WTB LS swapped 944

Hi - brand new here. Not sure if I am allowed to post here yet, but here goes.

I'm doing an LS swap into a 1972 Chevy C20 pickup at the moment and got looking into 944's. I love the lines of the car, test drove 3 recently (86', 88' Turbo and 90' S2 Cabrio) and am quite convinced that I should pick one up. After much reading about the timing belt maintenance schedule and relatively modest power the engines make, it didn't take long to find this forum. I'm in Toronto, Canada which makes everything a bit harder in terms of sourcing parts, shipping costs, etc. I don't really want to dig into a second major project at the moment, but thought I would throw a WTB up here just in case. Not too specific in terms of what I am looking for, but would prefer a running car, black or something other than red, though that's not critical, don't need crazy horsepower since it would be for street use only. I've got an 8 year old son and he thought riding in the back seat was the most fun he's ever had in a car.

Lots of great info on builds here!

Thanks!

Derek

Derek,

I wanted you to know that your WTB post is up.   My car is almost road ready but not for sale and it's red anyway.... BUT there are experts on this forum that build "948" cars for clients.  They are also an invaluable resource for many of us DIY folks that are chipping away at a project build.

You can also check other Porsche forum markets like the RennList Marketplace

... or perhaps even E-bay Motors.

Best of luck!

Thanks for the reply Ray- I’ve read through your build thread and appreciate all the detail and photos.

I’ve definitely been keeping an eye on Rennlist, along with Hemmings, Samba, FB Marketplace, Auto Trader and Kijiji in Canada. I’ll add EBay Motors to that list.

Thanks, Derek
