Attention to period details such as correct headlight, tail light and turn signal combinations as well as push button start. As you can see by the images the vehicle is in incredible condition. If you are looking for a Porsche Spyder that you can get in and drive without hesitation this is a vehicle for you. I have hundreds of before and after photos of the build process. When purchased in 2009 the vehicle was in good but not great condition. As you can see this is a fresh restoration with everything new on the vehicle. Vehicle is titled as 1984 Porsche 2-Door in the State of Texas. Vehicle is classified as an Antique Vehicle and has a new 5 Year Plate Registration. If you need any additional information please do not hesitate to email me with questions. Have another project on the way and need to make room. Good Luck and Happy Bidding.
