My wife is gona kill me, but I just brought home a 1987 Carrera Cabrio.

Not sure what's going on with the engine, but it turns freely.

Needs a new top, and interior, and a lot of TLC.

here are some pictures.

Geeez, who is the next in line for the cars after she finds out, lol. Good find and good luck! Looks like a nice alt ride to the bug.

I can't wait to see you work this baby over!

Where did you find it? Looks like it was sitting in some dirt..

Yeah what's the back story?

Nice score, one of my favorite P-cars.

Did you see how clean that garage is?

Engelbert's the man!!

I thought that was the living room... it won't be clean after working on that engine.. Nice find.

The car was sitting outside under a car cover. I expected that it is in worse shape. Looks like I need a new top, but will see if somebody can put in a new rear plastic window, etc.

The body is actually in good shape, a good cleaning and buffing should bring the paint back to life. The underside looks good, no signs of rust, even the gas tank has no dents, or scratches.

I will start removing the interior, and see what's under the carpet. I lifted the carpet behind the rear seats and it was dry and found no rust.

Still need to find out about the engine.

I actually did the complete build of the green 911T in that garage on that lift.
