1978 5sp on its way today
Just picked up this today. Been stored inside the past 12 years with fuel injection issues. Very original (minus the aftermarket side strips) and very complete.
Original exhaust, luggage cover, radio, metal gas cap, tools but it looks like the seat centers have been replaced.
VIN is 9288200727

If you part it out, which I hope you don't, l'm interested in the radio and surround.

I'm not sure what will happen with it. First off I will try to get it running and driving and take it from there but I agree it should be restored. It may even be one owner. I need to run a car fax to find out

Both of mine are daily drivers, but I drive the 81 mostly now as it has working AC and with the +100F heat we have been having I need it.
I'm sure your 928s will get back to creating havoc on the highway again. They just take time, plus life gets in the way
I can't guarantee that it would end up looking like Minerva any time soon but I can ensure that it would be mechanically sound and reliable.
A perfect driver if you will.
