Talking Bought one ALREADY

Well looks like we add a Porsche 928 to the collection.
Year 1984
Miles 50,074
VIN:WP0JB0926ES862945
Gold with Burgundy Leather
Will be doing a COMPLETE rework of all the leather, clean, condition, redye PLUS repair the cracks in the DASH and redo the carpets. This will all be filmed and available on DVD when we are done.
Bought this Porsche for ME and the wife to enjoy and take to functions.
It has some issues like NO BRAKES? Will run if either is spryaed but then dies (fuel system)
No all I need is a full set of service manuals and all will be GREAT.
Price was, well lets just say worth the money. We will post pictures as soon as we pick the car up in Florida.

Don't bother looking for manuals in book form unless your willing to spend more than what you payed for the car. Download or CD format of all volumes is the best way to go.

That's very good advice.

Amazon seller is just burning duplicates of the CD Jim Morehouse did all work of collecting manuals and scanning in the pages. If you don't want to pay Jim for his work, you can download the same information from two sources free.

Amazon will also refund your money when you tell them its counterfeit product.

A paper copy of the manuals are VERY handy, best to just keep and eye out for a set and buy them when you can.

Congrats on buying the finest car ever made.

Wish I would have known. This is the problem with the cyber thing. My dad did an article on Leather and didn't it show up on a competitors website with a sentence changed.
I have found a full set, Hard copy and the guy will sell me it along with a parts car, another 1984 for $1,000. I will be sending the copy BACK to amazon.
I do find some nice things with our business and out customers are the best when I need information on something.
This one is for us and so my wife can drive a Porsche instead of just riding around in one.
