Default '85 for almost free in Honolulu

No affiliation. Except that I am working hard to NOT go buy it. Would make a lovely Geneva tribute car, don't you think.

Great deal, even for parts. I always love the "it ran when it was parked 4 years ago".

I'd love to have just the motor for that price, to put in my cab. But don't want to part out a salvageable car. Don't have time, space. Don't need a 4th 928 right now. Etc.

But don't assume its a bad deal because of the price. No market for 928s in Hawaii.

Wow , Would love to have a 928 for my home in Maui , but no place to work on it . a non-runner is hard to deal with

Terry, buy it, have it towed to my weekend place on the windward of oahu side, get it running there, then ship it to Maui. I'm betting that draining the tank, a fuel pump, and a battery has a 50% chance of getting it on the road. Only limitation is that you would not want it to sit long on the windward side as serious rust will start to set in almost instantly. Bigger problem would be possible back taxes. I asked about that, but got no answer. I'm guessing that means $1k plus in fees. Still you would save that and more on this car.
