Maybe I have more in total quantity, but you sure have a few interesting items that are not in my collection, yet. I did not know that there was a PDF parts catalog - isn't this duplicating the PET?
I have an interesting CD that has many 928-related articles from the Christophorous magazine as PDFs in German and English, plus some nice factory photographs.
From a history perspective, besides the 928 Project book, the most interesting non-Porsche-factory publications are the stories in Auto Motor und Sport, the premier German car magazine. They are so close to the factory, that they seem to pick-up on all kinds of details that you read nowhere else. I have all articles they have ever published on the 928...

Other than 1280x1024 screen resolution issue software version is much better IMHO.

If you have a chance, please scan what you have.

I presume the winner of the 928 Chilton manual is not aware of Rennlist? Maybe someone here should write this person and bring them into the fold of 928 enthusiasts? It could save the poor person some money and general heartache.
I wonder if this bidder is perhaps an owner of a Bitter SC as well as a 928. The Bitter SC was a neat looking car but wasn't it basically a Buick chassis underneath a German-styled body/coach?
