Default Just picked up my 85.5 944...

Can a Turbo my NA?
Juuust kidding!

I owned this car 12+ years ago...have not seen it in 3+ years.
it's not as bad as I expected. Bought it back from my buddy.

Needs a battery, everything seems to work! Windows, sunroof,hatch..etc
I think it had LSD, I need to check the option sticker tomorrow.

Guess I better do a timing belt and the guards red paint needs some love really bad! faded pink look.
Dash is pretty cracked.. that bugs me since I replaced the dash on this car before I sold it to him.

I am kinda psyched to be a 944 owner again.

Where is the best place to get a rear wiper plug these days, I want to ditch the wiper.

Should be a fun summer project bringing the old girl back!

Just rambling...
