1987 Porsche 944 951 Turbo

Hello, am offering up for bid my partially restored red 1987 Porsche 944 951 Turbo. I was restoring this car for one of my sons and he decided to go in another direction; so we stopped. I have receipts for the rebuild plus the Lindsey kits, tc. that total over $10,000 not counting the car itself. I don't know when, ut I believe the 944 Turbo will have its day to rise in value as other older Porsche's have. You can finish this project or it would be a great parts car with all the new parts that have been installed and the overall mechanical condition.

Please feel free to ask me any questions.

Sellers Notes: You can see a lot was put into the car to this point; no expense was spared for the above listed work. What I write below is what was on my list to do but has not been done.

• The AC compressor is there but needs to be replaced
• The motor works for the sunroof but does not open
• Most of the body looks really good but there are several areas that need help. The clear coat is coming off on the roof area, couple of dents shown and there is an area of rust behind the front left tire (See pictures)
• The alternator was not replaced but did work when the rebuild was done
• The shifter linkage needs to be tightened up. It works and shifts but it is sloppy and loose.
• Window tinting is all the way around, ut the back rear glass needs to be redone.
• The arm rest is there but is broken/detached
• Although the electric adjustable bucket seats have been professionally re-upholstered, n some areas the interior would still need attention
