The car is in need of a total restoration,as you can see from the pics below the car is in a sorry state and will need lots of work to get it back to as it was when it left the factory.

It has been stripped down, removing everything from the doors,lights,rear hatch,in fact everything that can be removed will be taken off and restored before refitting

Nice project, follow with interest! Are the engine and gearbox ok(ish)? if not it takes a specialist and lots of cash to sort...

Will be posting loads of pics as more is done to the car. This 928 is the 4.5lt. You can find more on the ongoing restoration at http://upfrontporscheclub.com/classified-2/
The 1977 924 and the green 944 are now finished and have been swapped for a silver 928S4 which may need a full respray.
The bonnet of a 928 is made from aluminium and after time paint can lift,so the underside had to be totally repainted.with all flaking paint removed and etch primed.
Top of bonnet hand polished and glaze applied

So far so good (lol) It was driving like a dream a year ago but has been sitting under a cover for quite a while now. Once the bodywork has been finished we will have to have the engine checked out. Hopefully most of the problems (if any) we can do ourselves....forums are very useful. We only have a garage and a greenhouse (shared with the vegetables) to work in unfortunately.

I couldn't make out the interior from the photo.

Is it the black & white chequer pattern?

The seats are blue and white pasha in not bad condition. The dash and surrounds are blue leather.
