While for most people barn finds are only cool if they come down to muscle cars launched in the ‘60s, others love pretty much every single abandoned car that’s discovered after sitting for many years.
This is the case of this 1977 Porsche 924, which is listed on Craigslist as a genuine barn find, with the owner now trying to sell it to someone who’d like to bring it in full working condition.
The old Porsche doesn’t look too bad for a barn find, with the seller explaining that “this car has been garaged for 25+ years.”
Of course, it would make a great restoration project, but the seller emphasizes it needs to be hauled, which means the engine doesn’t start. While no other specifics are provided on the engine, we do know the car has a little over 76,000 miles (122,300 kilometers) on the clock, so it’s not necessarily a low mileage Porsche.
The red paint doesn’t come with any obvious signs of rust, although this is something that needs to be thoroughly inspected by the buyer, and some upholstery work is required.
The good part is that this Porsche 924 is really cheap, and it can be yours for the price of a new iPhone. The seller expects to get $1,200 for the car, and you can find it in Longview, WA.
Porsche 924 was produced between 1976 and 1988, and it was offered with a 2.0-liter engine on the base model. The German manufacturer produced over 25,500 units in 1977, out of which only 7,500 were sold in the United States. So if you live in the States and hoping to come across a Porsche 924 in good condition, that’s something very unlikely to happen.
As a matter of fact, the ’78 model is the one that was more successful in the U.S., with Porsche selling over 11,600 units in the country.
