Major congratulations for an '89 Turbo S!  Those were seriously under-rated cars.

I was surprised to see phone dials, though.  I thought the '89 Turbos all came with these:

I have the man hole covers as well as the phone dials. There was also a third set that I did not look at carefully. They look like some type of aftermarket 5 or 6 spoke set. Definitely not a set of Porsche wheels.  I was bummed as the seller decided to keep the five Fuchs that were in with the stuff.  I really wanted them but they knew the value of those.

There was a big parts hall with this car that I have not sorted out yet. I got the feeling this was really me getting all the parts out of the sellers garage and the car happened to come with it. I pulled the car out of the sellers back yard. It involved avoiding a swamp and a bunch of other fun. Turned in to an all day project. Oh and I had to move a sailboat with my truck. That was interesting. 
 

On a side note I am thinking of naming the car Pigpen.

Looks gross, but from what I see, that interior should clean up nice.  Score!

I'm interested in the front seats if you decide to sell them.  Looks like they're sport seats.

I want to keep these. My plan is to bring this thing back to as nice as possible in stock form with respect to the interior.

I do have a set of black leather standard seats that are in good shape  I also have a set of old recaro seats.Both recaro seats need to be recovered and the driver seat frame has been welded more than once as the steal frame broke.  

I already have a nice set of standard seats,  but the Recaros sound interesting.  If you have some pictures please send them.  Cottonyzf at gmail.

Will do. Probably will not be for a day or two. Since it is going to be raining tomorrow.

Same here, it's great for the few cars I've used it on.

On another note this stuff seems to work really well and smells nice as well!!

Back to the mildew. A bucket of water with a good cup or better of vinegar. Soft rag, wipe everything rinsing frequently. Rinse repeat. Carpets, seats, doors. Everything. 

After that a follow-up with a spray bottle as needed. 

That's how I laid up my boat in Florida and still do my 911 once in a while.
