Purchased circa 1988 while I was working at Radio Shack. My "first Porsche"!

 

a turbo with cookie cutters!?

 

cookie cutters are the wheels- only came on non- turbo. I have -somewhere- a 944 on a monster truck chassis that i bought at CVS - we ended up raiding them everywhere and giving them as door prizes at the 944fest. I pick up about every little 944 i can find...and some air cool ones too.

 

Too funny! That was my first thought, too.

 

That front lip looks like it has the aerodynamics of a brick...and what...no rear diffuser. Love It!

 

i have a similar silver rc car that is a Martini 911- had the controller with a wire going to the car.

 

Well, it was Radio Shack, so what can you expect as far as authenticity? Lol. Cute little car, though. I have some work to do (left batteries in) and it will be part of my model car collection.

 

Woah. Air-cooled 944s? Do please educate me.

 

Here is a pic.

 

Air cooled at the front, where you have all the cooling air you want. Now why didn't Dr. Porsche think of that.

 

Interesting.

And I think I had one of those, Bonnie! Must have been where it all started.

 

Hey, it's a one-owner! Cool.

I remember those. Came in red and blue, about 8-10 years ago right? (I remember the weirdest stuff). I always wanted one.

To follow the theme; guys, it's clearly an early car. Cookies and antenna. It is therefore a very rare Callaway Turbo 944. If it was a late 944, they would've laced the antenna into the windshield, would've gotten really poor reception

Also guys - RS made a Testarossa with cookies. Bonster probably knows what I'm talking about.....

Bonster - pics of your collection? Feel free to PM!

Take care!

 

YES TOTALLY A CALLAWAY

 

I had the Audi Quatro, fun!

If that's been sitting a while make sure to check the timing belt !
