The number I hear is around $40,000 if you bring them the car although I may be off on that but for a similar build I'm sure it would be up there. That would likely not include other upgrades which I have done such as the aluminum radiators, brakes, suspension system etc.

I got a response from someone on another forum which was something along the lines of "If the dents only cost $300 to fix then why not just fix them?"

To which my basic response was this, it is a 20 year old car, DEAL WITH IT. ALL of the hard work has been done and to be quite honest if you are more worried about door dings on a car like this then you are missing the point and certainly don't deserve to have a car like this.

I definitely appreciate all of the encouragement from everyone here on the 986forums, you guys are a lot cooler then some other forums out there!

Oh and just because I'm selling this one does not mean that i'll be gone forever. I may just get myself a nice Boxster S as a daily driver, I think the cars are great... Although if I take on another project like this it will probably be a Cayman or more likely a 911... Turbo convertible

Only time will tell!

Thanks
