Rebuild Vin # 9288101003 WE SHIP WORLDWIDE! It's not very often you
come across a first-year 928. With the bulbous, spoiler-free rear
end, dogleg five speed manual transmission, sunroof-delete, and
excellent silver over pinstripe color combo, this is certainly a
special car. But what makes it even more special is the fact that
it is fitted with the drivetrain of an �83 928S, which provides a
significant bump in performance. This car has just undergone a
tremendous amount of mechanical work; the car will come with
receipts for just shy of $10k worth of engine work over the course
of the last five months. We bought the car after it had sat in a
local garage for about ten years, and opted to do a thorough
servicing upon taking it out of storage. While there are some minor
cosmetic things that would need to be ironed out in order to make
this a real stunner (replace window trim, stitch up a couple small
interior tears, etc), the heavy lifting is done and this car is
ready to be driven and enjoyed while slowly polished cosmetically.
Services performed since mid-2017 are as follows (receipts for
all): Resurface cylinder head, replace head gasket, valve job,
replace oil pan gasket, replace timing belt and tensioner roller,
replace water pump, replace thermostat, replace fuel pump and valve
cap, replace circuit board, clean throttle body, replace air intake
boots, clean all fuel rails, replace clutch (bearing, disc, ball
cup bushing), replace all four rotors, replace all brake pads,
rebuild rear calipers, replace crank breather hoses, replace
crankshaft seal, replace ignition wiring, replace drive belts,
replace spark plugs, replace distributor cap and rotor, replace oil
pressure sender, replace sensor plate housing mount, flush fluids,
replace filters, clean and lube chassis. Exterior: The car wears a
respray of it's original Z2 Silber Metallic. The finish is nice,
but isn't without a few imperfections. Blemishes include a light
scuff on the front lower driver door crease, a couple touched-up
small scratches on the driver door, a mark on the rear bumper from
where the previous owner had stuck a Porsche crest sticker, and a
bit of a rash around the key holes on the doors and at the top
corner of the passenger side tail light. Rubber window trim isn't
in great shape, and the rear quarter window trim shows some fading.
Of course, as you can see in the photos, there are plenty of good
things going for the car as well. It's a non-sunroof car, which we
really like. It adds to the clean, uninterrupted lines of the car.
Aside from the aforementioned blemishes, the silver paint shows
very, very well. Rock chipping is really only present on the black
trim around the windshield. Original Phone Dial wheels are in
decent shape, with no curb rash, though the rears do show some
weathering. This car retains its original singular side mirror,
which only adds to the bullet-like shape of the car. Black front
spoiler is in excellent shape, with no cracks or damage. Glass is
all crack-free; in the in-car video you may note some cloudiness of
the windshield. That is not permanent, it just took a good inside
windexing to wipe away. There is however a slight wiper-streak
mark. Interior: Pinstripe interior is a beautiful thing, and looks
great against the silver exterior. Seats are in very nice
condition, with just a couple small, fixable tears on the upper
outside bolster of the driver's seat, as seen in the photos.
Pinstripe centers on the front seats are in great shape, but do
show a bit of age by way of a very slight green hue in direct
sunlight. Rear seats and door panels are excellent. Rear seats fold
down in these early cars, opening up space for a massive cargo
carrying capacity. Original Blaupunkt stereo is in place, though
not currently functional. Heat and front and rear defrost are
functional, air conditioning blows but is not cold. Front
