1980 Porsche 911 Leather Description


Porsche engineers don’t make mistakes very often, but the U.S.-spec 2.7-liter 911s built between 1975 and 1977 were plagued with engine problems when new. In 1978, Porsche put those problems behind them with the introduction of the brilliant 3.0 liter 911SC. Porsche now finally mated a body that was capable of lasting indefinitely with an engine that was capable of lasting nearly that long. Well maintained 911SCs are capable of 300,000 miles between rebuilds.The first custodian was a doctor who owned this car from new in 1980 until 2013. In 2013 the second owner bought it. Both owners lived in Texas so rust is a non-issue. A most excellent example of air-cooled 911 Porsche. Factory air conditioning WORKS. Clock works!!
