Default Another "too good to be" eBay deal on a 928S?
Link

"It ran until 3 days ago."
Buy it now for $1000.

In no way am I affiliated with the seller.

If the TB went, the engine is fine.

I haven't seen any relatively whole 928 go for $1k on eBay in a long time.

Sorry guys this one is not for me.
I am off to pick up the 86.5 and just bought an 83 Euro - yes both have 5 speeds.
That bump on my head is really having an effect.
Whats a clutch?

This is my favourite bit:

"This is the 16 valve non-interference motor, so timing belt breaking should do no damage to motor or valves."

I might have a hack at it. I really, really dislike white cars. I'm flying up to OK this weekend so I can stop by and maybe have a look. I'm worried about TBF more than TB failure...

Roger, let me know when yo're going to sell one of your stable.

It is yours. A few rattle cans of black paint and she's a beaut ....
Remember, no TBF problems on pre-85s, Porsche had the proper solution way back then.
