Very tired. Posting this from my phone in bed. Went to work at 6 yesterday. Left for seattle at midnight. Was back by 3pm. No sleep. I'm beat.

The wife now has her own Porsche. A 1979 2nd owner 924. Flawless dash, seats and interior. Awesome shape. Runs like a dream and handles fantastic. Here is a pic I took maybe 30 minutes ago. I got a few hours of shuteye and we went on our first drive together. Good pics to come tomorrow.

Looks to be a PA speaker or alarm horn of some type?

The most badass alarm money could buy...... in 1980 and that is for the alarm sound.

The previous owner has an equalizer and CB radio setup along with an alarm system that was installed back in the 80s. So there is some sort of radar detector mount along with an equalizer and such there. My wife wants a different deck and something a bit more modern so I will likely try and find a nicely color matched deck to go in it and I also have a spare speaker cover which I can use.
