  • Abandoned Barn find Porsche SWB 911's

    Time and the eliments; in particular a very strong wind have literaly blown the lid off of the secret this old abandoned chicken coop was hiding. Two SWB 911's a coupe and a Targa. An SWB 912 (blue) and a very unmolsted 914.

    With tin roof blown-off and the wreckage scattered all over the ground (felt like the Roswell NM crash site)The very familiar shape of a 911 body was clearly visible from the road. You can just make out the red coupe behind the 914 where the roof still stands.

    So lucky; the roof just stopped shy of touching this shell! Did hit the windshield frame or the stainless steel cover! The blue 912 coupe to the right bore most of the brunt.

    Doesn't get much closer then that! This is a real '67 911 and not a 912 version. Note the S vented rotors. The blue 912 coupe really saved this one from damage.

    The corner of the cars roof now props up this mess. Can't find the pictures of the 914 or the red 911 coupe but will go back and take some.
    Thanks for reading this! Please share your interesting 911 finds.

        Yeah, this one almost got me put in jail, thanks to the Border Patrol.

          Crispy critter for sure! Here's a shot I found with a tree making its way through it.

            Justin,

              Hey Tony,
              This is actually my parents old place. This was just a silly sort of fun post to create content back when it was basically just me posting up here...
