The shrubs have now almost completely engulfed the car. I was curious what a reasonable would be.

Neglected in a driveway<br/>

Ah, 944 oil pan gasket leak. Not a fun one. Pull the oil pan & have it baffled while its out to stop from hard left hand turn oil starvation.

Wow. For only 2/10th of a million dollars that VIN plate can be bolted to a tub that's a tad less rusty.

Porsche made it easy for all of us.

I'm not sure if cutting and replacing is the best way though. A restamp might be easier. On a restamp you get to choose your VIN.
