Congrats to the seller and new owner. It looks like an awesome 928.

That car just needs clear turn and side clearance lenses. Very nice.

I think that car was on the market out of MD not too long ago, someone was familiar with the owner. IIRC. I remember the center caps, among other things...

The previous owner of the car, who installed the Murf928 kit, is a known Rennlister.

For the life of me I cannot remember his screen name

How in the hell did this guy/seller end up with this car? I'm pretty sure I know him, met him once. I looked at a Callaway 928 car he had for sale about 10 years ago. This guy is a real piece of work, let me tell ya. I met him with Jim Page and for some reason, Page really took a liking to this guy

I know the car and it really is a nice car. Last time I talked to the original owner he was having a hot start problem but other than that, nice. The car was in Delaware.

Interesting hose set-up for the timing belt covers.

I like the appearance..but painting the heat exchanger black makes me go hmm.

Delaware, MD, close enough for me....one less neuron to write off at this time...
