Default FS: 1987 944 5-Speed N/A PA - DOES NOT RUN!

It's been a while since I've been on here but for good reason. A lot has happened over the years and now it is time for me to sell the 944.

History goes like this: I bought this December 2006 as my Daily Driver. It needed some TLC which I gave as much as I could while I had it. I only drove it about 6 month when one morning when I was heading to work, I started it up and there was NO oil pressure. I knew it spun a bearing and never did anything to it for a while. I just pushed it into the garage and there it sat as I thought about what to do. Money was very tight so I put an old car I had sitting around back on the road and contemplated what to do. After about a year of siting I finally started to dive into it with the intentions of fixing it. I remove the cross member and and oil pan and front struts to gain access to the oil pan to take a look inside. Nothing wrong with the pick-up tube but I did notice wear on the bearing edges as far as I could see.

Here are my old threads about the car:
I don't know how to link it but the one is titled " !#@$%@#**@@ !!!!!!"
Search under my name and you'll find some stuff.



Well,
I let it sit and then decided I might want to drop an LS-1 into it. But now I am in the middle of a divorce and it needs to go ASAP!

It currently sits in the Garage in Boyertown, PA with the cross-member removed and still all apart. All pieces are still there but I am currently in Massachusetts trying to start over.

I was just recently in a bad car accident as well with a broken neck, cracked vertebrate in my upper spine, a broken sternum and rib with contusions on my lungs. Good news is that I am recovering just fine and had surgery to correct my neck and spine and should be fine in 6 months.

But I digress.

I need to get the car out of there as I no longer am living there and the ex is losing patience. My In-Laws live right next door to it and have been keeping an eye on it until i found some way to get it out of there. My only hope is to find someone willing to buy it AS-IS and take her away.

The car currently sits with 110,622 miles in it and it needs some minor body work. Could be a great project car for the track or something else. I just need it GONE.

I have been a member here for a long time and have been lurking from time to time.

I am asking $1000 clean and clear but it would need to be towed out.... I might be willing to work on the price.
I literally have the title in my hand and am ready to get rid of it to a better home. I have a few extra black interior parts and a new headliner for the sunroof as it is broken.

The car has a bunch of chips and some scratches and a couple rust spots. The previous owner and I fixed the rust that was at the rear bottom of the rocker panel.

When I bought the car the timing and balance belts were done, it was aligned and the trans axle fluid was replaced with redline. I also replaced and flushed the brake fluid with Super Blue racing brake fluid.

Specs:

Slate Gray Metallic with Burgundy interior
5-Speed
It is NA (non-turbo)
Has some aftermarket 2-piece wheels that need to be refinnished.
I replaced the rear shocks with Koni adjustable
Has (I think) Bilstein front lowering suspension and the whole car was lowered, re-indexed and aligned.
I have a bunch of the paper work but not all of it.
I am throwing in all the extra pieces I have,the O2 meter and 6 Quarts or Royal Purple 20W50.

The radio that's in it I am keeping.

There might be more that I am forgetting but I am here for any questions or concerns.


Here is a link to all the pics i have. The order they go i are the most recent to the oldest.
- Page 1 to half of page 2 is how it sits right now.
- The rest of page 2 and page 3 are the day I bought it. (The harness bar was kept by the previous owner)
- Page 4 through 6 are all pics from the previous owner while he had it all the way back from when he bought it. It shows everything h did while he owned it.

To add, I have a few spare parts like an extra intake manifold, steering wheel that needs to be re-wrapped and a throttle body that needs to be rebuilt.

It will all go with the car if I have a buyer.

Also, wheels would need tires- down to wear bars and the fronts have uneven wear from a poor alignment before. They are Falken Zeix 512's.

Oh, and if anyone is wondering, I do have the front bumper. It was removed when I was taking it apart to take off the oil pan.


It is still apart as it sits now.

Yeah, it needs a little TLC to be really nice but I just don't have the time or money.... seems to be the most common reason LOL.

Me and the PO had a bit of a falling out over the car. Not such a good idea, lol.

I am in no position to buy this, and get it out of PA-However, somebody needs to grab this car. Heck, it has Sport Seats that appear to be in good condition. Buy the seats, and you get a free car!

I live so close to this.

Believe me it's so tempting to part it out.
