Not always the biggest fan of brown, but this looks pretty cool. Would be great if it had some funky retro Pasha interior.

This thing is YUM all over the place!

Still has the factory orange peel.

Someone went a little crazy with a black rattle-can underneath.

Looks like it may still have it's original air filter.

Curious if the original wheels have the original P7's on them (doesn't look like it).

Ansa muffler, ick.

Will be following this one closely. Thanks DougM.

I like this car alot. This brown is one of my favorite period colors for the 928. Looks just like the wrecked one Tass just sold, except his has the pascha.

Never heard of the dealer (Tekay-Intl)...they are supposedly here in WA... Also never seen the car on the local 928 circuit..or even the local PCA ...but there are quite a few hidden gems in the garages around here (as Kie (and now James) can attest to)..

Looks really nice... It'll be interesting to see what it sells for..

I'd name it Dracula (or maybe Chocula)--it's never seen the sun. Even the odometer looks new and doesn’t have the dingy yellow color. Bought from original owner--wow. Great e-bay presentation too.

I love chocolate, and I love cork interiors on 928s. I don't recall ever seeing such a perfect cork leather interior in a 928.

That is just all kinds of deliciousness.

On a side note-I had to stay in a hotel this week for work, and I was put randomly in room 928. HELL YES! It's been a good week.

Default Venture a guess?

So what do you ya'll think? My guess is the reserve is set higher than what the market will bear.

With that said, anyone want to venture a guess what the high bid will be?



On another note, this car could be made 100% original with ease.
I see the most difficult being removing the black spray paint off all the undercarriage bits. And finding a rear muffler.

Kermit had a cork color along with pascha, at least that is my memory when I examined it years ago.

This is an amazing color combo and excellent presentation. If all 928's were kept in this conditon, the prices would be where they should be relative to 911's, 308's, and TR's of the period. Cork seats with black interior for my re-do.

Thanks for posting.
