Driver walked away without a scratch, he hit some black ice.

 

How would a cab fair out in a flip? I don't they have roll bars do they?

 

The header over the windshield is supposed to be reinforced, but it didn't hold up well on this car-thankfully there wasn't a passenger, and the driver walked away.

 

T-bone!!!!

 

That will buff right out.

Hope everyone is ok!

 

Yes, no injuries, I was driving the car around on Friday, boy was I getting looks

The cab still tracks straight, and the roller is for sale. What really sucks is this car had a very high end sound system, the guy who was hired to remove it, said he couldn't get the head unit out as it was wedged, yet when I pulled the console, the head unit came right out, and there is no damage to the console, but the head unit went from a very high end to a $50 unit, plus he said he auctioned everything else off after 30 days, some one is going to get a visit from Jonny Law!!!

 

Are you parting it out? If so, there are a couple things I'm interested in

 

First, I am glad to hear that you are all right.
Second, sorry to hear about your misfortune. These thing happen, that is why they are called "accidents" and it is sad to have a sweet vehicle that you put so much into get racked up.
Let us know if you are going to part it out, it may be a little soon to make that call just now.

that hurts to look at, ouch.
Verry sad, but nice to know that the 968 is pretty crash worthy. It held up nicely in what appears to be a substantial impact to protect the passenger compartment. If you had been driving a tin can it could have been worse.

 

Not parting, want to sell the roller, I have other plans for the running gear

Why not just buy the roller??

 

By running gear I am guessing that you don't mean a pair of addidas jogging shoes in the trunk. What about the rest?

 

I have a new home for the engine (& the wiring that goes with it) & tranny The body, top(new), susp (Konis adj), int (was new) and the 17" wheels (that were about to get powder coated, the reason there aren't on the car, but not now) are for sale as a roller.

 

No need, I'm only going to 2.6L for GT3S classing, and I'm picking up my 944S 16v engine friday that's being sleeved and dry sumped, etc. And I've already got a 968 6 speed

The only thing I want is the gauge cluster!

 

I have been on the look out for a 968 rear end to do a six speed upgrade to my 924S. The project (from what little I know of it) would require the six speed, which you are keeping. Oh well, I guess I stick with the 5 speed, bad 2nd snchro and all.

 

Please do tell.

 

Well, my 924S already has a stronger engine (cammed, headers & chip) and the tranny was used in a car raced in the 2000 Rolex 24 (4 really low, 5th really tall) and since I already have the turbo "S" brakes & susp in it, I'm thinking about selling the running gear out of my 924S and sticking the freshened up 968 stuff in there Or I could just drop it all in my caged 88 944 Turbo "S" chassis
