It certainly wasn't planned, but I was contacted with an offer I couldn't refuse. Just got back a little bit ago from the "front yard rescue" operation. It's a 93, Amazon Green over deviating Cashmere/Black, Tiptronic Coupe. Not sure what the plan is for it yet........very close to being a driver. Some key upgrades (17" wheels, exhaust and suspension) that will most likely find their way to my Coupe and then put this one back to stock for a flip once it's all sorted out.

Based on the headline, it could have been a lot worse.

I notice the tow hook. Was this car tracked?

Nice! That's a solid little fleet of 968s you have there now.

Rap.....three now and a mostly still intact parts car. My White Cab is slowly becoming a gargae queen. The Green 6 speed Coupe that I rescued about 3 years ago is actually pretty nice at this point with lots of new or refurbed pieces and parts. The new Coupe is a Tip, has higher mileage and will need some serious cleaning and some TLC with the transmission, but way too nice to part. Then there is the parts car, also a 6 speed Coupe.

These cars can easily become an addiction. I bought my 968 with the intent to sell or part out my wrecked 944S. I decided to keep the 944 and is in the body shop now repairing the damage (which wasn't that bad but bad enough for the insurance to salvage the title). I can see myself getting another 968 to add to the stable.
