If he takes an out of state, three party, post-dated check written on a napkin in crayon I'll take it.

sort of looks like the stack of 928 parts I hauled to the junk yard last year. $400 for scrap and I was happy with that.....I offered the parts for free locally (Houston area) and the one fellow who called wanted me to guarantee them as good parts (for free?)

Garage full of parts - Debi is the seller - it may be easier if they are all itemized - anyone local want to help Debi out and sell the parts by doing an inventory??
Lot of good parts from what I remember.

Seems to be parts off disassembled '80 Euro 5sp, Plus a parts collection that was part of 'building out' that 928.

I talked to Debi this morning Roger, and I'm trying to help her out. I'm not in it for much of anything. At minimum, I would be nice to buy the first aid kit.

She has a plan and is preparing to inventory the 'low hanging fruit'.

The rad is used but professionally rebuilt.

This sounds like an estate sale...never an easy situation. Just think how your wife would view your treasures....if she believed what you had always told her as you spent the money or if you never shared that information...like I said never easy.

$30,000? Like in 5 to 10 good running 928? I have 928 and 928S4 parts that includes heads, block, interior, S4 body w title, etc etc that I can't even sell for a grand. Agreed that a list may get buyers attention but as of now the price seems very steep.

I believe the seller understands the price is irrelevant.

talked to her, it might be a challenge buying from her as she is not very mechanically inclined as far as I could tell and will need a LOT of help from YOU when you describe what you need. Even if she DID know what she was looking for it will be very hard for her to find it scattered through a garage in boxes and barrels. VERY NICE LADY THOUGH!!!

Not an estate sale but a divorce split.
Ex was a local 928 owner with a green Euro with side pipes. Russ was his first name but I can't remember his Rennlist handle.
