Sold for $14,600.
Didn't see that coming.

What's that mid engine kit car looking thing in the thumbnails on the 
right, it looks like a Consulier.

Holy cow, it IS a Consulier.

911r (The Seller)

This is a great starting point for a restoration project and the most
affordable way to get into an E Type.


^ I'm sure that's what you believed when you paid $12k for it last fall.
But now that you know better, and have yourself given up on the idea of
restoring it, it smells like a lie.

This car is easy to work on:
Call tow company, order it moved to a Jag expert garage... Pay monthly
billing from the garage for the next 4 years while they sort it out...
Drive car for one weekend, call tow company to move it back to expert jag
garage... repeat above..
Are you having fun yet?

I had a neighbor who worked more or less continuously in his carport on a
similar E type coupe for about a decade.  He made progress but nowhere near
the point of making it roadworthy.
