Judging from that photo alone, it looks as though the bonnet had experienced a fire originating from the fresh air fan area? Look at the highlighted area in your photo. Looks like things got a little hot there.

I'm going to get more pics when the weather is good. If the project is worth the effort, I plan on doing a good bit of the work myself. That being said, if I put $30k into it plus the cost of the car, is there value on the other side? I'm looking for something the keep as a project for my son and I, but I don't want a money pit.

Am I wrong to be concerned about the rust around windscreen? Seems like that would be a huge pain and expensive to fix. What else should be I looking for?

I'm thinking this car, as she sits, is maybe worth $15k?

Does anyone know where to find the fog light lens replacements. I cannot seem to find them.

Of course the most glaring problem is that the car is NOT a genuine factory made Slantnose in spite of the apparent presence of several factory components.

The sales manager definitely sounds convinced that the car is authentic by his frequent references to a number of verifiable clues provided by two local "PCA experts" (a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing). His persuasive sales pitch will be of little consolation to the unsuspecting purchaser when he/she learns the truth about his/her "real factory built" Slantnose Turbo. Note the dealership's warranty paragraph where it holds itself harmless from any and all misrepresentations:
"The seller shall not be responsible for the correct description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty in connection therewith."

How could you tell this was not a Factory Slant Nose. He had me fooled.

Hi gang,
I think I will try this here first.
My neighbor has a 1988 Porsche 930S Turbo - factory slant 505 code, custom factory color-venetian blue, linen interior with 35,942 original miles. I b
He has some crap going on in his business right now and feels maybe he needs to sell this car. He doesn't have time right now and asked if I would put out feelers since he knows I am active in the Porsche community.
I don't think you will steal this car but I think he will be fair in price.
If you are interested you can pm me and I will give you his contact information.
Thanks,

Time for a monthly bump....

Don't know about the rest of you guys, but Winter has been a Motha'. Here in Nothern Wisconsin, if it hasn't been snowing, it's been brutally cold. Too cold to run the furnace in the garage expense-wise.

Did you get my email I sent you a few days back? I want it

Pleased to have found a decent thread on the Slantnose cars. I have had mine for around 9 years and have only just stumbled across your posts!

My car is a 1986 Special Wishes Programme car originally delivered new to Porsche Centre Jeddah in Saudi. It is special order Ferrari Rosso Corsa Red and had the side sills and front wing slats deleted.

Will look forward to browsing all the case history. I have relied heavily on Barry Smith at PCGB for assistance on various matters Turbo SE and so it is nice to see some of his work collated here.

Dave-
Beautiful car! How about additional photos inside and out?

[torresmd]

I was told that my 1986 Slantnose was a special wishes car. How does one go about proving that? Did your car come with any documentation regarding this?
