Default Searching for particular 993 cab...if you find any, please let me know

Long story short, I'm looking for a 993:

Not negotiable:
  • 1995-1998
  • Cab
  • Manual (as in 6 speed, not Tip)
  • NO wood dash etc.
  • BEAUTIFUL and shiny, great shape, including top & window, or price reflects room to replace them
  • NOT: White, silver, polar, green, light blue, yellow
  • Clean, story free
VERY strongly prefer, almost but not quite non-negotiable
  • Dark blue such as Midnight Blue Metallic or perhaps Zenith Blue. Not sure on Iris Blue
  • Cashmere interior (I have very expensive and painful to get made custom seats from my recently gone 993).
  • Power seats
Would be great to have, but I'm not stupid and won't turn down if the above are met:
  • Performance suspension such as JIC, PSS 9 or 10, etc.
  • Euro Turbo/S nose
  • Great wheels such as Roock, RH 3.6, etc.
  • Recalls (cab top motors & wiring harness) complete
  • Top end done if it was an issue
I'm looking at the usual suspects:
  • Cars.com
  • Autotrader.com
  • Sloan
  • Weissach
  • Holt
  • Premier
  • Willhoit
  • Rennlist classifieds
  • PCA classifieds

If you come across anything, please let me know.

Thanks,

Pretty selective but you might be lucky.

Did you check out Truspeed motors? Did you think of/try selling the seats? If I see something I will let you know. P.S. Do you mind telling where you got your seats and what is special about them? - Glenn

Pics of them in my sig link. Long story short, organized a group buy on RL through FVD (great shop, issues were not their doing). Arranged for cashmere beige leather to come from Porsche in Germany to Recaro in North America to recover a Sport Topline seat to perfectly match my interior (I looked into recovering here, dying, etc., and this was coming out better).

Recaro screwed up the first set, used up the leather, had to have more sent over and start over. They screwed it up I think 2 more times but were able to still use the leather. Finally after a full year, I was able to get the seats in. IMHO, gorgeous, but total PITA. Recaro apparently stopped doing custom seats after that or at least recovering in leather they didn't normally use.

No affilliation, but local to me. Color looks Iris Blue to me, not purple. Price is nice.
