    Hey There Dave sure we can chat on #38 sry I haven't been online much lately work has kept me very busy this year... What would you like to know? I bought the car sight unseen off e bay a several years ago.. I was pleasantly surprised it was 98% complete no major issues just lots of little things wrong... Well pretty much everything needed going through but didn't have to replace anything major. The engine does smoke a bit when I first start it but I think that is just old dried out valve stem seals... It has been hidden away in my garage for a few years I have just recently got it out again.. Its currently in the driveway next to the smorgasporsche awaiting warmer weather for some more attention... We just came through a really bad cold spell here.. down to -10 F . Finally above freezing today.. Hopefully not as cold for a few days...

    Hi, I see you have an early 928 or two... I'm interested in knowing more about your #38 car. If you feel like chatting about it a bit, just respond to this PM and we can get together some time.

    Regards,

    Dave

    Hey prleblanc I don't have anything with a MAF in it here but if you try Matt aka 17prospective buyer lower on the list here. I think he owns an 87 he is local he might be able to help. Lots of other parts though....

    Hey Paul, I live in Dorchester, and see that you have a fleet of 928's, I was wondering if you have a maf that I can test in my 928 to see if mine is pooched and in need of a rebuild. I don't know of any other 928 owners locally here, but it would be great to meet up. my email is prleblanc@rogers.com, thanks in advance.

    they looked pretty good to me the car was low miles when it was hit hard in the left front it was stored outside though so if I get a chance I can go pull them out again and take a closer look.
