Ken - Whey aye Man! I am with Stan that engine bay is one of the best I have seen - more please.

Who needs an Iso Grifo anyway - you have a 928

..., thanks too Roger, almost forgot you are a fellow "Geordie", you never loose it, great heritage ! . The imortal words of Jimmy Carter spring to mind when he visited Newcastle and discovered the phrase " Howay the lads ! "

BTW, odometer wheel you sent did a great job !

Texted the guy. Told him I could send money now and pay balance when I pick it up. Can't get there till late Oct w/ my schedule. Looks like he is not going for it. Maybe he will change his mind if no one buy's.

..., just out of curiosity, does anyone know what the large cannister with two hoses exiting are for, just to the left and below the cross brace ?

I suspect that canister is full of worms, whatever you do... don't open it!
Here's a picture of my 1980 Euro (928A0800107) 4.5 engine compartment. I guess my PO removed the "can of worms" after he opened it under the hood. I removed the Aux Air Valve when it caused a start/stop condition. Haven't found a good reason to put a new one on it yet. I'm sure that day is coming.
