Hi all. I have a 87 928 and just found a 92 968 in a junk yard. Looks like a TB fail. Owner had the head redone, and installed. But never got past the Vario Cam. It sat for 6 years up on blocks un covered. Paint is toast, but interior and mechanicals look great. I found all of the pieces and will begin to put it all back together this week. For 2K i cant complain. ti is to be my sons first car. I have pretty familiar with Porsche. I started with an 87 924S, then got the monster..the 1987 928 S4..I love this car!!!

Now the 968. I may end up liking it better than the 928..We will see..



Wish us luck!!!



John
