I know I'm getting a bit ahead of myself since I have not found the right local car yet but my plan is to buy a rollor or something with a blown motor to completely redo. Thankfully I'm in better financial shape now that when I bought my first quest in the mid 90's so it will allow me to do things the way I've always wanted to. The price on them is a little expensive but on the large scale of my plans and budget it's not to bad. On my last build, 95 TA, I almost pulled the trigger on a vette headlight conversion that was $1200. With the body lines on the 944 being similar I thought this may be a practical option. Once I have the right car in my possession and I pull the motor and interior ill get with a body shop for more input. Just throwing out some ideas.... John

Hey guys been gone a long time but I'm getting ready to buy and restore another conquest and I was searching around the Internet for some ideas to get rid of te flip up headlights and I stumbled across these. Built for the mid 80's 944 (similar body style) and these may work well with some modification and body work.... http://www.deutschnine.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=porsche-transaxle&Product_Code=D9-944II951S2-GTS&Category_Code=porsche-transaxle-944-turbo-s2-aero-dynamics I know when I was a regular on these forums this was often discussed topic and forgive me if someone had posted these before. Been lurking now and again but haven't followed the forums closely for some time. Lets hear what you guys think.... Btw it's good to see some old names on here. I wish I never sold my 3 quests I've had in the past... Can't wait to find the right car and get started John

Still available?

Still available?

I almost bought that car but it has rust on the frame rail and some behind the rear wheels. Its beautiful but the rust scared me away

Sorry bro, I guess I was being over sensitive

Thank you Scotty I appreciate it. John

Thats your perception and you are entitled to it but why stir up trouble? I looked at many great starquests but I didn't find the car that reached out and grabbed me. The car I absolutely had to have. I looked at so many cars and talked to allot of members. (made some new friends too) I've been driving my friends Jeep for the last two weeks and I had to make a decision. To spend that kind of money on a starquest that wasn't exactly what I wanted would be foolish, so I bought a dependable daily and set money aside for a starquest down the road. Azstar I don't know you and I surely would not pass judgment on you or question your character.... and I don't want to keep going back and forth about this on this thread. If have anything else negative to say send as many pm's as you want other wise lets just put this subject to rest. John

Its a daily driver and not ment to outrun anything. I will buy a starquest again in the near future. Flame away all you want.... If it makes you feel better about yourself. It was good talking to some of my old friends on here. Seems like the heart of the community is still strong! John

Just wanted to thank everyone for the help! I bought a car Monday but I decided to get a reliable daily driver and purchase my quest a little later. In case you are curious I bought an 2002 VW Jetta GLS 18t. I'm still going to but another quest but it will be a few months down the road. John

If it looks as good as your profile pic I would surely be interested! I was admiring that car the other day. John

I just wanted to thank everyone for their help and responses! You guys posted up some beautiful cars for me to consider! I've spoke with a number of members and now I remember why I loved being a part of this community so much. I'm still looking but I've got a number of great leads on some very nice cars. Hopefully soon I'll be posting some pics of my new starquest! John

? I wasn't trying to order anyone around if that is what you were refering to..... I just assumed that it was his friend that he was posting that up for and to let him know I may be interested. John

Thanks bro John

Got some decent replies so far but I may try that. Burtons is sweet, and antitrust is amazing. I would by that in a heartbeat. Why did michael knight mean by its probably to late? I have some old starquest buddies that tell me I'm crazy but I've always said when I had the money I would do this. I just need a clean platform to start from and look out
