April 18th was when I mentioned about getting the 944. We are now on September 7th and it finally turned up tonight.

Good points

Has more bits left on it than I was expecting - torque tube, dash, window motors, mirrors, handles.

Bad points

It was originally red - I will have to give the engine bay a clean up before I bolt stuff to it.
Shortlist of bits needed - New brakes/suspension/engine/gearbox/interior.
Something on the rear calipers is a bit funky - we was rolling it down to put in my storage unit and they kept locking up, few swift kicks to each rear wheel and it would move again quite easily. I was just happy my boss decided he wanted to see it as I couldn't have moved it by myself easily.

Still I knew what I was getting into and it is a long term project. Part of me is still thinking about the v8 route but I've got the 5 pot audi lump to do instead so that will go in. Now comes the fun of sourcing bits for it
