Default WTB: Porsche 944 n/a early offset

Hi all,
I'm interested in purchasing a well sorted 944 n/a. I currently own a 931 and have been toying with the idea of making a full on CGT replica. As luck would have it I was able to locate and install an actual CGT intercooler and running CGT stock boost this car is certainly a peppy prospect... however, I'm at a crossroads. Speed or Style? I figured I could have both. So, I've been collecting the needed parts to do the CGT body conversion and I am close to beginning the process but I'm not sure I want to mess with a very nice 931, you need to cut up the rear quarters and the truth is it'll never REALLY be a 937... but I love the look of the 944, I came of age in the 80s so my appreciation for the 944 runs quite deep.

So I'm thinking I'm gonna bite the bullet, sell or trade the 931 and get into a nice 944 n/a instead of the 931. I don't have the budget for a really nice 944 Turbo and would actually prefer an N/A. So if any of you guys in New England have a "very good condition" 944 available let me know.

Some of the things I'm looking for in the car.

AC must work (preferrably upgraded)

Exterior Color (Prefer Silver, White)

Interior (also lighter is better here but burgandy would work also)

Must be early offset. I want to fit some fuchs sooner or later.

Must be well sorted. I put a lot of time and money into my 931 and don't want to go through this again.

Must have up to date front of engine service.


I'm in Southeastern, Connecticut

Would you be interested in a red 87 with black interior with a rebuilt engine with less than 1500 miles on it? I know it has alot of stuff you said you dont want but being rebuilt and running great is a plus.

Mine is in good shape and runs perfectly.Recent belts.. rollers/waterpump were changed before this past belt change. Already has 15x7/8 Fuchs..

Only thing is the A/C doesn't blow cold (needs a recharge) and my black drivers sport seat needs a recovering..

I don't actually require an early n/a, just an n/a with the early wheel offset. I'd certainly prefer an 85 and a half or an 86' for the upgraded dash and other tweaks but I wouldn't turn away a really nice early car either. I just want to know what's out there, I'm gonna take my time on this particular purchase and find the right one. No mods, just stock and in really good shape. I may have to keep my 931 though since it appears once you start collecting them you can't stop and I certainly don't wanna find myself re-buying a 931 down the road... they're hard to find in good condition.
