porsche 962 "barn find" thread...

[LaurasOtherHalf]

shamelessly pinched from life saab itch's thread in the motorsport forum, i'm sure plenty of you in here will be interested.

i actually have the porscghe motoersport victory poster of this chassis so it's nice to read of it being found (maybe not so nice for the guy with the other chassis mind you).

What a great read!

To think that people on here are worried about rev range data and getting cars inspected, this really puts things into perspective.

Thanks for posting!

What a great story - wonder what he paid?

I'm guessing it was still a significant amount i.e. $100's of thousands? Nice to see it saved!

Edited for wrong emoticon!

I guessed at about US$250K!

I'd have said that wouldn't be bad...

I guess most of the value is in the chassis (which is what they seem to believe), so even if they rebuild it with a modern ECU etc, there is probably some money to be made there...

I'd still love a 962 in my living room... One day!
