Like I mentioned, the demand is there. On consignment she doesn't get as much as she could get but then she doesn't have the headaches of selling. If a reasonable price is asked there is no reason the car shouldn't sell. There are also buyers/resellers that would buy it outright but again at the lower end of the purchase price. The prices mentioned seem on the high side, like 930 money. I' have had a couple of opportunities of late to purchase estate 911's at relatively reasonable prices under 50k. As I mentioned to the presenters I have enough toys as it is and am unwilling to take on any new projects, even just to flip them. (I hate doing sales). A local Porsche repair shop mechanic might provide some good insight and leads as to the local market. They also have the ear of their clients who ask them "If you hear of someone selling a (insert model here) let me know." A reputable consigner will move the car with no need to lose any sleep over the sale. She could have the car appraised if that would make her more comfortable but be prepared to accept considerably less than appraisal if it is to move quickly. It's all money in the bank. http://www.gullwingmotor.com/Page/Sel ... Classic-Porsche-911S.aspx https://classiccars.com/listings/find/1973/porsche/911 |
