Nice Euro-Shark, Love the color,I always liked the older body design with the 'sharper' shark nose. Just try not to fall into the same trap I did: once I got it running well, I found that I'd rather be driving it than working on it....I drove my '83 Euro 5 speed around for almost 5 years With NO RADIO because it's "Too Much FUN to drive"!! LOL
As for your "mouse Problem" you can get a complete front engine wiring harness for about $550->600 from Capt. Carl at 928Classics.com.....IIRC It is a masterpiece! Heavier Gage wire with the proper connectors both crimped & Soldered, with all connector plugs tagged & Marked. an almost 'no brainier' to install..
.To prevent a 'Mouse Attack" Put a cat in the car with food, water & litter box and let the cat 'camp out 'in the car for a day... The car will develop a "Cat Smell" and MICE will leave it alone...Mice can smell the cat, but humans can't...
Good Luck with the car, May she give you "Miles of Smiles"

Jim Doer runs 928classics.com. Sean Ratts makes the front engine harness and is sold through roger at 928sRUs. Also, dryer sheets work well to keep mice away - they hate the smell (no cat required). It's an old RV trick...

Now that I’ve worked out most of the issues, I thought I’d share a quick photo for folks from this evening’s drive. Can’t wait to get to some events next year!
