California-Made 70s Oddball: The Aerocon Boa
This is one of several fiberglass-bodied, kit-type cars sold without engine or trans and designed to accept Porsche or VW goodies. This one’s special, though, as the fiberglass body sits on an aluminum monocoque. That is only now becoming more common, thanks to Jaguar, Audi and a few others; but it was seriously exotic stuff…

Incomplete 944 Shooting Brake Project
All the best ads involve “purchased the donor car, and started cutting.” This has the potential to be awesome when complete, but there’s a long way to go. The seller apparently started this project in April 2015. It’s not clear what the donor wagon was, but maybe a reader knows? Regardless, our condolences go out…

Brown, manual 928 with Pasha Interior
Does it get any better? This is a Euro-spec car with low miles and supposedly has had a recent service. If it checks out it’s a helluva car; but is the price reasonable? Click for Craigslist ad Indianapolis, IN, USA $12,500 Brown truly is beautiful. Early 928s wear their weirdness with more pride vs. later…

359: The Porsche that Never Was
The seller is this oddity says it’s a rare Porsche 359. Considering that’s not a Porsche, that means this is some sort of kit car – in this case with some Speedster and some 959 styling cues. We assume this is based on a VW, as the seller says it’s a 1971 model and it…

One-Off (?) Porsche 928 Spyder
Apparently, someone made a race car out of a 928 and someone else tried to make a production car based on its general design. That’s where spyderwerks comes in, but it’s not clear how many of these might have actually been built nor exactly when this came to be. The end result of whatever happened…

Chopped 924 Turbo
Usually, we here the term chopped in relation to old school hot rods or perhaps mini trucks; but today’s feature is a chopped and “overly body kitted” 1979 Porsche 924 Turbo. The seller recently spent about $2,700 on leakdown and compression tests, plus some rewiring to get this running. We suspect that may prove to…

Blasphemy or Interesting? Rodded Porsche 928
Porsche purists have long struggled with the 928, as it was once planned to be the replacement for the 911. Obviously, that didn’t work out, but it seems to have threatened many an old-school 911, based on mockery of this car’s front-mounted, vee configuration, water-cooled engine. Things have started to turn around a bit the…

East Oakland Style 911T
Today’s feature is a project 1971 911T for only $13K. If you know recent 911 prices, you know this is low. Well, suffice it to say that the modifications and condition support the low price. I’m not sure what East Oakland Style is, but the seller claims this is it. I see an odd, custom…
