The wheels look like the correct 87. 86 has a deep dish ( can run Fuchs) and that is the reason many prefer them over later cars

Thank you all. I do plan on driving her. So far I heard some clunking from the front and looks like I need to do a wheel bearing job. Just charged the R12 AC...finding someone with those cans was very hard to do. She also gets a little hot...a little south of the top white mark on the gauge I did add some coolant and water wetter and I did have to bleed the coolant valve and some air did hiss out. Water pump, water hoses and gaskets were done by Porsche in 2005. 300 miles on her since then. I would like to get a water temp gauge, boost gauge and An AFR gauge from VDO that will light up when exceeding the limit but looks original. I checked the fuel lines and they look great no hoses are looking like they are cracked. it was definitely a garage car. I am trying to avoid the itch of modding her out right way. Here are some pictures from Orlando cars and coffee.
