Jim! Shame on you. I thought you were going to advise against even trying to start that thing, given 929 Int'ls experience with parting 928's.
And somehow I forgot about the no title thing. That is definitely a major consideration.
Still, knowing if the engine will crank over, is there spark to the plugs, will it fire up, etc, etc, etc, can help determine the value of the used parts. So it would probably be worth a little effort to works, and what does not.

Hey Richard,
We do need to get together. This '81 in my garage might need some of those parts. It's being saved. Now if I could get the camera to work I'd post some photos.

The most expesive things on a 928 are the paint and the interior. You look to be in good shape there, mostly. Anyway it makes sense to see what you have before any disassembly so I'd start with a good cleaning and then at least try to get it running. Probably not as bad as it looks in that regard. Fun project.

An update, or end................ Pretty much everything that can be unbolted has been removed. Ready for the scrap man to come haul it off.

Just like Jim Bailey has been telling us over and over again, its a lot easier to strip it all the way down, and then add on only the parts that you need for the track. Plus nice upgrades while you are at it.
