Thanks for all the nice thoughts - yes I am stoked about this car. As I said needs lots of TLC.
Paint - roof looks like it has been through a car wash too many times. Car will be repainted to a high standard at some point once I bring all the mechanicals up to date. Maybe something to do with the paint being water based?
Interior is pretty good but the drivers seat has some slight cracking - dash is cracked and so is the pod - more money heading to Rob Budd.

If you want to feel what a 928 feels like when the engine mounts are sitting on the cross member this is the car!!!

Once Sean gets the mechanicals up to snuff, ship that badboy GTS over to: RL'r: "kiln_red" for paint. One-two punch right there T

Well, there's a fella down in Texas who came up with a replacement for the mounts, using Volvo mounts. You might try to find him and see if he'll sell you some. He sells a few other odds and ends for these cars too.


:P

Seriously, nice acquisition. How many does that make?

Somehow, I get the feeling that you, like the neighborhood pusher, are your own best customer.

Great car. I was looking for a 95 blue GTS for a while before I ended up getting the last 94 GTS (also in Midnight Blue Metallic) made for the US market.

Congrats Rog - you need to get it sorted and drive it to Frenzy next year. Better than flying!

Nice car, Roger.

The 1995 GTS is not my favorite model, but it is the last one so it will remain important anyway.
Which one is it?

Pictures of the inside, please.
