The Good - No cracked dash; dash was NEW 10 yrs ago in Porsche box. Seats were also done at the same time, no perforated inserts. New WX stripping too.
Everything works as it should - windows, sunroof, mirrors, wipers, rear wiper, A/C, heat, clock, cig lighter. Still has original stereo and cassette separators in glove box.
The bad - rear hatch remote release does not work. No tool kit or compressor - that's it.
New engine by JAB Racing (Jim and Bret*ski*) with less than 3k miles on it. This was the car and engine that was on VR website for a while when it was a 2.8L. Those from the 944 Turbo forum know Me. Engine block was sent to Duffin Engine in San Antonio for Alusil prep for 100.5 Mahle Ferroprint pistons (all of our previous engines or builds were done with Duffin). All new bearings and seals of course. LR II head with standard thickness Cometic gasket. New water pump and all belts, copper nuts on exhaust and turbo flanges. LR 2 pc crossover pipe, wrapped under oil pan for heat control. LR intercooler pipe, KLA strut brace. Vitesse Racing Stage II complete kit with SMT6 in glove box, with KONI **** for front shocks. Laptop and CD come with the car. Speed force SS exhaust. LSD transaxle with cooler and short shift, purchased long time ago from Tony G. Spec pressure plate and cup car disc for clutch on build. Mille Miglia 17" turbo twist replicas. Shod with Goodyear GS D3 F1 tires. Tires are 70%. Car is on VR 1 oil, and runs extremely cool on temps; as mentioned new water pump, hoses, thermostats.
Suspension is full Koni, up front Koni insert struts with adjustment on top. Rear Koni coil over, torsion bar removed. Spring rate is 500 up front and 400 rear but need to confirm with Jason at Paragon. 968 sway bars front and rear.
Title in the safe, no paint work from PO or me.

Thank you. I know sometimes "modified" scares some away but this has been so reliable. We've done 4 of these modified builds with either Lindsey or Vitesse components and all those cars are still on the road. I disconnect the battery when I'm traveling and I hide the key so my son isn't tempted LOL. If it hasn't sold by the time I get home, I'll put a couple of videos up, start up and driving.
