Hey guys,
I saw this 1965 Porsche 356 SC for sale today for $33.5K. I nearly what my pants and I asked myself "did I find a gem!, can I sell this and get a nice 911 3.2 or SC to keep my 964 company!"
I sent the link to my mechanic and he said it looks good but seems fishy. I decided to take the leap of faith, but the owner said its sale is already pending. It is kinda pointless to keep day dreaming that I found something like this, but do you guys think this is real or a replica?

You know what they say, "if it's too good to be true, it probably is". Considering that's looking like it's in excellent condition, and NADA lists that car from $68-125k, it's probably a scam.
Yep, scam. Here's a link to the real sale. http://www.motoringinvestments.com/xc105.htm
Reverse image search shows all the same pictures.
It was sold 4 years ago, March 2009, for $75k. So the guy couldn't have owned it for 8 years.

Two things that make me suspicious:
1. 356Cs don't have badges on their hubcaps.
2. That "Made in Germany" stamp. I don't know, just doesn't feel right to me. I feel a proper 1960s german car needs a disclaimer written in proper bureaucratic german.

1. It's a scam, see my old post.
2. It's an SC, does that change the badge stuff? My knowledge of 1965 Porsches is pretty poor, so I don't know, but all the other pictures of legit cars (this one is legit too, but a scam) also have the emblem on the wheels.

1. I didn't read your post.
2. German Wikipedia says so. Did a quick comparison between a B and a C, actual difference is the shape of the hubcap, B is slghtly more complex than C. Then again some Cs have plain hubcaps without badge. Likely base models if there was such a thing.
3. Never said it wasn't genuine, looks way too good for a replica.
