Maybe I'm crazy - I see 3/4 of a perfect car.

I was actually supposed to come up today for a hatch - I'll see you guys next week. Hopefully the third try will work on getting a straight hatch.

Great color...was that a color match option or a factory color? I haven't seen one of those before!
Shame its destined for the parts bin, but some must die so the others can live!

Kibort - thats what I like to hear! Wouldn't that be awesome if someone actually took the time to tube frame this car... I say the rare color is good enough reason to resurrect it.

Porsche never considered it's service with collapsed motor mounts, where the engine drops 1/2" from normal position.

Is there some west coast /east coast turf war? I'd like to think we have the best ability to redistribute used parts to needy customers which helps the 928 community.
