Default Shark sighting: Mt Airy, Maryland

Does anybody know the owner of a white/black US 928S auto in or near Mt Airy?

It looks like it could use rescuing. The registration stickers are expired and I was told it get s rolled to different places in the lot every once in a while. It has been there for over a year. The roof is beginning to rust and the seats are beginning to come apart. Other than that, it looks pretty good. It has good looking (but getting flat) Toyo Proxes tires on nicely polished dish wheels.

If i'm not mistken, that sounds like the car that had tossed a t-belt. Some girl from out west owned it but abondoned it due to the size of the repair bill. If you have a pic I can confirm.

It's in the parking lot of some business. I think it's a cabinet builder. Other than the very polished wheels and some surface rust (mostly on the passenger side) on the roof, it looks like a plain stock white US 928S. It has a pre-85 black interior. A timing belt snap shouldn't be a big deal on that car since it's probably a 9.0:1 L-jet engine.

If I can find it again, I'll try to snap a pic.

I didn't get any pictures. It's at a place called New London Precision Instrument in New Market. It also has a black pinstripe down the center of the rub strips.
