This was an n/a too. 951s are worse in all respects.
I'm not listening!

I sent you an email.

I just got my 924S in december, so I don't know if I qualify as a practiced eye, but like I said in my email, I can go take more pics for you and if you give me a list of stuff to look for, I can do that. Did you get my email?

No worries, I'll just use his plates from the pic to find his house, go there and MAKE HIM!

Lemme know if he answers. Maybe he is scared to answer long distance calls, shall I give him a try?

I've seen the car driving around my 'hood. Very clean. Nice interior.
Don't know about the mechanics; I'm afraid to investigate further as I
may do something stupid and get the frying pan.

You guys here on rennlist are amazing!! I would love for you to go look him up for me. I am interested in interior and body shape mostly, I can handle the engine components Im planning on eventually swapping to the 3.0 liter 968, i just need a frame to start with. Im aware the cars clutch is gone, but everthing else is supposed to work. Airflite I sent you an email.
