What I found out about my car today, First time looking at it after it was purchased Options

[poohsan]

Today was my first time really looking at the car after purchasing it. I have not seen the car all week and was feeling some buyer’s remorse. All of that changed today after I went through the car. It is actually better than I thought is would be. More things work than not. I am also confident that it is a keeper. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

Here is a run down of what occurred today.

Items removed:
Old center consul
Floor mats
After market pull-out radio harness and all related wiring
Remains of an alarm system
Run of wires from radio to trunk for non extant amp
Run of wires to the battery for the non extant amp
3 spoke center caps on wheels
Silly overly small steering wheel
Dead fuses

Things fixed:
Passenger side outer door handle, door now opens
Added a factory steering wheel
Rear hood now latches tight

Things I discovered:
Window wipers do not work
Fog lights my be spliced into head light wire harness
Found some wires from wire harness in front trunk not connect to anything
Wires near wiper motor not connected to anything
80% of the dash wiring is intact and works
Passenger side head light does not illuminate when I switch on the Brights
Body has less rust than I thought
Rear bumper is compressed on passenger side from impact
Rear end is sagging need new springs
Emergency break button popped off.
Speedometer was serviced at some time so mileage may be off.
Speedometer works but cable is not spinning when I drive
Will need all seals around Targa top, windows, door handles
Hood release lever does not spring back and needs to be pushed into place
No “E” in Porsche on my engine hood
Rocker panels are cracked
Rear view mirror is a goner
All carpet and upholstery will need to go.
Dash pad is a goner
Have a short shifter that will need to be replaced with a stock one
Passenger side window is chipped

Good things:
Starts on the first try
Engine runs good
Transmission shifts good except for downshifting into first while I am rolling
Low rust
Rims look like keepers for now
Breaks work good

If all goes well I could be driving it to work on Monday.
