First 928 -The story(nightmare?)begins

I am a first time 928 owner now. I returned from a 1700 mile 2 day trip to bring in from NC to Miami to NC with a U-haul auto transport. It was a non runner so I had to winch it on and off. Only the excitement of the 928 kept me going(very tiring trip by myself). This car is what you call a basket case but I like what I got for the price. It has a lot of character and is fairly unmolested. It looked like I was hauling Mad Max's last of the V-8 interceptors back from Miami. I see what you guys are talking about as far as the interest people give the car on the road. Car was a lot worse in person than in the ad pictures(also very big). On the trailer it looked like a piece of old high tech military equipment with the primer/green and those beautiful shapes. Car is straight and honest. I have already gutted the interior(which is all leather by the way-headliner,1/4 int panels,etc) and found a bunch of oxidized German coins in it. Lots of moisture has been in there. I got a lot of extra stuff from the PO I'll photo later. I am exhausted but very content with my new project. It's going to be a challenge. 1982 928S Euro 5 SPEED (M28/11) RELATED INFO AND PICS= Porsche 928 april 27 2010 pictures by otif07 - Photobucket AND 1982 Porsche 928 Euro Spec AND http://forums.pelicanparts.com/porsche-928-technical-forum/532218-finally-started-but-still-need-help.html
