Awesome Interior for your Awesome Resto

I have got to say that as I go through this stuff, I have forgotten how much great stuff I have. It is to the point now that as I catalog everything, I am starting to consider pulling this back from sell and doing a Turbo tor S2.
The original plan was to do a LS1 V8 conversion. I have everything for that including a LS1 that is clean as a whistle sitting on the stand. I only stopped because the smog ****'s of California crushed me with their requirements.
I sold all of the conversion parts last week, except for the engine and the modified oil pan as it is already on the engine.
Now, I am left with all of the Porsche stuff. I haven't even started listing the under hood parts and brake and suspension stuff.
I floated the notion of doing just a straight 944 build to my wife last night. She asked what I was going to do with the Turbo sitting on the side of the house. Unfortunately, I have already sold the engine. At this point, it is cheaper to buy another running project and part out (or keep for parts) the one I have.
I have my V8 fix with my M5 now, but it is a totally different driving experience than the 944.

You have all the very expensive and nice stuff sitting there. An engine is cheap relatively speaking. If I were you, I would buy an engine and get her going. Every time I decide to sell my car, I drive it and fall back in love with it (this is after 13 years with it).

This is a great buy! You don't see Robert's work come up for sale often. He did the work in both of my cars. I am hoping my buddy buys this from you, but spending is not his forte!

Just wanted to say I met Ted today and bought a number of these parts. He's a good guy and all of his parts were exactly as described! If you are thinking of buying any of his remaining parts (and he has a lot) consider this a 5 star review.
