Hi everyone,
I've been reading this forum for about 2 years now, I think that this board is just amazing and I just want to thank you guys for all the information that the forum contains (It's like a Porsche College) . I'm new here (post wise) and nobody knows me so:
My name is Rad and currently I live in Canada (Barrie, Ontario), but I was born in Europe, and I visit it on regular basis. I'm a car mechanic, I never worked on Porsches, but with a proper info anything can be done. Ok enough about me, I just bought my first Porsche and it's a 1987 944S, with 61000 miles on it, the car is all original I even have the alarm key and the factory alarm works. I picked the car today and I spent the whole day behind the wheel I did approx. 250miles today, and I just love my 944. Next week I'll do the belts, water pump, rollers, chain tensioner, seals etc. Ok won't bore you much longer here are some pics just after we finished all paper work.

THANKS
Rad

Congratulations...nice find!

Yeah...Yeah... I know It's one of the rarest combination of colors out there .
But I think It's a pretty good one, it suits the car well.

That is one nice looking S! Very shiney paint, and great interior!

Good luck with it! Change that cam chain tensioner ASAP!

nice, it looks awesome. I really like red on these cars, of course I'm biased.

What he said!

Welcome to the obsession. You'll never be quite the same again.

Not good

Sounds like a good plan, your about to double the value of your car! (based on total invested, not actual resale value)

rads2

Yeah i know, I'll make it my own as time goes by. I already have a list upgrades to do, euro bumpers, euro rear lower spoiler, and of course 968 stuff, and the rear Porsche sign between the lights has to go too.

I actually dont think it looks that bad on your car! That light strip is kinda funny looking, but on some 944s it looks ok.

Thanks for the welcome, as for the tensioner I'll do it next week with the rest of the stuff.

Pete944 I'm sure that you've heard it a million of times, and I'll say it again,
Your car is AMAZING, what paint did you use on your tail lights?
