Single-family ownership for over four (4) decades, believed to be
35,167 original miles, finished in the original factory color
combination - Black (700) with a Tan leather interior. According to
the past owner, this Porsche was first purchased from Westwood
Porsche Audi in Santa Monica, California. Registration cards verify
ownership of the 911 Carrera from 1978 until the late 2000s and was
eventually handed down to the son. It was last serviced by Westwood
Porsche Audi on January 2, 1978, and has been stored in Orange
County ever since. When it came time to sell the Targa it was
offered to a family friend, who had been familiar with the Carrera
since he was four years old.
Since the acquisition, the following has been performed from
2021-2022: replaced fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter, fuel
regulator, spark plugs, air filter, installed new factory exhaust
including heat exchangers, new Pirelli CN36 tires, full brake
service, and the Fuch alloy wheels have been restored. Most
recently on September 2022, Vision Motorsports was commissioned to
perform the following, rebuild the fuel distributor, rebuild the
warm-up regulator, flush fuel lines, replace fan belts, oil
service, brake fluid flush, transmission fluid flush, and install
hot air hoses. The lower valve covers were upgraded to the Turbo
valve covers, the valves were adjusted, and new gaskets were
installed. A full engine service included replacing ignition
points, distributor cap, rotor, set the timing/dwell, and tuned the
CIS injection.
Paint meter readings confirm that the paintwork is all original and
displays some patina for a 911 of this vintage. The exterior
features Carrera script delete, original glass, integrated fog
lights, and a Targa top with a tight seal. The upholstery is in
original condition with new German carpets and a headliner has been
recently installed. Interior options include factory Recaro sport
seats, air conditioning, and an FM/AM cassette tape player. An
original leather-wrapped Carrera steering wheel sits in front of
VDO instrumentation with a 150-mph speedometer and an 8000-rpm
tachometer. The undercarriage remains all original with no signs of
any rust. Staggered, refinished, Fuchs wheels with black center
caps are fitted to Pirelli Cinturato CN36 185 70 R15 fronts and 215
60 R15 rears tires.
Powered by a 2.7-liter flat-six engine, rated at 175 horsepower
with 167 lb-ft of torque with a 5-speed manual transmission (Type
915) and four-wheel disc brakes. Complete with original owner's
manual/maintenance record booklet, tool kit, collapsible spare
tire, registration cards going back to 1978, and recent service
history. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a very
low-production US Carrera Targa in amazing original condition.
