Rare Sport Bikes For Sale

1992 Kawasaki KR250C3 KR1-S still in the crate!

This post has generated the most comments ever on a single post on my website. The seller is quote eccentric in his presentation and demands of the potential bidders. It’s a very rare opportunity to own a new 1992 KR1-S for sure!

1970 Porsche 911T For Sale on the Cheap!

It’s true, there’s almost as much to be skeptical of as there is to be excited about. But the fact remains, it’s a 1970 Porsche 911T with a buy-it-now for only $8500 (MD):

1970 Porsche 911T

It was initially an Oregon car that was converted to 1977 style, ”short nose” from a “long nose”. The conversion was done correctly.

Pluses:

•Rust free on exterior and suspension points
•Rare factory Sunroof
•Power windows
•SC flares
•Front chin spoiler
•H4 headlights
•The gauges are from the 1970 911T, all are number type gauges for oil pressure & temperature
•Comes with a CD ignition box
•17 inch ARE (BBS look alike) wheels – 7s & 8s with fairly new Kumho tires
•Black head liner
•1977 interior style door panels
•1977 2.7 liter CIS engine with 54K miles on the motor
•901 transmission with A, F, M, S, X gearing

Minuses:

•Paint is fair, good from 25 feet, there are many layers of paint on this car
•Radio is lousy
•1970 struts with new shocks and 1970 brake calipers
•Windshield has a small semi-circular crack that will not grow any larger
•The oil level gauge and clock do not work
•The dash is a “dash cover” type

Lots of mods, not original, not matching numbers, layers of paint… But relatively low miles for the year, PNW car (mostly rust free I expect) and only 54k miles on the motor makes me think this sub $10k car is worth a look regardless of the red flags.
