SOLD SOLD SOLD!

Beautiful, amazing little car! Lots of fun driving in the sun with the top in the trunk. Runs extremely well! I had Automobile Atlanta fix it up in 2010 and it has been running perfectly ever since. This car is my "baby" but my wife and I are looking to move, and we need to find a loving home for it.

Clean and clear title.
I have put $6,700 into the car over the years (mostly work done at Auto Atlanta).
Rebuilt transmission. New 19 piece clutch kit. Replaced four brake flex lines and flushed brakes. Degreased engine and transmission. Installed turbo tie rod kit. Adjusted valves. Replaced both C.V. axles. New vac line kit. Base gaskets and runner boots. Fabricated block off plate. Removed, straightened, and resealed headers. Leakdown and compression test. All of this was done professionally by Automobile Atlanta in 2010. WOW! It drives and shifts so smooth and awesome!
Installed a nice speaker system (new JL Audio XD200/2 200W 2 Ch Amplifier with 6.5” 150W Blaupunkt PCxt652 speakers in very nice custom speaker pods).
Car is in great condition and is garage kept. It has either stayed in the garage or had a car cover on it its whole life since I have had it.
Starts up nice and easy, and runs great! Never been in an accident since I have had it, doesn't appear as though it has before me either.
Shifts nice and smooth, no grinding (Auto Atlanta made sure of this). My wife finds it easier to shift than our 2011 Honda Fit!
Never driven in snow.
Rust free.
Previous owner purchased the car in 1989, and he claimed he put $12k into the car.
Heat works really well.
Installed a new alternator in 2004.
New KYB GR-2 struts installed in 2006.
Solid motor and transmission mounts installed in 2009.
Auto Atlanta did a compression check on the engine and it is strong at 110, 120, 115, and 125.
Front end alignment done in 2010.
Auto Atlanta did a bunch of work to the car in 2010. I have posted the invoices which list the work they did along with the photos.

Tires are old, they need to be replaced. The dash has cracks in it but doesn't necessarily have to be replaced. The driver’s seat adjustment handle is broken. Seat can still be adjusted, it just doesn't have the handle ($15). Clock has stopped in the center console. Odometer no longer works. Odometer recorded 94,486 miles before it stopped working. A/C does not work and did not work when I purchased the car. The previous owner said the A/C worked up until he began a restoration project on the car. I was told by Auto Atlanta that it is not worth trying to get it to work.

Spare items and/or parts that I am including with the car:
Tech Tips 700 book
Haynes Manual
Porsche Driver’s Manual
