It has had coolant pipes, cv axles, trans valve body, driveshaft and jxb support bearing, battery just done.
Interior is remarkable for a car with close to 200k.
The indy is a good guy, young, motivated. Pay for parts up front, $100 hr actual time. He provides a labor guarantee. Good find. He's got a following among the local exotic community, does a lot of 996/7 turbos and gt cars. I still do a lot of my own work but at 66 and with old injuries I don't care much for heavy mechanical work in the winter.

Congratulations! Pics when it comes back? What tires did you get?

I have to do all my fluids over Christmas break.
