Pick & Pull 924/931 parts cars
I just hit up the Fairfield Pick and Pull and there was a 924 and a 931 in the yard.
The 924: mostly complete, except for the tinted glass and script doors I took off of it. I didn't bother with the hatch, but it is intact and tinted as well.
The 931: Broken hatch, did manage to get a sunroof bag from it. Seems mostly there as well except for the turbo nose grill inserts. Kinda bummed about that.
In the past there has been a 924S and a few 944's, early and late. Don't know what it is about this pick and pull, but these Porsches seems to end up in there more than you'd think.

I find a 944 in the san jose pick n pulls occasionally. There's sometimes a 924. On the rare occasion I go to the newark yard, it's 50/50 whether I find a 924/944. I guess they usually end up in your fairfield yard!

I believe the 931 had brown script doors, and I'm heading back tomorrow to see if I can get a brake booster valve that just broke on my car....maybe I should get them while I am there

So did the 931 have script doors? If you didn't take them, I think I would actually drive all the way up there for those. They're not all that valuable I guess, but hard to find.
I'll be in the SJ yards tomorrow and I might as well post up what I find.

This is the same yard where we found a 944 with an option code "220" on the sticker -- but we couldn't verify the condition of the tranny (spun the wheel, nothing happened).

I hit up the Oakland PNP and there was a 944 S2 with significant fire damage in the engine compartment.
The Richmond one has a 924 in their yard. I pulled off a middle "PORSCHE" rear reflector and a cargo cover from that one.
I just broke my brake booster check valve, anyone have a spare?

I got a nice set of sport seats from a 944 from the junk yard today. Crazy Ray's in Mt. Airy MD has an '87 in the yard with most of the mechanicals intact. Too bad all 4 of the fuchs were cracked. The black carpet and interior were mostly still there too for those looking for the hard to find and brittle trim pieces.

I went to both SJ pick n pulls and the northern one had no Porsches. The southern one had a VW beetle - does that count? Waste of a day! Oh well.
My dad calls me in the morning... he says he's at the richmond pick n pull. After I asked why he would hit the junkyards without me, I told him to look for Porsches, like a 924, and he said he saw not a one? I guess he just didn't know where to look.
