yup, had to drive 89 miles to get it, then have AAA tow it to my house, but it was well worth it. Got some good parts off of that car.

 

Lol, a CAT lived in my 944 before i got it!!

 

Just wait for the pictures of the 951 I picked up the same week as the one in the picture. I think some of you guys will cry if you see it....

 

Ya...I can't touch those picture. But one time I found bird crap on my car. True story.

 

Wow that engine looks like a cream puff.

 

How long was that boat anchored?

 

what do you have to do to a engine to get it to look like that? Did the PO drive it with the wrong kind of coolant or no oil for long periods at a time? Im worried about mine now. How many miles does it have?

 

That's just wrong. You actually think that thing has any salvageable value to it?!?!

I'd find the obviously undeserving P.O. and drop it in his front lawn so he'd have to look at it every day and remind him of the horrible abuse he inflicted!

MAN!!!

 

Looks like you just need a head gasket.

 

that'll buff right out

 

I love cars like this as it gives me something to do

 

Just pour in a can of STP. Or better yet, Prolong...

 

this thread's made me want to beat someone...

 

Did those parts sit outside or did the motor look like that when you cracked it open? If the latter, then I don't know what to say. Surely the wrong type of coolant (salt water?) could cause corrosion like that in the coolant passages, but in the combustion chamber too? WTF?

 

The motor was like that when I cracked it open. I felt the 1/2 inch breaker bar bend before I quit trying to crank it over by the crank pulley. There were spider webs inside the combustion chamber before I wd40 it. I would imagine that motor was sitting with no plugs in it for many years. There was no coolant but does have oil in it. The problem now is trying to get the flex plate off the back of the engine without being able to turn the engine over to get to all the bolts....
