Default '88 924S FS

Original paint nile green metallic with brown interior. 103,804 miles. 15" phone dial wheels with 70% tread left on street tires. The body is mostly straight. The passenger side front wheel well is folded under by the bumper. There's the usual rock chips on the nose and hood and some other various minor scratches and small dents. I removed all the body side molding and that took a little paint with it on the passenger door. Buffed the paint twice and it shows the metallic flakes nicely. The interior is actually pretty nice. I covered the dash with a cap, replaced the shift ****, inner and outer covers. original carpet that cleaned up nicely. Could use some new floor mats though. Script seats with some seams wearing on the drivers side (passenger side quite nice). I replaced the sunroof gears so that's operational. Body seals tight so no leaks in the rain. AC has been retro fitted to R134 and is operational. Good heater too. New radio and antenna that really sounds great.

Mechanically this car is very sound. We changed the head (bent #4 exhaust valve), resealed the front engine, new timing belt, replaced some vacuum hoses and installed a new battery. Repaired the windshield wipers with a used motor and new blade refills. Latest fix was a new clutch disk and the transmission is butter smooth (plenty of clutch peddle). Tightened up the suspension with Bilstien shock inserts in the front struts and Koni adjustable rear shocks. Lowered the trailing arms too.

There's probably a couple of other fixes I'm forgetting but I've documented everything, kept receipts and have some PO receipts. You can read through the thread I've written on this car here...

Here's the Craigslist ad...

I'll sell the car to any Rennlist member for $3500. It's located in Lebanon TN.

Thanks for looking!
