Hey all,
I just registered and I'm excited to be here. When I was in high school (30 years ago) I had a 1986 turbo coupe and I loved it. I've been looking, not very often I must say, for another 1.....pipe dream really. I was just surprised by my father who purchased a 1987 turbo coupe with 13,600 miles on it and still showroom condition......black exterior with the red pin stripe around the lower body and charcoal interior. It reminds me of my high school days, just 1 year newer. Some very minor exterior cosmetic issues but near mint inside and out. The pipe dream has become reality.

Wow, Adrian, that may be one of the cleanest TC's on here. Very nice, I also had one back in the late 90's, sold it and was looking for another ever since. Finally found a clean 88 TC that I currently drive. You will enjoy this website, and send us some more pics of that clean bird.

I will look to add a couple easy things to maybe give it a little more hp, but going to leave it pretty much as is. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Dave, welcome to the forum. Give us some more details on your project, such as your goals with it, what is it missing, does it run, the year, and your location will be nice to help us along. Many of us have sold, traded, or given parts away on here so we could probably help. Maybe start your own post as well, that way you are not hi-jacking someone else thread.
