Default FINALLY found the car for me :)

After looking for a 1988 911 for a while, I pulled the trigger on this one and its on the way home to join the rest of the crew..
It has 120k miles on the clock
Engine was rebuilt 15k miles ago
The color is diamond blue pearl and it has been a California car all it's life ..
Got a PPI done and the only thing that is needed to be replace are a couple of fuel lines...
Here's a picture

I don't know about the seats, I'm not too familiar with this type of 911 how can I find out if they are signature seats? That's not sport seats right? Let me see if I can find a picture of the seats..
Here we go

I don't know, I'm not too familiar with this cars, I'm familiar wit 993's and 964's , so that's not original? It will arrived home next week and I will check out everything closely

Sounds like you are familiar with later models but if you need a starting point do a seerch in this forum under "101" on a thread started by me. There is lots of helpfull info and links by your fellow rennlisters.

Rudy only has 1/2 of the 993's ever built, stockpiled in Texas. Now, he'll corner the 911 market.

Doug-good eyes on the fender trim-I've never seen that on a Carrera. Hard to tell in the pics, but it looks like it was "done" right. I mean, Porsche has done a little of everything over the years. It would be good to see it in more close up pics.
