nice find......do not weld in restoration design floors in that poor thing,they do not have correct pressing/profiles and you or someone else will regret it later,the danish floors are the most correct pressings for a car like this

I agree with the statement above but for the cost I am not really that bothered about a tiny detail like that. the difference is very small between the two..

Anyway the car.. I have to say if your the only person in the race then your doing well. !st make sure he owns the dam thing before you part with cash..

second I agree with the others you can't go wrong to be honest. For the money I would start at $15k and work up $20k is the right price at best for it but $15k is more like the real price. Its a good enough starting point and you will always get your money back, if you got stuck so your in the right starting place just $15k is a lot for normal people like you and me to put up for a project before you even buy a panel but a 53 is always going to be a good car to own..

By the way he is interested in selling the Fiat( datsun, i forget but I know the car I saw them in LA and thought I like that... 70's thing ) behind the convertable one looks burgandy under all the dust..

PostPosted: Sat Mar 20, 2010 7:33 pm    Post subject: I bought the red one listed above and PS it is Vin 50064 Reply with quote

arrived on new years eve. These two cars have a race history. Restored worth over $200,000 easy. Did someone buy 50065? Be careful most of these chat rooms are crab pots for vendors. everybody thinks they have a friend in car sales. what that really means is that the guy who sells them cars is so good at the b.s. they think they got a good deal when what the got was the big screw. Car guys are great but many in the porsche world are not. 50064 has had $90,000 put into it including purchase of $21,500. Shipping $1,250, Engine restore $17,000. 16 inch wheels, turbo rims, nuts, other misc stuff $20,000 and then the labor today $35,000 with about $70,000 more to go and two more years at least. This is not for the faint of heart but to me worth it. would like to know who bought 50065. I may have many race photo's of your car. [email protected]

Cool car! What's the history on it? Would love to see more photos.

I have a silver '53 coupe too.

I know it's a numbers matching engine, 1500 motor, but short of that I'm just starting to get the information collected. It was last tagged in 1989

Cool! If you have any questions, post away. '53 coupes are my specialty, mostly because I'm restoring mine right now.
