Scored a 1999 boxster today for $2k off craigslist!

I got lucky and was the first person to look at it. 140k on the clock, but older guy bought it with a bad engine. Spent 3k on a used engine with 80isk k miles on it and did the engine swap himself. Has a lift and nice setup at home, but he couldnt get it going and got tired of messing with it. Engine runs if gas sprayed in intake. Alarm goes off with key in ignition, and turns over but wont start. Sounds like a computer or immobilizer issue? Have it at one of the best porsche indys in Charlotte now going to sort it out. Guy said he has had 100 calls about it and got lucky to be first in line. Fingers crossed for a good flip, Or if not should still make a few $$ selling as a roller! Interior is mint, paint is good, just needs a new top!
