*1984 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe*The dual pontoon fenders at the
front of the Porsche 911 have always been a signature design
feature of the long-running sports car. But for a few years in the
1980s, the company offered a different front end design, aimed to
imitate the incredibly successful Porsche 935 race car that was
dominating on tracks around the world at the time. These cars were
known as "Flachbau" (meaning flat construction) or in English,
slant nose, for their wide sloping front end and pop-up or inset
headlights. In period, this was a modification largely reserved for
the 930 Turbo, as the cost to do the conversion at the Porsche
factory was immense, but it became a popular modification that was
done with varying degrees of quality on other 911s in the era. This
1984 Porsche 911 Carrera received a slant nose upgrade in the
period and unlike most conversions, was done using all OEM metal
from Porsche to ensure a factory-level of quality.Finished in
Guards Red, this Carrera shows a remarkable 15,411 miles and was
delivered new to what is now Paul Miller Porsche in Parsippany, New
Jersey. The original window sticker show the car was ordered with
15-inch Fuchs wheels, front and rear spoilers, a power sun roof and
black headliner, making for a pretty nicely equipped example in
period. Although little is known about who carried out the
conversion, in person the car looks like it could have been done at
the factory with a great paint match and the aforementioned OEM
steel panels from Porsche. Along with the front end conversion, the
car received updated rear fenders with air-intakes and three-slat
grilles just in front of the rear tires which also would have been
typical equipment on a Porsche-built slant nose. This car sits on a
set of deep-dish Fuchs wheels with an "RSR" finish and a second set
of wheels with new tires are also included in the sale.The interior
is finished in black leather with some red leather interior accents
throughout. Both front and rear seats are standard 1984 911,
wrapped in black leather and comfortable with enough bolstering to
hold you in. The underside of the dash and part of the added
center-stack are wrapped in contrasting red leather, and the new
center stack features an airplane-style altitude gauge, a
Volt-meter and switches/controls for the air conditioning system.
Above that in the dash sits an of-the-era Alpine head unit with a
cassette player and AM/FM capabilities, and additional HVAC
controls are to the left of that. A Momo steering wheel has been
added which frames the large central tachometer and speedometer
placed just in front of the driver.Sitting out back is a 3.2-liter
air cooled flat 6 that produces 207 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of
torque. The engines in the 3.2 Carrera are notorious for being some
of the most stout and dependable motors ever produced by Porsche
and with proper maintenance can see mileage deep into the
six-figures before needing anything major addressed on them. This
engine is then connected to a 5-speed gearbox which sends power to
the rear wheels.In the last few years as the popularity of 1980s
cars has begun to soar, enthusiasts have started to really
appreciate the slant nose 911s with Porsche-built examples
commanding a hefty premium over their non-slant nose counterparts.
With that, good conversions have also become sought after with OEM
metal conversions like this filling the next highest spot on the
desirability list. There are few cars that are greater symbols of
1980s excess than a slant nose 911 and this exceptionally well kept
example is a truly great 911, made even more desirable by its
unique modifications.*Key Features* * Slant Nose Conversion *
