Description

**. **I am relisting this due to an over seas non paying buyer with zero feedback. If you are unable to follow through with the auction please do not bid or buy it now. Thank you.
I purchased this car in November of 2014 with the intention of keeping it forever. With a new baby and other priorities it turns out that keeping it forever is not in the cards.I did not put the car on the road until May of 2015. The car was in great shape when I purchased it but for me to be satisfied with it I needed to do an extensive inspection and service on every mechanical component on the car.This included but was not limited to the following.
Basic maintenanceOil and filters change with Mobil One 0/50 oil. Replaced transmission fluid with Royal Purple Fluid. Replaced air filter. Performed valve adjustment.
DrivetrainReplaced front differential outdrive seals. Serviced all wheel drive system solenoids.
SteeringRebuilt power steering pump. Replaced one low pressure line. Flushed system.
CrankcaseReplaced all externally accessible oil seals and gaskets associated with the crankcase. This includes but is not limited to seals and gaskets associated with the following: oil pressure sender, il temp sender, il breather console, il line to tank, il line from tank, il line from thermostat to crankcase, alve cover, istributor.
Fuel SystemRemoved and cleaned throttle body. Removed and cleaned both intake towers. Removed and cleaned intake plenum. Removed and cleaned mass air flow unit. Lubricated throttle butterfly. Removed and cleaned idle stabilizer control valve. Replaced fuel injectors and all seals. Removed, leaned and pressure tested the fuel pump. Replaced fuel filter and soft fuel lines.
IgnitionReplaced all spark plugs. Removed and cleaned distributor caps. Replaced distributor belt. Replaced both ignition modules. Replaced one coil. Reset OBD1 system memory. Replaced DME relay.
ExhaustRemoved entire exhaust system. Cleaned all stainless steal exhaust components. Removed and cleaned heat exchangers inside out. Installed a Fabspeed primary muffler bypass.
ElectricalRebuilt all seat and window switches. This entailed disassembling each one and cleaning the carbonized contacts and reassembling. Removed clock and re-soldered all contacts(a common point for electrical faults on the 964). Removed and cleaned all grounds.
GeneralTarga top recovered with German vinyl and headliner from Lakewell Interiors.The Targa bar was removed and polished which took over 60 hours of tedious work but the result, n my opinion, as well worth the time.Rebuilt both power seat bases. Rebuilt pedal cluster. Removed and reassembled rear bumper and heat shield assembly. Removed door panels and serviced power window regulators and motors. Serviced rear spoiler.
AccessoriesAlpine Bluetooth CD player. Soundstream components in the doors and Pioneer rear shelf speakers. The door speakers are in stock locations as well as the crossovers. The owners manual cover was professionally made out of high grade leather.
I have documents for the car going back to the early nineties. The engine was completely rebuilt in 2004 at 124k miles. The car has 149k on it now. The clutch was done in late 2009.What I can't express in the photos is the way this runs and car drives. It drives as near to perfect as any car I have ever driven. I can say without any hesitation that this car feels more like it has 100 miles on it rather than 149k. Though most Porsche's driven beautifully in general this one is certainly exceptional in this category. It has absolutely no rattle shakes, himmies, r squeaks. It tracks straight and does not pull at all even under hard braking. Everything works on the car. The tires are in excellent shape and show no uneven wear.The paint is in excellent shape in general but does have stone chips on the front bumper and lower part of the hood. The are a few very minor dings here and there but nothing major.The leather is in excellent shape and the seats are in very good shape in general and only show minimal wear.The car leaks no oil. It had a minor leak at the front cooler which I believe I have fixed although it has only been driven about 150 miles since I replaced the fitting.The car smells like a Porsche inside and has no signs of ever being smoked in.It includes a complete tool kit and jack as well as the tire bag, riginal gloves, nd fan belt.
Known issues are as follows. The one rear seat sometimes decides to fold down on its own. I get an intermittent seat belt and air bag light.
Local inspection and test drive is encouraged. I believe this cars greatest attribute to be the way it drives.
Please keep in mind that this car is 24 years old and is not perfect and that I have tried to represent it as realistically as possible.

I am sorry for the pictures being upside down and sideways. I'll drink a V8 juice drink and see if I can get some more in better orientation.
A few things I missed.I applied Dynamat extreme to the insides of the doors, n the front and rear firewalls and on the tunnel.
