Dear 914 friends -
At 76, I think I've got one more project in me. My Porsche genius friend Rick found me this in Cleveland: https://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/d/lake...7387301032.html And I have a contract on it for less than asking price. Friends in Cleveland looked at it closely on Wed. nite, sent me 7 close-up videos of it and gave it a huge thumbs up. Engine did run for few seconds with starter fluid, started immediately and sounded like new. Almost no rust, interior immaculate. This is a very rare Special Edition with custom interior, wheels and two-tone paint. Looking for a great source of info on 924's but can't find much. Nothing like 914 world. Any pointers for a resource like 914world would be appreciated - tho I'm sure there is none. NO - not selling the 914! My garage has room for both cars. TIA, GN |

Guys -
Found the same on 932 search. RHD. I have determined mine is #201 of first 600 USA Turbos made - AND went to Puerto Rico. I think all the "Introductory Models" were Diamond Silver Metallic (L97A) on upper half, Dolomite Grey Metallic (LY7V) on the lower half, with Pasha interior. Yes, these days the Porsche folk all refer to the 924 Turbo as the 931, as it was Porsche's internal number for the car. In addition to stock, mine has the following Options: Right and left exterior power mirrors, removeable sunroof, 23mm & 14mm sway bars (like M471 Pkg), rear wiper, electric windows, and A/C. And Fog Lights that mounted below the bumper instead of in the bumper like the EUR cars. I'm thinking of keeping the 15" ATS wheels and rear drum brakes as they were standard in the Introduction Models. One more part of its rarity. What do you all think? GN GN |
