1978 Porsche 911 Porsche 911 SC rust free california car sharp Description
VERY CLEAN 1978 Porsche 911 SC 3.0 ..I purchased this car from a gentleman in Southern California in 2016 . It has spent its life out there with the same owner since the mid-80's until being shipped to Southern Kentucky in October 2016 .It runs excellent, no smoking or funny noises, shifts excellent, no popping out of gear or anything like that, no issues runs great.
.This car (first year SC) was upscale with options such as power windows, factory AC, power mirror, headlight washers & factory fog light, also included, but not installed ADS speakers. The car sits in a garage all year round, and doesn't get drove much in winter, but I do start it up at least every couple weeks during the winter
It has always been 100% rust free . Since purchase it had been disassembled painted in PPG base clea, then reassembled using many new seals and trim parts (this was NOT a tape job respray and I have pics documenting all), clutch dis, pressure plate and disc was replaced in 201, while engine was for clutch replacement front and rear crank main seals were replaced along with Pelican parts smog pump removal plugs and oil return tubes, car has also been upgraded to turbo valve covers., . High mileage as car has always been on the road and driven but never abused .i have all documents/receipts going back to mid 80’s when previous owner purchased . (price reflects mileage 209k) new Hankook ZR tires,
It sports fully polished 16x7 (front) & 16x8(rear) fuchs alloys polished by Smith Brite works metal polishing.
Car has Porsche Euro headlamps with new upgraded headlamp relay and new headlamp/turnsignal switch. The AC was working up until this late summe, It has a updated compressor kit r134 I realized it developed a leak,I found leak, replaced O-rings on hose, tried to fill myself with Freon, but was told it needs a vacuum pulled with air conditioning machine
Interior is a dark cocoa brow, it all appears to be mostly original (back seats have been recoverd) dash has a few common cracks (ABS overlay is available new) Top Latches where repaired in 2018., Pioneer CD player with new speakers front & rear, all gauges work.
This car was born as a Targa, in the late 80's was converted to Cabriolet using factory parts (I have the receipts showing where the shop did the conversion) this was a easy and somewhat common conversion as the cabriolet and targa share the same reinforced structure, same doors, same windshield fram, upper striker latches and door glass. they would remove targa roll bar and back glass, then mount convertible folding system in place) car could easily be returned back if you had the targa parts. which I don't and had no plan of doing anyways.
(in pics shown (taken earlier this week, drivers side headlamp glass has rock chip, but was replaced two days ago, also water on ground is from car being washed off and then backed up to that spot where pics were taken,i have not attemted to clean engine compartment in a while so should clean up really well.
ill be happy to answer any more questions to serious buyers.
decided its time to sel, so make a serious offer.
Re-cap. this is a GREAT Honest ca, sometimes when dealing with older porsches there are discrepancies sellers fail to mention, I am representing this car to the best of my knowledge .once again, I have receipts /work repair invoices dating back to the mid 80/later 80's .car is titled and located in Kentucky but does include its original blue and yellow California plate, also, all VIN numbers on car match as they should.
,This is great car and truly a rust free southern California car, first time I have offered this on eBay and don't be alarmed by the low price,reason being is I'd like to sell pretty quick due to fact I recently purchased a new vehicle and cannot keep both (car can be kept in safe storage until picked up within a reasonable timeframe)
