The $3500 968

Hi everyone,

I though I'd start a thread about my somewhat recently acquired 92 968 coupe. It's black with 6 speed and 17" Cup I wheels. I purchased it for $3500 back in February and have put a few thousand miles on it. It's a great car and I love driving it! It has 211,000 miles on it, with head work done about 40,000 miles ago for a failed timing belt. Which also means it's past due for new belts.

A few pics:





Time for some much needed maintenance, adios "$3500 Porsche!"
Tools, timing belts, rollers and tensioners:

Power steering pump rebuild kit:

R-134 AC conversion kit:

Just because, Momo Competition wheel:


And not pictured, but equally important, new water pump, gasket, and thermostat, as well as a new front crank seal.

At this point, the timing set and water pump is removed and I'll begin reassembly today. Then next week, I have an appointment for a new windshield. Good thing for insurance, because that's nearly $1400! Clutch will be next once I stop financially bleeding.

Anyway, I'll post some more as time goes by. Cheers!

Jeremy
