Default Ruf TurboR

Just noticed that RAC has a 1997 TurboR conversion for sale. Thought I'd mention in case anyone is looking.

The conversion package itself did not include Ruf bodywork. It included work to the mechanicals. Anything beyond that was at the owners' option.

IIRC, we covered that one here a few months ago. I think it was Arena Red.

Geoff, you are correct, and all that was covered in the old thread back in July 2011.

I believe the one I am referring to is in Alberta not Manitoba and I think it is guards red not arena. not much details nor price.
