Nice 928, sty3x. I miss my old Guards Red...although Indischrot is a much less common color. Have you ever had your Indischrot next to a Guards Red? How do the colors differ?

I got the payment, Sty3x. Thanks for being an honest seller. I'm going to buy a new one...I hate to spend that kind of money on a fan motor but it's hard to get used stuff. You never know how long they'll last.

My AC is blowing hot...I gotta fix that too. I think it must have a leak. Went down over winter.

Keep that 928 on the road. I drive mine everyday. Now that I've put a wad of money in it, it's been reliable...except for the fan, AC and a few little things.

I already got the Boge shocks from Roger, but $1200 in labor is a ton of money

if you go to harbor freight you can buy a spring compressor for about 35.00 then you can R n R your shocks the fronts are a bit harder to do, if you do the rears make sure to check the lower link pins ( the pin that passes through the lower shock mount) for true, roll em on a flat surface and use a good amount of anti seize when you refit them
