Default FS: '78 Euro 5spd #975

For Sale - 1978 928 Euro 5spd, Petrol Blue, Pasha, 135K mi. - $5,000 (car and all parts). Assembly required. I bought this car from the second owner who brought it over from Holland and had it federalized by Wallace Labs. Drove it for a month before starting restoration. It ran great and shifted smoothly. Purchased over $2,500 in new parts still in boxes and bags, with receipts, all essential items for mechanical restoration, including belts, hoses, seals, gaskets, plastic and rubber parts, TB/WP items, steel ball joints, AC parts/hoses, plug wires, intake tubes, hood liner and lots more. I cleaned and greased the CV joints and replaced the boots. Removed the intake, CIS, timing belt covers, fuel lines, AC compressor, radiator and that's as far as I got. I am moving and don't have the time nor space to work on it, so it will be sold as-is. You will have to pick it up with a trailer.

Wallace (or WETL) did the federalization on my '92 Euro GTS as well. Great folks there. They did the first federalization of a 959 more than a decade ago!

Steve,
I am interested. I need to see the car in person. When can we get together?
How is the Pasha - overall condition please?

It all depends on the Pasha - the rest is easy.

ooooh, I'm on pins & needles. I'm hoping my standards are lower than yours, and that these are in the sweet spot in between.

Rog - I can show it to you any day Mon - Wed of next week. Just give me a call. I would say the pasha is about a 8. The worst is the rear seat bottom behind driver has two tears. The drivers seat looks like it has a stain or a shadow in photos, but it's the nap of the cloth. It changes shades when you brush your hand over it, kinda hard to describe. Dash, pod, headliner, door panels and rear quarters are near perfect, no cracks or warpage.

PO installed electric remote keyless door locks - those are the lock buttons. I painted them black since the photo was taken.
