Pictures fixed.

I forgot about this one, which was my first business sale. Anyone who says the 986/996 doesn't last has no idea what they are talking about. This one had 135k. Records since new, original IMS, no major work, and clutch lasted until 130k. Other than the shocks being tired it was still a REALLY fun car to drive. The 1997 986 is the lightest of the bunch at around 2700 lb without a lot of the features added later, like side airbags. A base car like this one would be a really fun lightweight roadster project. Convert the top to manual, install some lightweight sport seats, delete the radio and some of the other unnecessary bits, throw on some nice lightweight wheels, I bet 2500 lb is doable while still retaining A/C, cruise, etc. That's definitely on my future project list.
