None.

But if I have 25+ to pay for one of THESE cars, it's headed for the 2-day process in Georgia or Phila. or Mass. if at all possible.

If you ever think "we" are going overboard with the 928, take a peak over the fence:

Unless we run into a problem we do it on every other cylinder.

Hey Greg, sell him your 928. Then you can buy a P-car like the Polecat.

Crap Joe, even if he paid me a lot more than it is worth I would still be upside down in it.

I guess I did "OK" for a pawn shop car. Mine hasn't been a money pit, like some.

It could be a GT. I'm near enough that if anyone is interested I'll go over and have a look-see at it.

Yup. We haven't settled on a better estimate. It's very easily a full day if you've never ever seen the car before. Add a couple of hours for an automatic (for the flex plate.) There are a lot of car-to-car differences that can add or subtract an hour or more. For instance - if the 928 in questions has some big wheels you can inspect brakes with a mirror. But, if it's got stock manhole covers then the wheels have to come off.

Thanks Doc. I'd be interested if a GT. Ive texted the O re vin #. I'm zeroed in on a GT now, 90 or 91 black or white. At this time I've seen 3 for sale all white. Hoping to find one that has demonstrated maintenance or a lower price so I can get er dun. All 3 of the ones above have been damaged. Just waiting to find the right one.

The wheels and single tip exhaust suggest S4, but worth a look anyway.

As a 5sp 89, I would be interested no matter GT or not. The collect-ability is still quite high.

If you're stuck on a GT, I have a red/tan 90 that I would sell, but it's not turn-key condition.

The best explanation ever as to why men give their cars female names.
