He'd go down, start working on the car, get irritated after an hour or two, come back inside, the car would sit for 2-3 more weeks, he'd repeat the process, etc. Finally after many months he had it done but absolutely hated the car and sold it to me for a song because he just didn't want to ever have to deal with it again.
This was an n/a too. 951s are worse in all respects.

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?

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.
