I BOUGHT A DESTROYED PORSCHE 997 TURBO

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

What a mess! My biggest project yet, a 997 911 Turbo. Can this crashed race car become a street-able reliable daily driver again? Or is it too far gone to save?

Although he probably wasn't the owner, it is somewhat surprising he or Andrew didn't do the repairs and sell for the owner. Hopefully that doesn't mean there is more damage than it looks. Good luck with the repair. I'm subscribed!

    Wow, this will make for some great content and more vicarious living for me. My first take would be to make it a track capable street machine and maximize selling off the extra parts to recoup costs. For example, keeping the track seats and selling the hardback sports, etc. IOW, just get it running, street legal and presentable but not to the level of your 996tt. Minimize the the gap between what you spend and what it will be worth.
