Hi,
I'm just writing this to introduce myself. About a year ago, I bought a 924 as a fun project car. Although it has been a great car so far (good body and no mechanical problems), I still have bunch of work to do.
When I got the car, it had been sitting for at least 2 years outdoors here in Oregon with bad door window seals. I'm sure you can guess what issues that brings. I recently pulled out the carpet, and the sound dampening insulation was turned into damp insulation. The vinyl backing was degraded to the point where I thought it was damp particle board until I came to some that hadn't been soaked.
It has some electric problems that I am working through the shop manual and fixing one at a time. (No headlights, running lights, or blinkers and that's just one problem)
Last person was also working on restoring this. He pulled some of the stuff off and I didn't get it. I'll post in parts later what I need. Still it is a great looking car and I look forward to getting to know you as I work on this and maybe make some friends in the process.
Respectfully,
Fightingblind |

Welcome! I am in similar situation. I got a project car about a year and a half ago. Partially converted into a track car. Needs everything. You will find this board to be very helpful. Searching through old posts helps too. Use google's advanced search though. It works pretty well.
