    Sure, what kind of shape are they in? As for the tank mount, it's either get one made up or scavenge an old one and refinish it (sandblast and stoneguard).

    Hey,

    Got a fuel tank mount that isn't rusty as hell? I was taking mine off for refinishing but it looks too rusted out to save. I have an 87 S4, do you have just OB's for parts? I don't know if the tank mount varied at all in the production line or if they're all the same shape and mounting points.

    This style is what i'm looking for, i always thought it was used as both a tranny cooler for auto's and an engine oil cooler... they label it as a transmission oil cooler but it would work for engine oil as well. It would be placed on top of the radiator like the external ones on 90+ are mounted.

    Hey Matt those 928s you saw in the east end are prolly all mine I live just outside London on the east side I usually take one or two to the cruise nights on sunday nights at the CT. What kind of oil cooler are you looking for? I have a bunch here I picked up at swap meets. Make a list of what you need I have access to a couple parts cars....

    Hey man,

    Cool! It's always nice to know there are actually a few 928 owners around here. I have seen 928's in London, a silver OB cruising down Oxford St, a red OB, and a gold OB, all spotted around East London. I am looking for a decent external oil cooler, i don't know if you're an early 928 guy or what. When i have all my new parts ordered and ready to go, i might invite the local 928 guys such as yourself over to help out. I would probably have a BBQ and buy some beer for the occasion, i have such short breaks to work on my car that i usually have a hard time remembering what parts i took off and what needs to be done. My 87 S4 is in Singhampton at my parents place, and i'm here in London in a small appartment working at London City Chrysler.

    Pleased to meet you
    Matt

    Hi,
    I see from the Rennlist site you are located in London, ON. I recently joined the 928 forum, and am currently looking for a 928 to drive and rebuild at the same time. I'm just north in Exeter area, and going to GTA to see a couple 928s this weekend. My main problem is I'm 6'8"/230lbs, so trying to find out if I fit first of all. Do you think my height can fit in the 928?
    Thanks,
    Allan R.
