914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Need help from someone in San Diego

Posted by: Rockaria Jan 16 2005, 09:08 PM

Hello Everyone,

I have bought a 924s from someone in San Diego. The guy might be able to bring it to me in Las Cruces, But just in case I was wondering if someone in the area could pick it up for me and hold it a few days for a truck to come and get it.

The cars engine has broken valves and does not run, so you would need a trailer.

I would be glad to reimburse for all trouble and add some extra bucks. I would feel a lot better trusting someone from this list that we all know than someone I don't.

Once I get more information I will let you know. Basically I need someone at first to make sure the car and title actually exist. Once that is good I will pay the guy and the car should be ready to go.

Thanks in advance,

at least it was a 924S. I like those.

Expect a large engine repair bill! Unless you're doing it yourself... then you can expect only a medium-large repair bill...

Best idea: Get on the Bird Board and look for those selling a 951 engine & trans, or get a 944 roller with a good engine IPB Image

I'm in the SD area. I could do the legwork on title/car verification.

Not sure if its worth the trouble for a 924 though... IPB Image

So what is the general consensus on the 924? I know the engine was an Audi and underpowered, like the 914. There is one for sale locally and I may go look at it. Needs a little body work and has been parked for about 6 or 8 months. What would say it would be worth? Really.
