No Reserve: Slant-Nose 911 SC Cabriolet with Turbo-Look Wide Body & 3.2 Motor

1979 Porsche 911 Slant-Nose, Wide-Body Cabriolet Convertible Description

This beautiful all-steel, slant-nosed, wide-bodied, whale-tailed classic is a period-perfect conversion.

Recently tuned 3.2-liter Carrera motor runs and sounds great. Model 915/63 5-speed manual transmission shifts well. Rust-free body. No oil leaks. Matching numbers. The car was restored in 2011, when it earned a salvage title, which was due to interior and exterior vandalism. Odometer shows 44,157 miles, but the car's total mileage and the number of miles on the 3.2 motor are unknown.

I’ve done my best to accurately describe the car in detail and provide sharp, well-lit photos. Please contact me with any questions you may have--before bidding. Pre-purchase inspections are welcome. The car is being sold as-is, where-is. Buyer is responsible for local pickup or shipping, but I’m glad to help in any way possible.

TRADES CONSIDERED
Trades for late-model Porsche 911s and Boxsters will be considered

On Dec-01-16 at 21:31:58 PST, seller added the following information:

Matching Chassis Numbers: Because the car's original 3.0-liter 911SC motor has been replaced by a 3.2 Carrera motor (serial number: 64G00141), to avoid any confusion, the listing should read "matching chassis numbers," not "matching numbers.
Convertible Top: It is manually operated, not powered.
