Great looking car what are the colors?? Both in and out??
The engine bay looks very tidy as well.
Note your aircleaner is upside down, for the next filter.
I just noticed something else, it looks like the motor is a bit lower than the crosmember this indicates worn motor mounts, just an FYI .
Your car does look terrific

There is a car exactly like this one close to Arlington. same year, color, no rubstrips and a 5 speed. I wish I could buy it when it was for sale.
Also, thats one of my favorite colors on an OB.

Hello All;

Thanks for the kind praise of my 928. It had 33,000 when I got it. The car is indeed in good shape except for some minor issues mostly cosmetic and electrical gremlins like draining the battery that I have to chase down. Minor leak from the clutch line and a minor misfire. It is indeed platinmetallic with the dark brown interior. The interior is great except that the seats are dried out from being a desert car. It also has been repainted, a very mice job too! The engine bay and under body are very clean, symbolic of a car that has not seen rain, salt or road grime for that matter. It would be untouched if the PO had not removed the converter for a straight pipe and then replaced the converter before selling it. Overall a good car!
