Just closed the deal on this 1987 Carrera. This has the G50 transmission. PPI results from the engine (leakdown and compression) were perfect. Needs some minor TLC. Scotty...get your paint gun ready! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Sorry for the crappy pictures...pick it up next Friday when the seller gets back in town from the Holidays.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) I'm not a targa fan...really wanted a coupe. But, with a documented engine and transmission rebuild (less than 10,000 miles) I couldn't say no!

Has SSI's and Ansa.

No chip, though.

Heavy dent on rear passenger fender well. That's where you come in. Original paint..no signs of any previous accident damage. Perfect dash. Needs carpet. Seats are marginal.
