I plan on doing all the work on my basket case myself using help from the internet and a brother that can paint. I plan on rebuilding/cleaning parts and buying used. I would think 40k would be to pay someone else to do everything while buying all new parts from Porsche to get it back in perfect concours condition. Not many go that route. I may be way off base here due to my lack of experience, but 40k to get it in nice shape sounds crazy high and unrealistic for the average restore usually done on these forums IMHO. ------HEY MPDANO. How much have you spent. 40K?

The key is if you'll be doing the work yourself.
The 928 is not an easy or fun car to work on. It is built like an onion....in layers.
If you're paying a mechanic to fix it for you, you could find yourself broke very quickly. Never, ever buy parts from the dealer. Stick with the big 3 928 suppliers.
