Auction is live! No reserve. While picking up a few items at the last Hoy Auction, ran into Jay and we discussed auctioning one of my Porsches. I need the space and opted to let the 944 go.  It’s an online auction and when live, you should see it listed here on Hibid . 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo VIN: WP0AA0954GN155745 2dr Coupe, 4-cyl. 2479cc/220hp Bosch FI Burgundy exterior and interior.

Serpentine belt probably took the longest mostly because you have to remove rear bumper, wing, and airbox, but easier than I thought - its like a big lego set. When I removed the carriage bolt the engine dropped a little and was glad I got a bottle Jack to lift engine up again to put it back in. Before I took off...
