Vehicle description
We purchased this 1982 Porsche 928 from a collector who always kept it stored, and in running and driving condition. It was part of a larger collection and the owner finally realized he did not have the time to give the car the refresh it deserves. We do not know the history or have service records. It does run and drive, and has a clean carfax. Please do not hesitate with questions.
Exterior The body is very straight, and from the condition of the underside it is obvious the car spent most of its" life in clean and dry storage. I believe about 70% of the paint is original. Both rear quarter panels are a slightly different shade of red, so they were repainted at some point. The driver"s side has some filler that is starting to crack. The nose area has common stone peppering. The passenger side rear quarter has some bubbling in the paint where it meets the trim. Overall the car looks straight and well kept with a nice shine, though on close examination the different shades of red are obvious. The glass looks to be all original and in excellent shape. The window trim on the passenger side is missing the connecting piece at the front, and the driver"s side view mirror is wobbly and needs to be repaired or replaced. The wheels all look good and straight without any serious imperfections.
Interior The interior like the exterior looks to be indicative of proper storage. The seats are likely original and though a little worn are still very presentable. The dash does have some lifting towards the passenger side A-pillar, but is still good for a 928. The door panels, headliner and rear seat are all excellent. The interior has never been altered by a stereo upgrade and is useable as-is for a nice driver.
Functionality and Accessories The windows and sunroof do not currently work though we will make an effort to sort these issues out prior to the ending of the auction. All the lights, blinkers, high beams, brake lights and etc work. The wipers, horn, climate control fan, hazard switch, and stereo function properly. All the interior lights work, including the ones on the doors. All the gauges seem to function. The fuse box is clean and dry and does not look like it has suffered like many 928 fuse boxes, and because of this the electrical issues should be fewer.
Engine Bay The engine bay looks clean and well sorted. The hoses, belts, and clamps look to be oem. Though this car needs servicing it looks to have been properly serviced in the past by someone who knows 928s. The proper stickers and factory warnings are present.
Trunk Area The trunk area is clean and dry. And all the different carpet pieces are accounted for . The tool kit is present, though missing a wrench or two. The factory jack and etc are also there. The hatch opens and closes smoothly and the hatch struts hold it in place.
Underside The underside of the car is very clean and dry.
Mechanicals The car starts quickly and sounds like a healthy Porsche 928 V8. It does not overheat, or leak. The transmission does not go into gears easily. This could be because of old fluid, a weak clutch slave, or worn syncros. We also did not drive the car extensively and once warm it should shift better. But until it is serviced no real miles should be added. The brakes work well, and the suspension feels tight. But all of these items should be looked over before the car is put into service. The tires are matching and have good tread but are 20 years old.
If you are truly interested in the car please contact us and we can send you a file with over a hundred photos. Porsche 928s with manual transmissions are gaining in value and this is a great opportunity to buy one on a budget. We would not recommend driving this car home, and we always recommend having a hands on visual inspection before bidding. There is no warranty or guarantee of any sort on this car. Please only bid if you are serious and have the funds. And please do not hesitate to ask questions. Good luck bidding!
