Wouldnt pay that for a decent one. Quite a car in their day, but nothing to write home about by todays standards.

It's got such a high reserve(more than the current £6600 bid) because he's got to buy some more exclamation marks!!!!!!!!!! Changing the colour of your text every few words isn't cheap either....
Posting a photo of a Cosworth Sierra, just because it's randomly mentioned in the fantasy, was a nice touch too

I actually tried to buy a Black 911T in 1979. It had a few rust bubbles and the bloke was asking £2,750 for it.
As I was a teenager he wouldnt take me seriously, and assumed I was just a tyre kicking dreamer. Wouldnt give me the time of day.
A fortnight later I went back to see him in my newly purchased Chevette HS. It took him a long time to pick his jaw up off the floor.  ::)

No different to how a stretch limo or hearse is built.
Any competent bodyshop should be able to do it too.
It's the same cut&shut work that has long been frowned upon when done badly or for nefarious reasons
