Thanks, I'm digging into it as we speak. I've been known to mechanic-ate a thing or two in the past so I may take your advice in the end, or just give it a once over myself and make the drive. Somewhere in the interwebs (don't remember if here or pelican) they mentioned that there was a technician at Autohaus who specialized in classic cars, that was in 2010; but seeing that they have a 'musuem' with porsches of this era on site I'd be surprised if there's no one there who knows how to work on them... I'll try to get to the bottom of it and report back, if anything just to add to the local area knowledge-base.
inspect below the car. (If automatic) Drop the heat shields and inspect for automatic transmission fluid seepages from the transmission cooling line flex hose sections. This drippage ends up on hot mufflers.
The above are the critical fire hazards.
secondly, make sure fluid levels are topped off. That’s before driving it to a knowledgable mechanic.

The big one is flexible combustible fluid hose integrity. Pull the air cleaner and fresh air tubes off and make sure the fuel hoses show no cracks or noticeable age related wear.
