CLASSIC Soon after Porsches new 6-cylinder 911 entered production
in September 1964, the famed engineers from Stuttgart set to work
methodically improving and updating it to virtual perfection. While
detail-oriented, these upgrades made the great original 911 design
even better than before, culminating in the 2.2-liter models built
from August 1969 to July 1971. While the 911 S and E carried higher
power ratings, the 911T was a surprisingly strong performer in with
outstanding acceleration and a top end approaching 130 mph. Just
2,545 examples of the 911T were produced in total for 1970 with the
Targa body style, delivering open-air enjoyment with its removable
roof panel and the safety of a built-in roll bar. In keeping with
that tradition for constant and never-ending improvement from the
factory and the growing trend toward carefully tweaked Outlaw 911
cars, this spectacular 1970 Porsche 911T Targa is one we feel the
Porsche factory should have built.The product of a freshly
completed professional restoration and build to amazing standards
of detail and quality, this 1970 Porsche 911T Targa is an exciting
find for Porsche fans everywhere and one that will deliver an
amazing all-around experience on the open road. Built with a clear
vision of the ultimate 1970 Porsche 911T Targa, the current owner
had the car dismantled and the body stripped to bare metal,
rust-repaired, and carefully fitted with slightly flared all steel
rear-quarter panels allowing wider wheels and tires. Following
painstaking metal finishing and preparation, the bodyshell was
totally repainted in Porsche Slate Grey (8601) two-stage paint,
with flawless results. The removable Targa roof was rebuilt
internally as well, for proper fit and finish. Custom touches
include de-trimmed bumpers, plus an updated engine grille, new
signal lights, a deeper S front air dam, added fog lights mounted
to the front-bumper grilles, and sport-style rear bumper guards
with deleted rubber strips. The interior was fully restored and
upgraded in keeping with the rest of the car, including
installation of new reproduction Recaro sport seats featuring OEM
Porsche vinyl and a new Porsche OEM dash board, complemented by
356-specification short-pile carpeting. New door panels include
custom door cards and OEM Porsche armrests. A period-appearing
radio includes Bluetooth connectivity and drives new speakers for
additional entertainment as desired. A real wood shift knob,
handsome Momo Prototipo steering wheel, and period key fob greet
the driver, and a handsome set of Car Bone tailored floor mats
protect the cars interior and front luggage compartment. Mechanical
systems were upgraded to match, with the Porsches engine fully
rebuilt and uprated, with work including porting and polishing of
the cylinder heads and installation of 911E-specification cams.
Other highlights include upgraded Zenith carburetors, an electronic
ignition system, correct new batteries, and stainless steel exhaust
headers feeding a great-sounding Dansk Outlaw twin-outlet muffler.
A desirable Porsche Type 915 5-speed transmission is rebuilt and
delivers the vehicles newfound power easier shift action, thanks to
its more logical dogleg-free shift pattern. Handling was totally
upgraded to match, with the 911 riding on a fully adjustable
Elephant Racing suspension system, suitable for street or track
use, at a $14,000 installed cost. Rolling stock includes a set of
Fuchs-style Maxilite wheels with ceramic-coated rims from Stoddard,
shod by new period-style Pirelli tires and secured by Rennline
wheel lugs and spacers. Restored and modified for the current owner
at a cost of more than $60,000, this awesome 1970 Porsche 911T
Targa has been driven less than 100 miles for testing and final
sorting since completion. According to the owner, it handles
incredibly and pulls much stronger than a stock 911T. Accompanied
by an owners manual and Porsche Certificate of Authenticity
detailing the cars original equipment and data, this stunning 911T
Targa also comes with the original steering wheel and original
rear-deck grille, plus full digital photo-documentation of the
restoration and many upgrades made to the car. Contact us now to
