Porsche 951/944 turbo with less than 70k on motor (126,826 miles on odometer – chassis and transmission), damage to passenger front, great project car!
Not a show car/garage queen. This car was meant to be converted to a street legal track-purposed 944 turbo. The car is currently stationary due to a physical obstruction to the passenger front tire (fender damage – see picture). It otherwise runs & drives. Prior to my purchase, the first owner seized the engine. I purchased a replacement motor from a donor ’88 944 turbo with 67k miles which was thoroughly gone over before installing. The chassis & transmission have 126,826 miles.
Previous modifications (does not include normal maintenance items):
- Porsche 968 style mirrors- wires are not connected
- Rear seat deletion – rear seats do not come with the car
- Door pockets removed – I may still have these and if so, will come with the car
- Lightweight carpet set
- Lightweight flywheel
- Shift boot replacement & cap
- New windshield
What will need repair or work will depend on your use of the vehicle:
- Front bumper and passenger front damage
- Superficial rust (small and easily repairable) in passenger and driver doorway, Rear bumper – see pictures
- Rear bumper guard (right)
- Headliner needs replacement
- Sunroof does not work – I have not had this diagnosed so I am unsure whether it is a simple or complex problem
- Needs windshield wiper motors
- Needs new battery
- Wire to rear window defroster severed and needs repair
- Tires have good tread however, manufacturing date was “4016” – these should be replaced for safety and state inspection
Accident information: The car was placed on a dealership lot as a consignment sale. There was an accident in the nearby intersection and my car was collateral damage due to the involved parties losing control of their vehicles. The dealership did not notify me of the damage in a timely manner and refused to pay for repairs. Hence, the superficial rust. To my untrained eye, damage appears cosmetic and not frame/chassis related. However, buyer should consider inspection prior to bidding.
