Snipe, you might want to buy the DVD that I am selling so you can get up to speed. The 4.7L Euro cars started in 1980 and made 300HP. The 84-86 4.7L Euro cars were rated at 310 but speculation was that they were closer to 330...

There are MANY 80-84 Euro S 4.7L 300+HP cars in the US... 5spds AND autos. I could be wrong on this one (Roger at 928sRus could tell us for sure) but my impression was that the Weissach cars were only for the US markets and that the Jubilee cars were the special cars for the ROW market... Thus a Jubilee car will be a gray market car if it is in the US the Weissach cars will be full US spec 4.5L 219HP cars...

I hope they GAVE you that car because it is really worth about $0 not running and with a RUINED interior. It was in fact the interior that was the ONLY thing (other than the luggage) that made a Weissach car special and as noted to fix that and make it RIGHT would probably be $10k on the interior ALONE... Paint to do it RIGHT (though you are already missing the rear hatch glass...BONUS there) would be another $6k without even blinking... Then you still don't have a running car...

That car running, driving and in good presentable condition but FAR from show quality is a $9k car AT MOST and probably A LOT LESS. With the luggage in good condition and if the car itself was fully functional and close to excellent condition might be a $12k car to the right person who is looking for that specific thing.

This is a project for someone who can do all the paint, interior and mechanical work themselves and LOVES 928's and has nothing better to do.

You are AT LEAST $25k away from having a $10k car...
