Just Bought a Terrible 1999

I had three current Boxster project cars and the last thing I need is yet-another Boxster project car. The thing is, sometimes you have to buy them when they are for sale rather than waiting 'till the time is right. This one is very rough. It is a great example of what to look out for if you are buying a 986. It runs and drives, but the body is rough, it has no records of maintenance, there have been questionable repairs, the transmission has problems, and the interior is trashed. For me, it is exactly what I want. I like to be creative in restoring and modifying these. Buying a car that's in great shape is actually of little interest to me. I have a lot of parts and this looks like a good place to use them.

I will probably start a thread later in the 'Show and Tell' section of the forum once I really get to work on it, but for now I'll leave you this:
