$46K!!!!!!!!!!!!????????? I bet it is a POS. It is some used car salesman who is just happy to have a Porsche on the lot next to his Yugo and 280 ZX.

In the first part he says one of the previous owners painted it then he says he painted it. Sounds ridiculous but he does drop a bunch of names. None of them probably pan out.

He claims there are no pics because he doesn't know how to load them and he's waiting for his wife to do it. It's been listed 3 days and still no pics but there is one offer. Oh, and yes, he's a used car salesman.

Day 4, still no pics.
I think I have too much time on my hands. But now that I think about it, I should go out and vacuum the car for the ride this weekend.

Day 5 and we have pics! 7 of them. None of the present day car other than the rear trunk. So essentially it's a rear trunk for sale as well as a tool kit and some records.
1 pic is of 3 people standing next to a car. It looks like it was taken in the '70s and it can be seen in one of the other pics. The other 6 pics are of the rear trunk, the tool kit, and the records but nothing else.

Ok, he's added 5 small vague, not able to enlarge pictures to the listing. There've been 5 offers, all rejected. The pics look to be from when it was painted, either by him or one of the previous owners. He talks of the original steely wheels but the 5 new pics show a set of Fuchs. Could be there for the paint job but that would be unusual considering the value of 5 spoke Fuchs. Or maybe they're knock offs, who knows. Anyway, If it were real and I were trying to get 46K I think I would be placing the car on a televised auction block. Run away my friends, run away.
Oh, and stay tuned for an update at 11...
