t4orcemps Posted 25November, 2020 Report Share Posted 25November, 2020 I love all Porsches but somehow have ended up with no 911s in the garage. I currently own a 2001 Boxster S manual, 2003 Cayenne Turbo and this 1985 928S with Gemballa wide bodykit and Koenig supercharger kit which I purchased this year. The modifications to the 928 were commissioned by the first owner in Germany when the car was relatively new. Those modifications at the time cost almost as much as the purchase price. The car has stayed that way since almost new and at some point in time was shipped to Japan (so I'm told) and then to Australia. The trail of documentation from Germany to Japan is not with me and the documentation in Australia is also a little skimp. But I do have a lot of paperwork, service records and correspondence for the car from new till the time it left Germany. What is clear is that the car is original in terms of matching numbers and has only 63,000 kms. I would like to track the original owner down at some point in time if he's still alive. Having sat around for awhile, there's plenty of things to be done and certain things are still not working properly. However, it is in overall really good condition. Underneath, it looks like the car has never been driven in the rain. The body modifications are not to everyone's liking but to its credit, it is period correct. Got the opportunity to take it out and took some pictures to share. The numberplates are a bit misleading as it's not an S4 but it is a 5.0. tomo, micknine01, Peter 996 and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much kudos to you ... sterling choice. is the interior as lascivious as the exterior? can I ask what sort of wardrobe you’re thinking to kit yourself out , for the odd occasion it’s working micknine01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the only choice of wardrobe would be a green velour suit with a mankini underneath michel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
