No SE should be neglected like that, and it's great you plan to restore it.

To source parts, you will want to download the 986_Kataloge.pdf available from Porsche's website.
Thanks for the pdf link. Yeah I think its the cables but without a thorough inspection its hard to say...I really hope I am able to restore it, will take a lot of time though!

I am curious to see the paint of all things but pictures would help.
I don't have any pics, don't know why I didn't take any yesterday...I can post some tomorrow night

What if I used this car as a track car, cosmetics don't have any significance if I plan on tracking it...just a thought
