This is really sad. Someone took this car and hacked it to crap. It looks like it was painted with spray cans. Check out the cool berber carpet!!! Good thing about the car, it has a 88 engine with only 58K miles!!! This engine came out of the car that I parted out a few months ago. I purchased both cars together. The guy had the 86 you see here, and decided to "fix-it-up" (ya right!!!). He purchased the wrecked 88 with the low miles, and swapped over the tranny and engine. This is the worst job I have seen anyone do to the inside of one of these cars. Check out the switches he switched out. The suspension and drive train is good. So e-mail or pm here or post here for the parts.

I don't think it's a decal, it looks hand painted.

That makes it worth more right?

This car looks to have had major body work at least 2 times, and crappy work at that. It even has rust holes in it!!!! I don't think it would even be worth making into a track car.

Are the fog lights operable? Looking to add those to my 924S since the car came with the wiring but no switch / lights. There's actually other 924S stuff I'm looking into too but probably can't find with a late car.

He probably swapped out the switches because he thought they were ugly.

I like to think of Jesus like a dirty old bum. He's comin' up to me, and I'm 'bout to sock him, cause, you know, he's a dirty old bum, but then I say, "Wait a minute, there's something... I don't know, special about this guy."
