Wed Sep 25 02:07:54 UTC 2024: ## Classic Porsche 928 with European History Heads to Auction
**Santa Monica, CA** – A 1979 Porsche 928 with a fascinating history is set to cross the auction block at Bring a Trailer. This European-market model, originally sold new in Brussels, Belgium, by the D’Ieteren dealership network, was imported to the US in 1980. Now, it’s available to a new owner with a clean Montana title.
The 928 boasts a Grand Prix White (908) exterior, though it was repainted under previous ownership. It features classic details like pop-up headlights, fog lights, and body-color side mirrors. However, it does show signs of wear and tear, including scratches and flaking paint.
Under the hood lies a 4.5-liter V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transaxle, delivering power to the rear wheels. The car also comes equipped with 16″ phone-dial alloy wheels, an aftermarket stereo, power windows, and air conditioning.
Despite its age, the 928 has received some recent maintenance, including new timing belts, water pump, tires, struts, and rear axle shaft assemblies. However, the seller notes a transmission fluid leak and difficulty engaging the parking gear.
This classic Porsche offers a unique opportunity for enthusiasts seeking a piece of automotive history. The auction is underway, and the car is offered at no reserve. Interested bidders can find more information and details on the Bring a Trailer website.
