Twelve years since I drove my last MKIII, picked up one yesterday...headaches begin

Hey, I've been on this forum for years, since 02 I believe...long story short, my roller got stolen last June, just graduated nursing school and started back to work full-time in January, and have been looking for a nice roller to start a build again, well, came across a 1990 Turbo manual targa and the pictures made it look showroom except for the carpet. Drove it home from Nashville, TN yesterday, no boost, which I noticed on Saturday when I test drove it. Also the clutch is gone...148K on the clock, most likely the stock clutch. Well, now begins the work...Here is a pic I took last night

Welcome back! What are your goals for the car?

I'm keeping this one close to stock. I am looking to build a roller, I have a complete engine, turbo, ems setup ready to drop into a roller. For this one I'm just going to get it mechanically sound and replace any worn parts. I will most likely keep all the crazy parts I have for my build for a fully built stripped interior car.
