Wow, Sao...180k is a lot of miles for the likes of a reliable Honda or Toyota...for a Porsche it's positively miraculous. Even if it did run, the engine has got to be in need of a rebuild by now. If it's air cooled and normally aspirated, those can be pretty simple mechanically, but if it's one the later water-cooled engines, or a turbo -- oh boy.
Sounds like a Mike Brewer and Edd China "Wheeler Dealers" special.
