This 1981 Porsche 911 (VIN WP0AA0913BS120539) has been stripped, restored and backdated starting from what is described as a rust and accident-free donor car. Built to what looks like an extremely nice standard throughout, the car runs a built 3.0L with 40 IDA Webers as well as upgraded suspension and more detailed in the ad. Find it here on eBay in Lemon Grove, California for $64,900. Special thanks to BaT reader Jamie W. for this submission.

The car was just recently won by a bidder who ultimately informed the seller they couldn’t complete the transaction, but not before they requested a few cosmetic changes using parts that are included in the sale. Though shown here in it prior setup with gold 15″ replica Fuchs and matching graphics, it’s since been fitted with polished, authetnic Fuchs an inch larger in diameter. Other changes included fitment of an RS ducktail and matching black RS style graphics. We prefer it as shown here, but the ducktail would look good regardless of which direction the new owner chooses.

The interior looks great and has been refinished to standards matching the rest of the build. The old Becker Europa is a nice touch, but is simply fitted in place of a radio blanking plate and is not hooked up. Similarly, A/C, heat and defrost have all been ditched in the name of weight savings–fully corner balanced, it’s said to tip the scales at just under 2,200 pounds.

Here’s the great looking three liter. The seller says that almost every nut, bolt and washed used in construction has been plated with fresh yellow zinc, further siting all new powder coating on engine components and the surrounding bay. Fitted with performance cams, it’s said to run strong with between 3%-5% leakdown on all cylinders. and should really scream through all six barrels.

Used very minimally since completion, this one’s far from cheap but we’re always struck by the relative affordability of nice, non-original builds like this. It won’t ever match up nicely with a PCOA or win any concours, but should still be a blast to own and drive.
