I think I built a Race Car
Got the 1980 Euro 928s 5spd home today.....it was on a lift for 4 weeks 
With the headers, dual exhaust , alloy motor and trans mount, air cond delete, forged wheels.... spare tire bye, bye I bet the car weight in at around 2800lbs. It has a new tan vinyl interior and no power seats so..... I took it out 15 miles as a break in and it hauls some major ***!
This is the car I paid 1400 for that was a total basket case! It has a ton of new or newer parts...from the master brake cylinder, fuel pump, engine harness.....the list goes on and on!
Grand total of 6 thousand spent on the car(including rims/tires) + many, many man hours. If any1 is evey in Holland, MI drop me a line....I'll give a a ride and a beer!

WOW!! It looks great!.... Does the car's speed cause one to crap his pants when he take a ride in it, or is the little guy just still potty training? (cute kid by the way)

the rims are champion motorsports... 8.5 front and 11.5 rear off a brand new 997. tires are
rear 295/30 zr19
front 235/35 zr19
I'm running a 5/16" mr gasket spacer in the rear and had to flare the quarter w/a 1" oak dowel. I can fit my pinkey finger in between the tire/control arm & tire/quarter. Pretty tight fit!
p.s. the car is mocca brown my wife calls it **** brown and my adopted son is almost 2 1/2 so he still rocks the diapers!

Looking nice my friend, and you might offer goffaramma his own diaper just in case, I'd hate to see the seats get dirty.
More pics please
