very nice catch! Judging by the music selections found in the car, it wasn't beat too bad either - probably driven pretty easliy!

You can flip the Viagra too. I think there is a street value.
Viagra, Michael Bolton, $10, and "Private Music", looks like a night full of action is in near future. Congrats!
Hey Mr. Morrison when are you going to find me a 86.5 5 speed?

Lots-o-records. There are way, way more under the pile, I just unfolded a few for the pic.

This thing was almost $50k new! And the P-car dealer allowed $32,449.95 for their '81 928 trade-in. I wonder what you'd get now

Feel free to (please do) delete the off topic thread mr. mod

Thanks mate! Hopefully the paint on mine will look 1/2 as nice as yours when my guy is done.

To think I was stressing about having to find a compressor... now I'm off the hook

Changed the hood and hatch struts all by myself. I read on the internet how to do it. Thank gawd the new style ones come without those stupid little wire clip things:



My gearhead friend Kim wondering just what the hell this thing is. The lack of an aftermarket cold-air intake has her flummoxed:
