I bet, to some people, the 5 speed is worth the 3k alone. To some people.

I say go for it. Early car is non-interference. Would be a fun cruiser. Just learn to live with the little things that won't be working. I have had a couple of them, and enjoyed them. Actually took one to the Challenge back in 2004 or 2006, I can't remember. It was gutted loud and a ton of fun

Know of any good places for interior parts? Sources for mechanicals seem plentiful. Interior, not so much.

I don't think 3k is too steep for a manual car. I'm a little out of the loop for 928 stuff lately, but 928 International is still around. They part out a ton of cars and should have a lead on most of what you want. 928 Specialists are the sponsor of the Rennlist 928 forum. I don't know them but they seem reputable.

Manual makes desirable and the 3k not unreasonable.  Especially if it is running driving car. 

Back in the 1990s there were a bunch of these that were gutted out race cars. I got to drive one on track and it was a really fun fast car. 

I remember watching a world challenge race on tv that had a 928 in it and Derek Daly was like that’s a real race car  there that 928 lol

The owner/driver of that car, Mark Anderson runs 928 International that specialized in 928 parts and upgrades.  The car was a bored out quad cam of 6.4L making about 425hp.

Rennlist has a pretty active 928 forum. You may want to look around in there..

There’s a great 928 thread over on corner-carvers. Tech heavy.

Trying to see it, if the weather and my life would cooperate.

In reply to markwemple :

I bought most of my interior parts from a guy in Atlanta that runs 928 Garage.  He had fair prices and he’s willing to ship.

Yep,  that’s the guy.  I bought a  nice set of seats from his,  some dash parts,  and the rear side panels.  He had everything I needed and was a nice guy.
