i agree, and hope i didnt come across douche-baggy like. honest question. saw a guy driving a 356 SC this weekend down near Gardnerville.. while glad he's driving it , it just took me back to that ad and had me thinking how painfully expensive a rebuild would be.

The reason that mangled half-a-fan-shroud is $21.5K is because it's from JAMES DEAN's car, don't ya know?
How else could it have gotten so torn up?

Yes! I can sell all my original cases and fund at least one project. |

 THANK YOU for the laughs .
I recently gave away a complete engine fully dressed, it was built up then let sit in a garage for decades before I found it, it was stuck from sitting and had new early production Kadrons on it, if I thought anyone would want it I'da posted it here for $250 .
The heavily corroded case was the topper .

When posting an ad for a "Polished Dry Sump engine." It's really a good idea to post the best pictures that you can produce.
At an asking price of $5500, this ad clearly misses the mark.
