That was when I got bitten by the Porsche bug.
Buy it back. I think it's a great conversion - and someone went out a limb to do it during a time when everyone was parting '77s - or making them into some hideous backyard slantnose with vents and white gauges.

It saved the car for sure, and even seeing a '77 in this condition in 2018 is a treat.
