HELLO!
My name is Blake, I'm 17 from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
My daily driver is just a little 99 Hyundai tiburon but in October I purchased a 1987 924s 😍 She needed some fixing up and work but my dad and I worked on it and she runs smooth...
I am quite new to the actual mechanics of cars however my dad has been a mechanic for almost 30 years and has had quite the collection of American muscle, but Porsche is new to him aswell ... We're both learning a lot and I'm so excited I've found a good forum! |

Hi all, new to the board, but I have been lurking for quite a few weeks.
I have a '81 924 NA that needs some interior and electrical love, but so far runs well.
Living on the coast of Northern NSW, so keen to hear from other Aussies. _________________ '81 Porsche 924 NA

Hello all, I've been stalking the forums since I saw a '78 924 on CL. Well I picked it up thus past weekend. I aspire to fix her up and make her an autocross / weekend driver. I'll be asking a lot of noob questions so please bare with me.

Hello. New here and new to the Porsche world. I remember the 924, 944 and 928's very well growing up in the 70s and 80s. I was at a classic car auction and this little guy caught my eye and before I new it, had followed me home.

oh! very cool! I don't feel any soft spots or holes under the Gulf sticker. With a $2500 car I'm not too worried. It looks great, everyone smiles when they see it. It runs well. They put a new R134 system in it, did some fuel delivery work, new tires and stereo so I'm enjoying it. Just have a bad leak where the LHS cowl drain pipe is rusted out. I hope for sunshine this week to dry it out while I clear a space for it in the garage. |

I'm sure I'll regret it later, but I'll go ahead and trade you. |

Finally I have a pic of my car(kinda blurry) on here! I wasn't looking for a 924 when I found it. I buy a fixer upper now and then. Some get sold when finished some I keep. I saw it on craigslist for $800. Every time I went on cl for weeks it was there. After I showed it to my wife about 20 times(hey that little Porsche is still on here). One day she said I should buy it for myself. 2 years later I now have some time to work on it. I have taken lots of pics as I work on it so now I will get them on photobucket and post them. |
