Anyone looking for a 1965 Porsche 356 Coupe? This one is rusted to perfection, but has some cool potential to be a real Burner. The front disk brake/suspension is there and mostly restored, the hard lines connecting the dual circuit calipers need to be replaced.
The engine, transaxle and rear brakes are gone, but I have a VW swing axle transaxle that fits just fine. The rear floor still needs to be raised a bit for clearance and a Bus nose cone and hockey stick needs to be placed on the trans to keep the shift rod in the tunnel, BUT there's nothing sexier on an Outlaw than a raised shift rod and shift stanchion with a short shifter attached ! !
The body is rusty and needs some attention all over, but I'd run it as-is flaunting the over-the-top patina like a milk moustache at an Oreo Eating Contest.
The floors and such are pretty good, but have been "reconditioned" with our good friend, fiberglass. Over-all it'll hold up just fine.
Lots of bits and pieces have been removed and reconditioned or replaced. The interior panels are good except for the rear, the seats are intact but need recovering and DO have the desired optional head rests, steering wheel is pretty sweet and includes the horn button, pedal assembly is restored and works great, has 914 gauges to replace the missing 356 gauges, no carpets, but lots of other stuff to put it all back together.
With the VW transaxle and a built VW engine, a rough and ready body and Outlaw attitude and accessories, this ought to be a PISSA ride for someone with the skills to carry it off. With a big built VW mill, it would make an ultimate sleeper
I even have the twin rear grills with a PCA badge attached. I'll throw in a new 356 outlaw badge as well.
Titled in my name, currently insured and registered. I'd like to get $5,000 but of course I'll take much less from you guys.
These are some pics of it before I pulled the engine/trans/axles/rear brakes for the seller. I took it apart to restore some of the parts, but this is essentially the car, just in pieces a little more than shown here.
