Well.
I was working on a deal to buy a 914 from a seller right here on world when I looked over at Bring A Trailer for 928s that I have wanted for some time. This is my favorite color for Porsche and it is the same exterior and interior as the 86 911 Carrera I sold to Danny (DAX) in Belgium one year ago with my 76 914. I have thought that the 928S is going to climbing in value and have been looking for one for a while. This car is original paint 44,000-mile sunroof car. Shark. just needs a little TLC and I mean just a little. Sometimes a deal just comes together, a good day to buy for me. I got a very good deal on the buy. I just have to get it here from Maryland https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1986-porsche-928s-29/ Bob B (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Attached image(s) |

Always good to see you Alan,
Even though my 928 had a timing belt 6.5 years ago and 11,000 miles it had a Continental timing belt put in and they say that belt does not last as long as the factory ones. Anyway, the top 928 mechanics in the So Cal area says fires are common in 928 from old power steering pump hoses and electrical fire from the long battery cable to the rear of car. One of the 928 shops had a car burn up in their garage because of battery cable shorting because of insulation on that cable. I bought a 250-amp circuit breaker made just for the 928 just in case. I am going to have it checked out completely. I am going to have a perfect car The great thing is I have a book of everything that was done to my car from day one. Every piece of work. Factory 5 year 50,000 mile plus the 1st owner had an extended warranty and then donated the car to charity. All in the paperwork. Very lucky to have this extensive paper work. Bob B |
