Can someone please direct me to that $300k Speedster that recently sold. I wanted to look at the unusual badgesit had. I can't find it again!

Thanks!

This one sold for $300K, I don't see any special badges though.

Thanks---I couldn't relocate that post.

Well there are two badges I have never seen and they were visible when the driver's side door was open--attached to the rear of the fender that the door jamb goes against. I believe one was for the body number and the other was the engine number.

The one at the top said:

REUTTER

Krosserie

NR________

Right below that badge was one that said:

Kunstharaziazk

Fabren # ______

Anyone notice those badges?

$300,000 I don't get it. $120,000 then put another $100,000 to make it perfect---I couldn't do this but at least I understand it. But $300 large and leave it as is ---just new fuel lines, etc just wow.

Jack,

Those are the body number and paint tag located inside the driver's side A pillar. Common for 356 and early 911/912 (maybe others)

You can find repos at most of the major catalogs.

And in fifteen to twenty years, it will be worth much less. That's quite a gamble to spend that much on that car.
