hi all,

i have a 1986 944T which has been very well looked after by me and the previous owners.
i recently had an engine rebuild with uprated parts, dpw, ebc, s/s 3inch exhaust and more done it by Chris @ Loe Bank.

unfortunately it was involved in an accident a few weeks back. and now i would like to get it fixed up and back on the road.

i know i need the following so far ;
1. Bonnet
2. Passanger front wing
3. Impact bar brackets
4. Turbo air guide
5. Bumper & batwing
6. Both headlights & motor bar
7. Air box and snorkel

can someone please tell me from the pictures what other parts i need to get it fixed up.

the chassis will need to be pulled on a jig ever so slightly.

the engine starts and idles fine but will be getting all the mechanics looked at by Chris once bodywork is sorted.

many thanks in advance

HM

Ouch! That looks a proper big impact! I dread to think what will be needed to put that right.

Good luck.

You might be better off looking for a 944 body shell or one that has had a rear impact. Might be easier to find a good shell and swap everything over....

Have you tried Douglas Valley breakers? They break 944s regularly and might have a rolling shell...
