1987 Porsche 944s

The good:   This a complete car that is largely unmolested and straight.  It has a factory limited slip, momo steering wheel, and a real manual steering rack.  THe wheels are very cool .     The bottom end is from an SCCA ITS racer, and is solid.   (lightened crank, turbo rods high compression pistons)   

The bad.  The dash is cracked.   The front seats are cracked.  It turns over but there is a bad oil leak and I don't think the cylinder head is getting oil (oil pressure valve is stuck)   There are three body problem areas driver's door, hood and fender.    

Car has been mostly inside past three years.  I have too many projects, as you can see.   Great LS swap vehicle    $3,000. / or trade for something that doesn't take up space or needs attention.   

I have a spare motor that is negotiable.   (erdocmitch

Definitely southeast judging by the Spanish moss. Awesome car and a nice price!

Are they Forgelines? I had a similar set on my Boxster before I got supercups. Looks like a good deal, hope you sell it quick

I don't know who you are but there is instant credibility when I see these pictures.  Yep, this guy knows what's he talking about and is completely trustworthy.......buy the car.

In reply to Datsun310Guy :

Thanks - I want to get back on the Jaguar project (in the background).  And the Norton, BSA and Yamaha. Oh,  and the other 944, and of course, the Spec Miata.  I like helping Cruiser Matt in the shop too.  Also my 4 jobs... and a house that is falling apart.

I'm passing.  After doing more research it seems I need a 88 plus S2 or 951 for my intended project.  I wish this was the one but alas it's not.

Thanks - I wanted traditional doors- but they come with some upkeep- I oil them every quarter...varnish, polyurethane, etc never held up...

I think I need to move a few states south, all the cool project cars are too far away!  The snow currently falling is another great indicator that I should move!!
