Default 928 in the country

Being pretty new to the 928 world, having just gotten mine in Feb, and having seen only 2 in the last year or so, I was surprised to run across one for sale on a back road outside Georgetown, SC. VIN plate has # 9289100339, supposed to be a '79, but has a black leather(?) interior, an S front spoiler and a much newer wing....8" headlights and no sunroof. Body is in pretty rough shape, with a new cheap red paint job. It did crank and run well, though. Also, it's an auto.

I have no need for another one yet, no where to put it at the minute, but if anyone's interested, I got the owners name and phone number. He wa supposedly asking $5,700, which seems a bit much, especially since it hasn't been inspected since 1995.

I'll try and post a picture of the vin plate, and I have a few others.

it's a 79 Euro #339, leather interior found in many Euros as they don't have the sun shringage problems we have here... where is Moore Co Bill?

Bill,
Interesting find...another Euro. Too bad the respray was a cheap one...sounds like it might be time to call out the "928 Rescue" crew, eh?
I used to live in Southern Pines...circa 1970! I trust you are a golfer?
Cheers,
Tim

Yeah, I really wanted to take it home with me, it was looking pretty lost out there..... Someone in the past had a lot of fun with it, I'm sure... If the lady in my life didn't have her heart set on a new Volvo wagon this week, I'd have probably called the guy, and, if we could have reached a reasonable compromise on price, snuck it home....
