The car I wanted since I was 13
Here are a few photos of my car. She's an old lady, but has good bones and I'm enjoying giving her the attention she has been missing for the last 4 years, when the last owner had her in storage. [Edited as requested] She is a 1983 928s, all original with 810 Ruby Red Metallic paint and matching interior. The engine is the 4.7l Euro 16v and the transmission is the 3 speed auto. About the only non-original parts are the stereo and the later model 16x8 rear rims, which are off a more recent car.

Thanks team. Work completed so far includes replacing all 4 tyres, all filters, all fluids, the cam belt, headlight bulbs (expensive H4 units!), masses of small remedial jobs involving fuses, bulbs and such, removing a spot of rust above the fuel cap and fitting some LED daytime running lights.
She makes some funny noises at times (whining from the 3 speed transmission I think) and doesn't want to kick down when I floor the loud pedal, but mostly she's good fun.

Very very nice! Love the color, interior and exterior. Something about the cars in various shades of red metallic appeals to me.
