Picked up and 89 today. Needs some TLC but, feel I got it for a decent price to justify what needs to be fixed.

Not sure why some of the photos are in their side. Annoying.

Anyways, I also have a 996TT that's just about finished to my liking and always need a project going on. Figure this shark will fit the bill nicely.

I went to Frenzy last year to do some homework. I always go to Hershey!

However, this year I'll have a choice to make!

You mention a good price considering what's wrong with it. So what's wrong with it? I'm curious what kind of trouble you're in.

Looks nice in pictures though!

Lost of small stuff. The largest being the internal fuel pump is failing(per prior owner) Car doesn't run right, currently.
But the list is a follows;
1)All tail light bulb sockets need to be replaced(probably just order 2 harnesses)
2)Coolant overflow is cracked
3)Key light button on the dash locks doors but doesnt unlock
4)Driver power seat button is broken
5)Dash lights are dim
6)Needs upper intake manifold refresh
7)Oil flanking both sides of the thermostat housing
8)Window guides worn
9)Rear brakes need replacing


Probably more things I'm forgetting
