Description:

1986 Porsche 944

Selling my 1986 Porsche 944 2.5L coupe. I have been slowly working on this car over with over $1600 of work done in the last few months - Receipts included. The car is mechanically sound, runs and drives great, and has new body panels that replaced previously dented/broken ones. I have stripped most of the body down to bare metal, sanded and primed it in Nason epoxy primer, so it is ready for final body work and paint. Has a decent amount of dents all around that need body filler and high build primer and sanding. I considered getting a quick respray but decided I would leave the color choice and level of detail to a new owner. The driver's door appears to previously attempted to have been fixed and has small holes for a slide hammer and a lot of body filler on it, probably should be replaced.
The car has never been in an accident, clean PA title, and is stated as odometer exempt because the odometer gear broke as it does on all 944s. I have repaired this and it is spinning like normal now, at 150k currently.
All maintenance done in the past 100 miles, fresh gaskets, fluids and timing belt installed. Brakes, tires and fuel lines were replaced in the past few years and are still in good condition. All the typical interior electronics that normally break have been fixed: power seats, rear wiper, sunroof motor, and clock. Has original spare tire, sunroof protective sleeve and hatch privacy cover. Comes with 3 keys- 1 new OEM Porsche key and 2 duplicates. I have the fog lights, just didn't have them installed for the pictures. Comes with some extra parts, can include a Porsche center taillight panel that lights up, I removed it when I got the car. I have more pictures available up close of different parts of the car.
PA inspection just expired 1/2019. Would need a new windshield to pass inspection, previous owner dropped windshield wiper arm on glass and cracked it pretty good. The vinyl on the driver's seat is coming off, could probably be replaced by a re-upholstery shop.
