and replace the timing belt when they should nothing would went to shit but on the plus side they do have piston inserts or rather sleeves end the number 2 piston is the first to go once the timing slips I know somebody that had one...

When I was 19 I scored a 1980 280zx for $100. It needed a $45 starter and ran and ran. Straight 6 Datsun/Nissan, I got like 25 tickets in it over a couple years then sold it for $280. Ha

haha trust me it's my fall back... if i ever quit or get canned. take a $30k personal loan and go HAM on flipping.
mostly motorcycles. mopeds dont bring that much resale as you all are aware, but i'll still do mopeds for the fun of it and to save them from getting crushed. usually just give them to friends to try to get them into it haha but occationally $100-$200 profit after fixing them bc they never run.
motorcycles are anywhere from 400- $1500 +/-
cars all depends on what i have. did a Chaste White '94 FD rx7 last year i scooped for $10k - got told im an idiot for buying a non running fd by my dad, put a few hours into it and maybe $300 or so if that? sold it for $20k about 2 months later.
did a red FD earlier this year i got for $16k and ended up selling to a buddy for 19k. "friend price" aha
i LOVE doing it, i'd do it for free anyway in my spare time as a Hobby, but the fact i can make money doing it is even better
thread takeover of flips....
$200 '88 300zx (non turbo :( ) i picked up 2 weeks ago
$1200 '87 E30 i scooped over the weekend
and a $200 '93 3800mile ninja 500 with a full exhaust and upjet that was layed down 14 years ago and sitting in the dudes climate controlled garage since (no pic :( )
ninja and 300 are flips. i think im gonna daily the E30 through winter... it uh, "seals up" a little better then my samurai lol
my '91 2wd s10 5spd iron duke is for sale too if anyone is looking for a sub $2k beater truck
Love the truck!
Scores of scores right there.

Once you start driving the e30 you wonβt want to get rid of it...too much fun to drive, get the revs up there, youβll love it! I have an β89 325is with a stick and it will stay in my garage for a long time.

You can put there the engine of VW van model LT. It's the same engine.
