985 porsche 928 S
1985 Porsche 928
1985 Porsche 928 S in special order "Prussian Blue Metallic" with "Can-Can Red" interior (total 80's color scheme). Car is rust free (stored inside) and in pretty good shape for a 33 year old car. You don't see many of these around anymore and have been going up in value in the last few years.
The good:
Well, it's a Porsche.
Color scheme is rare.
17" Cup C2 rims, tires have about 90% life remaining (Michelin Pilot Sport on rear, Pilot Super Sport on front).
Head gaskets replaced at 112K miles, steering rack at 107K miles.
Timing belt was changed prior to me owning it, based on emails with previous owner's mechanic (reputable).
Have all of my receipts plus some invoices from previous owner.
Also installed a 7" touchscreen in-dash DVD player.
The bad:
Vacuum leak that I can't find....resulting in rough idle.
Recently replaced tachometer hovers around 900 rpm, regardless of actual engine speed.
Passenger door does not unlock with key (in pass. door lock). Works when locked from driver's door or lock buttons.
A/C hasn't worked since I've owned it.
Blower fan acts up once in a while (could be a resistor pack).
Dash and pod have some cracks/warping.
Driver's seatback has some scratches (probably from something in back pocket).
I think the vibration damper in the torque tube came loose from it's carrier...rattles at idle, but goes away when it's under a load. Have a replacement torque tube with Constantine Super Bearings.
This car has gremlins that need to be chased and caught. I don't really have the free time to devote to it. These cars are very complicated. This car would be best suited for someone who knows them inside and out or has a mechanic that knows the breed.
Includes belt tension tool, spare oil filter, lift bars, car cover and miscellaneous parts.
Yes, the ride height looks high in front. I recently took it off it's storage skates and the front hasn't settled down yet.
This car is for sale locally.
