Fascinating to know that this is how it all began. Parts shouldn't be too much a problem for ya this go round.

The seller advertises he will pick me up but I've yet to hear from him.

Could be pouting from a lower than expected close. (Note that sellers on eBay motors can delete negative feedback - best to leave neutral if he cancels the sale.)

You should let me make a 55psi (S4 FPR) chip for it, before you drive it back. It should be a quick conversion from my existing '85-'86 32V chipset. I have a spare S4 knock sensor valley plug waiting for it (courtesy of GB).
I could probably even convert it to use a S3 LH, with an O2
Someone needs to be a guinea pig so we can get PorKen to make us a special chip

I think you may be right Ken. I wonder if he will leave a negative feedback on me as I have not sent his deposit as I planned on paying in full when i picked it up. I was prepared to be there in less than 24 hours from closing as per his request.

As long as you are trying to contact him through the ebay auction, I think you are OK, but why not go ahead and make the deposit via whatever since they are new inexperienced seller.

I would not let him off the hook so easy, do the deposit just be patient until after the first.
OTOH you must hold the record for number of 928's purchased, so ...

I just got this message from the seller.
"Message from merchant: HI Mark: I just got back into my shop after being away for a week and found that someone had broken in and stolen some things and took the 928 out for a joyride apparently, and wrecked the interior. Car is at insurance adjusters now, I apologize..
