There have been several recent posts about members acquiring 928s & 924s and I have just picked up this 1986 944 Turbo!
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is a one owner car with a Clean CarFax that was purchased new from Steve Taub in Santa Monica with extensive maintenance history. Paint is pretty oxidized from being outside the last few years. It has got original Fuchs and optional Limited Slip Differential. After taking care of some deferred maintenance, I am going to drive this thing like crazy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) If values continue to pop, I will paint it in the spring and decide whether to keep her or not based on the ownership experience. With values on the rise for transaxle cars, it looks like their time has come! |

Been working through the refresh and still a few things to button up mechanically.
The dreaded oil pan seal needs replacement and still dealing with a hot start issue that is not the DME relay so will look at the injectors and fuel dampener next. Did have the opportunity to give it a DIY exterior detailing and ceramic coat. Paint is nice and shiny now, but still pretty baked on the roof. Car handles extremely well and took it back to the location for WCR 2019 at the top of San Gabriel Canyon Road this past Saturday. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) ![]() ![]() ![]() |
