1981 928 3spd Automatic with the 4.5 liter. The interior is in great shape with no cracks in the dash or rips in the seats. The luggage carpet is faded and the stereo is not working. The paint is also in good shape due to it being repainted a few years ago with only one minor chip and a couple of minor blemishes in the clear coat on the hood. It has nearly new tires on phone dial wheels. This car is currently a non runner. The reason it doesn't run is because while starting it up i believe one of the head gaskets blew (i'm not sure) it still idled but coolant had been leaking from somewhere I could not locate. Looking back it was probably a simpler problem but I started to tear the engine down and while trying to cover up the intake valves a wrench fell in so you are going to have to take the heads off the engine to get to the wrench anyway. When running it drove amazingly, pulled strong, and ripped through the corners. I have replaced the water pump, all the belts including the timing belt, the thermostat and installed aluminum Armrest supports from 928 motorsports. It also will come with a power steering pump rebuild kit (928 motorsports) and a new silicone oil pan gasket. This was a car that just got out of my price range and i'm trying to just regain some of my money. I am hoping for $2300 because I strongly believe, even none running, the car is in great shape. I'm also open to any reasonable offer or possible trade?

You are going to need some better shots of that interior AND the paint blems... Looks like a nice car though! Personally...I would find a parts car that looks like crap but runs fine for a few hundred bucks and put that engine in it and be done with it...maybe the parts car would have a good steering rack too! That would be nice. Then all of a sudden you have a hell of a nice car for little $$$$... Just me. If I lived in CA and didn't already own an '81 I'd probably already have bought this car... at least gone to look at it that is for sure!

Dam wish you where on the east coast this would be #4 for us and I have the parts car and engine to fix it.
GOOD LUCK with evil bay BUT I would try your local PCA guys first since they will understand what you have.

Wow, Steve, nice car and the leather dash is still under the defrost vents! Seems a shame to give it away, when you could just put it on jack stands with car cover for a while, until you can chip away at it.

$2k recoup today vs- a sweet ride in the future and >twice the recoup once sorted out.

We all have our constrainst though, current economy one of them, so best of luck with whatever you finally decide.
