Most major components on the car have been rebuilt, excluding the engine block itself, the transmission, and differential, all of which were sound.  The head was replaced with an earlier type smog-free head from a 1592cc Spider; we replaced the 1979 Weber with a new, high performance type that retains ease of drivability.  Together the head and carburetor add (or regain, considering the 1979 Spider was smogged to death) about 20HP.  The suspension was completely replaced as was the brake system.  The interior was recovered in stock materials.  It is pleasure to drive, quick, handles wonderfully.

This was out because it leaked, and was promptly sealed with a pound or two of epoxy.

Porsche 928 #9289200459

I started working on a new project car, a 1979 Porsche 928.  A whole new adventure in automotive learning for me, certainly after about 20 years of Italian cars.  I’m documenting the project here – http://www.artigue.com/porsche – for your enjoyment.
