I went to look at the car in person last week. He's done some of the mechanicals, but it still needs to be thoroughly gone through. What I like about the car is that it is a complete original Arizona car with original paint (actually in pretty good shape except for a couple of spots on the driver door and front valence) and no rust at all. Yeah, the interior needs a lot of clean-up and new upholstery, but I can do that a little at a time after I get the engine and tranny properly serviced, and I can drive it while I'm doing the cosmetic work. I understand that you can get into a 924 (or 944) and easily put more into the car than you could ever re-sell it for down the road. Honestly, that wouldn't be a first for me (or probably most other Pelicans). I particularly like this car because of the originality of the body (no hidden horrors), the fact that it's a dry Arizona car, and the fact that it's a fairly rare Turbo. The ad has been on Craigslist for a few weeks now, and I don't think the seller has gotten many bites. I'm thinking about offering $1500 this coming weekend.
Have a great Chrismmas everyone
