Default Got the 2nd turbo S in - anyone want some 18" Anteras? - Pics

Just got this car today. Shipped out Wednesday from TX - took a lot longer to get here than the other one. Anyways - this is one very used car. I'll let the pics tell the story 1988 944 turbo S with 150k purchased on ebay for $2800 and then paid another $775 to get it here. Definetly a parts car. I am going to swap on a spare control arm this evening so that I can roll the car around.

Looks like someone tried to dye the door panels while they were still on the car. Did they leave the torn up bumper cover on it?

Yup - but the only thing it is good for is what you need it for I think one of the turn signal assemblies it good too.

Nice wheels. Is that a new technique to reduce weight...removing some material on the inner portion of the wheel?

I would say that's one abused car! Good luck with parting it.

+1. I think that's the only downside to having these cars so cheap in the US. They're available to the wrong people.

Yup - I am not positive yet but I think this car might have had Neons under it at one time Found a whole bunch of various tools in the car (cheap ones) and also a stash of empty prescription bottles in the spare tire well with the owner's name on them.

Nice car! Is it bent behind the shock towers that you can tell?
