having seen Danglerb's pics......
it may be easily salvageable (restore-able maybe a better thing to say).
one door panel missing, some minor rust issues (I know, that makes 928 owners run for cover---mine has a lot more rust, and it's very fix-able), paint will be a major issue, maintenance (a huge question mark currently unanswered), other unseen issues (?).
it is definitely not on par with Rob's car, but may be a "buy" for some one willing to put in the time and $$$ to not let it go to waste------
And it is a GT. There weren't many of those made, much less shipped to the US.
That should count for something.

$5k for a repaint, another $5k for mechanical renews, a few more $k for interior refresh. There's a reason that pristine GT's sell in the mid to high $20's. This one would be a buy at somewhat less than asking price, assuming you are looking for a project and a car to drive when you are done. Otherwise, buy one that's already up to the condition you think you want. ...then spend another $5-10k actually getting it there.
