Very cool! I’m assuming it’s an S2? Looking forward to seeing it cleaned up to see if the paint is as nice as it might be. Having owned a 968 coupe and now a 951, I’ve been getting the itch the own a cab, especially a 968, but a 944S2 would do just fine. Cheers!
Well......disaster averted. Wonder how long it would've lasted before the valves and pistons had a meet and greet. Car only has just over 150,000kms on it.
Valve cover back and on and cylinders lubed with ATF. Plugs out and crank over to build oil pressure. Fresh fuel in the tank with a new pump and filter. Fuel pump jumpered to clean any old crap out the lines. With the new battery fitted, she fired right back into life.
Congrats glad to see it saved. 13years was a long time. I hope you did the oil cooler seals as well while your were in there doing the WP and belts. Sitting that long if you find the car over heats I would replace the radiator.
Another 944 after a few years of absence. Not absent to Porsche, just sold a 928 and still own a 79 Manual, currently under resto. Found this cab by chance. Been sitting for a very long time. Guys son died and he parked the car and left it. I showed him a few pics of some of the cars I've done in the past and he was happy I'd bring it back to life. A few bucks changed hands and I now own another 944. Only have two crappy pics for now but will have more next week.
Planning to do all the front of the motor, new top, new interior and new wheels. Might need to lean on some of you 944 tufosi. I have some plans to make this car look cool. It's going to be fun.
