Vehicle Description
Now available from CPR Classic is this 1972 Porsche 911S Targa
(Silver/Red), fresh out of a CPR Ground-Up Restoration.
For the model year 1972, Porsche built 12,962 '911' model cars. Of
those, only 1,750 were 'S' Coupe models, and just 989 were 'S'
Targa models. The 'S' model 911 uniquely featured alloy front brake
calipers, Koni shock absorbers, front and rear anti-roll bars, and
the 'S' exterior trim package.
While many Porsche enthusiasts prefer the rigidity of the Coupe,
the Targa model's ability to fill the cockpit with sunshine and
fresh air has a certain charm that seems magnetic to many who see
and experience it. It's no wonder that the rarer Targa model is in
high demand today.
This sublime numbers-matching 911S Targa underwent a ground-up,
rotisserie restoration by our marque experts, completed early
2019.
CPR stripped the car down to the bare metal tub and removed all
paint and undercoating. It was then metal worked with lead, and the
gaps set to beautiful factory-correct tolerances. From there, the
car was sealed, epoxied, and undercoated and then refinished in
factory-correct Metallic Silver Glasurit two-stage paint, per the
Certificate of Authenticity. It was then color sanded and buffed to
original factory quality looks and condition.
Every nut and bolt during the restoration was either replaced,
restored, or refinished to like-new condition. This full-scale
restoration included all systems and components of the car, to
include: engine, transmission, brakes, electrical systems, body
repair, exterior refinish. It also received a complete brand new
period correct red leather interior by Autobahn Interiors, freshly
refinished Fuchs wheels by Al Reed Polishing, and brand new Porsche
factory-approved Pirelli CN36 tires.
This 911S Targa is just about as close as you can get today to
walking into a Porsche dealer's showroom in 1972 and buying a
fresh-off-the-factory-floor, new 911.
This Targa is a rare opportunity to take immediate delivery of a
full CPR restoration without having to wait- and with a CPR
warranty!
