1982 Porsche 928, My New Baby...

 

Congrats on the new '82.

Looks straight and complete, which is half the battle.

Bet that engine compartment will clean up nicely. How does it run?

 

Yep, I'd much rather a good coating of 30 year old engine bay grime, than something tarted up with armorall and poor workmanship. Neglect generally fvcks stuff up less

Welcome to the tank!

(ps - interesting cars in the background )

 

Nice cleanup job ahead. Good luck and keep us posted!

 

Welcome

 

welcome to the tank!

 

Welcome!

 

Enjoy... Welcome .... Everyone's been really helpful as I'm still pretty new.
Can't wait to see the progress

 

This is perfect. Worth saving; she really needs you; you will bond like no tomorrow. Fish on!

 

Nice project! Didn't realize you are so close. Monterey Park... I think I can see it from my back yard.


First steps need to include some serious clean-up. After you get the initial fuel system issues nailed. Clean makes it easier to assess condition, easier to find leaks, and for sure less of a chore to work on. I can clearly see the ful rail cap where the gauge will connect, even through the ten years of protective dust, so there's hope.

Looks like a fun project for sure. Keep the thread updated with progress reports and pictures as you bring this one back from the brink.

 

Congrats on your purchase, it looks like a nice little cleaning project is forth coming. How's the interior look ?

 

What's the interior look like?

Good luck.

 

Go get'em.
Best Wishes.

 

Welcome!
I can see many many hours of enjoyable clean up/refurb work here.(It would be for me, i love to clean stuff on my shark!)
5sp or Rogerbox?

Cheers,

 

Nice starting point. You have a 'competition package' car I think. Upgraded (bilstein) shocks, shorter ratio tranny, S breaks, and a few other twists.
