Why? It's dub's car. I originally bought it as a spare running car/easy restoration project. The project was biting off more than I can handle. I don't need a spare. I need driveway space.

It's a 1983 944. Been sitting in my driveway untouched for about 5 years. Prior to then it had a few minor things wrong with it. One being the radio antenna quit going up, one door latch is missing so the door opens all the way without effort, shit like that. The tires have less the a hundred miles. There's a crack in the leather dash board. Most everything is original. I had pretty much anything that was rubber replaced --such as vacuum hoses-- about 500 miles/6 years ago. The clear coat started peeling in some places. A/C work very for 1982 technology.
I won't bullshit you though. Parts are a bitch to find, even through the dealership. Oil filters had to be ordered. Pretty much something breaks everytime you touch it. A complete restoration probably costs as much as a brand new Boxter. Unless of course, you're skilled in these areas whereas AP is not. The only condition is that I will not sign the title over to anyone other than you. I'm try to avoid the flipping on eBay or craigs list if possible. Mainly because Id rather it go to someone who would use it or restore it. I could eBay it myself as Felix points out. And then it becomes a parts car. Also, I don't want people in my driveway kicking tires. I'm really weird that way. Alas right now I still want my driveway back more than this car. You have until July 3, 2011 to get it. Otherwise, it gets donated to charity and the tax write off is worth more to me than a sales price. |

I make bad decisions.
|
Most important question, is it an auto or manual?
I'm considering coming to pick it up as a potential track car. This area actually has a pretty good following for 944s. I was originally going to build my old 240, but since I totaled it, never going to happen. I'll d a little more digging over the next couple days to see if it's something I really wanna do or not and let you know. |

That's funny because I'm guessing AP.

Put those next to Gatorade, Makers Mark, Shamrock Milkshakes from McDonalds, a handful of doritos, and the lunar rover from Apollo 12 and we'd have a party.
