Thanks Keith, yes the GT is going to be back on his site again possibly...but in even better condition with new tires and lots of polishing to insignificant parts of the car! LOL.
Never thought I would be able to afford a GTS, let alone a 55k 5-speed, I hope the cars turns out to be all I hope. I would have LOVED to have bought Chuck Z's red GTS, or ANY car he has laid his hands on for that matter, but this one will do for now.

The black car is slowly but surely turning into one of those cars. It's got a ways to go yet and is truly a rescue. You done good!

Anyone know what that square "window" is on the driver's side of the center compartment?

Pewter;

I know that car. I looked at in when it lived in Pa.

It's been about 5-6 years ago but I still remember a couple of key things about it. I passed on it due to two of those reasons.

Email me off list and I'll fill you in.

I've got a '91 GT in Amazon Green. The interior is a 99 color (custom). Not as grey as the light grey color, not as creamy as the linen color. The Amazon Green color gets alot of attention. You are a lucky guy.

Thanks, Chuck.

I'm looking at a GTS that does not have the '928 GTS' badging located on the rear deck lid (see example below). Can you tell me why it would not be present? The car is original colour, with apparently no body work that would account for the missing badges. Thanks,

It was a delete option

You could order a GTS without rear model designation. The car was either ordered without the emblem or someone removed it. There is an option number for the delete. I'll get the number and post it.

EDIT: Option code 498 is rear model designation delete. BTW, tell me its not the car in the picture. Bad history..

The square box on the phone console in the picture is a speaker, the factoru phone also includes a antenna right smack dab in the top center of the windshield as well, looks outa place to me.
