Default parting out an 88 turbo

so i've decided to part out my one-owner baby to try and recoup some costs.

ideally, someone will buy the entire thing as a complete parts car but i'm not sure if anyone is willing to pay enough for it.

send me a PM if you're interested in any parts or want to buy the whole thing.

the car is 100% STOCK with genuine porsche factory parts. no LSD, no m030, no ABS. it does have all other options. it is currently garaged indoors. it last dyno'd at 247whp about two months before the wreck with APE chips.

shipping will be from seattle, washington, usa. i might be able to personally deliver parts if you're local. come pick it up yourself for cheaper.

sold: front bumper, batwing, foglight housing, front parking light housing, wheels

taking bids on: dashboard

Probably helped if you posted the link as well, I don't follow every rennlist thread. That clears it up.

Does the car have LSD?

EDIT--Stupid me, I should probably read the ENTIRE post before I ask questions.

Are those wheels any good still? How about the spindles? I could possibly use 87+ spindles on my 944 project. Turbocharger? What kind?

If you have the M490 speaker option (10 speakers) I'll donate for the front and rear interior panels.

Also, I got dibs on the dash if it's in good shape! of course, why would it be since surely the airbags went off in that thing...

how about the seats? and what color is the interior?

danny; no 10speakers, the dash is mint (airbags never deployed, car garaged its entire life) but someone else already has first dibs on them. how much do they go for anyway? because i've gotten more than 8 inquiries about the dash already so i'm considering bidding it out.

the seats are tan (porsche calls them 'saddle') and someone else already has first dibs. something unique about these seats is that the entire rear seats are all leather as well, including the top fold-down part.

nice, full leather huh? I'd guess you could get $500 for the dash at least. Probably much more...

There will be a set of flanges in the middle of the crossover pipe. It allows for turbo removal with the intake manifold on, and easier clutch jobs. However, sinec my turbo seems good as new, and I'm half-way through a clutch job, my motivation is primarily 'because my car should have one'. Somebody installed an 86 motor, with the 1 piece crossover pipe on it into my car....

Don't suppose you cross the border often, and could ship greyhound?

I completely understand. When you get it down to chassis and want to lose the wheels though, I'm very interested. Please let me know what you want for them - I'm in no hurry, so whenever you get to it I'll be waiting for 'ya. Ditto on the spindles.
