Car has been for sale for quite a while, the dealer has been raising price.

Might be worth a shot if the Dealer can document and will guarantee the mileage. Not perfect, but, it is also not priced in the Marshall Goldman price range either.

It's an early (1979 vs 1980 production run) CA build US '79 MY 930. And, yes the headlight washers are correct for this VIN.

If the big things (Body/Drive Train/Suspension) check out, the radio and the associated audio fixes will probably be your biggest challenge if you are looking to go back to stock. The rest depends on what you can live with or want to correct. PPI is money well spent unless you're an early 930 expert.

Well to start with it has incorrect speedo, I would highly doubt mileage is verifiable but it's worth investigating. I inquired when car was first posted for sale and salesman was not an expert on 930's.

looks a bit odd with the 8" wheels on the front.

fronts should be 7".
