I looked @ 9 Porsches in a backyard yesterday. All for sale!!!
Most have been sitting in very dry climate for 15+ years.
The list:
62ish 356 Super 90
77 911 Targa- original owner w/invoice, 20,000 miles
914-6 Love this car
914 1.7
914 1.7
914 1.8
914 1.8
914 2.0
914 2.0
OH yeah there is a complete STERLING kit car. Odd but cool.
Will be making offers on 356,911, and 914-6. Sure hope I have enough coin. I know pics or it didn't happen. Will have few pics later today.

Awesome find! Let's see more pics of the 911 and 356. Who cares about the 914's. ;D

I could give a rat fuck about the 914's also. BUT the 914-6 is a special car. Didn't get too many pics as it was a cold mother out. Will be back there in a couple of days to make offers. They are not on the open market so no competition yet.
The 356 is very good starting point for complete resto. A little rust in rear wheel well area. A little in the pans. The worst of it you cant see in pics. It had been repaired at haedlight areas and hood from running into something and the something went right over the top of the bumper.
Some bondo in those areas. Virtuallly complete and runner when parked many moons ago. Appears that the original color(at least on dash) is a metallic charcoal grey?
The 911 targa is one owner all paperwork, 20,000 miles, interior is great. ZERO RUST OR DENTS. Silver is oxidizing. Ran when parked 12 years ago. A few weekends flushing and lubing and it would run. Cant see anything wrong with it.
Picked up a 3 guage 66 912 with No rust a couple weeks back. Already got it torn apart. It hasn't run in 12 years also. When it rains it pours.

I have known about the nine for about five years. Found them when I was paving the street in this small town. 911 in front yard. Drove down alley and bam there they were. Everytime I was in town I would stop. Finally it worked.I just approached the old fella and started talking. There are not many Porsches in this area. We are hillbillies around here. The 912 was on craigslist.

I am suspect of the alleged '62 S90. That badging never came with that car from the factory.

That's super cool then, the wait makes the buy that much sweeter. Hope you get a good deal on it.

I honestly dont know exact year on 356. I pretty sure it is a B. That is why I said 62ISH as I dont know for sure. The old fella wasn't sure either.
He is well into his eighties, so not to remember is to be expected.Anyone tell the year? If it was a bus I could tell you years.

I guess what I meant to say is: that badging never came with ANY car from the factory.

Who gives a patootie about details, it's a complete 356 that he's going to probably get a deal on! Report back when you get it!

Heres the 912 pedals. I had to rebuild them. Used oiled bronze instead of the plastic bushings.

The S emblem is not connected to the SUPER 90 emblem. I am guessing the S is an add on. Owner says it is real.
What emlem should be on the rear if it is a real super?
What is the tach difference?

Good job on the 912 cluster, I just rebuilt my '68 911's cluster a few months back with the same bronze bushings. That roll pin is fun to get out isn't it? Very Happy

Cuz it makes a difference.... a Super 90 is more valuable than a Super. Would you say the same if it was a Carrera?
