Default Bought 88 NA for $300 with pics

I bought this 1988 944 NA on Friday - no motor though. I am bummed as the handle broke off on the driver's seat for moving it back and forth and I can't get the mechanism to dis-engage. I think it is rusted on the driver's side rail.

Well since engine is out anyways and you have a few options going stock or S, S2 or 968?

Any more pics of the inside or under side?

Not bad for $300...clean it up, put a good engine in there, flip it for 10x what you paid!

Or...Josh, time for a V8 car

Man you guys must not know Josh at all!... I'm sure by the time he reads your post he will have already parted out the whole car and sold more than half the parts from it.

That being said, Josh holler at me for a price on the Momo wheel (without hub).
And if you happen to have any of the small turbo starters still laying around!

Does the lower dash separate from the middle portion?

LOL....I am second in line for the MOMO. Could use it for the F40LM replica I have been working on, on and off, for the last 7 years.

I am in Mississippi. Let me know if you decide to put it back on the road. I have several parts you could use. Header panel, lights, etc etc. And I should be heading back to Fort Campbell, KY in the month or two for a class.

Great purchase. Unless you are half brain dead you can't help but make money off of her no matter what you decide to do.

Congrats.
