Porsche Carnage
Glad you don't take me seriously. I have just seen too many bad conversions it seems. As I said previously, I am sure someone, somewhere has done it right. It doesn't surprise me that there MAY be a few good ones out there. There are exceptions to every rule it seems.
However, there are a LOT of aborted projects and the average conversion is not pretty Or well implemented IMHO. This could be the skill and expertise of the converting mechanic, as is the case with Jaguar conversions I will just stand with the statement that the time and money could be better spent. Continue the statement that an abandoned project is the place to start for saving dough and not violating an existing 928. Of course the pre - molested aborted projects are PRETTY scary, and so I can see Nancy girls running for the hills on that one.
I will Also maintain the opinion that it will take AT LEAST 8 grand, by the time you put a good motor in there and have it working right. As this nice man has done it, and apparently done it well, It seems reasonably accurate. That Doesn't include Labor, give that at least 200 hours of head scratching and down time securing parts. Probably more.
And PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! Finish what you start! It is so sad to see the projects come up for sale halfway through. So...Do what you want....But, KNOW what you are doing and don't quit half way (or less) through.
