I'm not sure you're going to gain much traction by posting that here.. mainly because there are better causes out there to donate to rather than helping fund a porsche restoration.

You should post up in the 930 turbo forum with pictures of the car and your plans. If you want help on what you should do first to get it running there are threads you can search and guys more than willing to answer any questions on that topic. There's probably pelican members in your area that would to help you out since not everyone is mechanically inclined, but at least willing to give it a shot. Hell if you're in Denver I'd stop by and have a look and let you know the things I went through earlier this year to get mine running.. These cars aren't terribly hard to work on, and there is a thread out there with detailed pictures and instructions most likely on whatever you're trying to do. If there isn't post your question..it will be answered in no time.

Hope that helps.

Sell the car sounds like you can't afford it

Is this a good time to bring up my EFI project?

Post some pictures in turbo charging section. We would like to see what you found.

A 1988 930 barn find? Sure. Try posting a pic of the actual car if you want people to believe. That photo is not a barn find and unfortunately anybody whose grammar is that bad is not an owner of an '88 930. Nor his kid.

I find rather amazing that a turbo was found in Nigeria and someone is trying to restore it.

Man, what if we all were trying to get hand outs to build cars... We all would have a dozen 911s.

Right, I'm donating to help someone restore a 930 because dad had one. I have an idea...sell the car and use the proceeds to buy a nice little 911sc. That's if you are real. But I bet you are a Nigerian prince with all your money stuck in a foreign bank.

Wow that totally smells of a scam, but even if not, why should anyone donate to his sports car resto. I'd love to have strangers pay for my car resto too!!

Let me assume for a minute that this is not a scam but that this story is true...

Dear Arctic9967 (the OP),
You sound like a Millennial - "give me free stuff."
Grow up. Get your own money (get a job, start a business, make an investment, etc.). Live within your means. Take care of yourself. Become a man. Either that or become a Libertard Democrat Socialist and go on unemployment and welfare until you are old enough for Social Security.
Sincerely,
Self-made Man

Hmm - is it a scam or not? I'm not sure which is worse.

Please let's not turn this into a political soapbox.
He's either an idiot, or deluded.

A few years ago - or 4 months ago barn find as indicated in the gofundme listing?
