For Sale: 1979 Porsche 911 in Savannah, Georgia

Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1979 Porsche 911SC Coupe. Finished in Grand Prix White over Cork leatherette interior, this car has been garage-kept by the same Georgia-based collector-owner since 2009; he has added 15,000 miles during his 16-year ownership, averaging just under 1,000 miles per year. Paint and body present to a nice driver standard; excellent original underside with no trace of rust or prior repair (front pan, floors, rockers, and torsion bar areas all look particularly good). 16-inch Fuchs wheels are in great shape; tires have plenty of tread but were installed in 2009 (and are due for replacement soon thanks only to age).

Interior presents nicely in "cork" leatherette; records indicate new carpet and headliner in 1997, and the front seats and rear seats backs have also been reupholstered at some point to a nice standard. Excellent door panels, seat upholstery and steering wheel; dash has a few cracks consistent with age. All gauges are working, including the clock, with the exception of the ambient thermometer in the center console. Horn, wipers, lights, stereo, sunroof, etc. are all fully functional. A/C has been upgraded to a Sanden-style compressor running R134a and is working.

The 3.0 liter flat six runs very smoothly and pulls strong; it's mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Having owned and driven several dozen G-body 911s, we can say with confidence that this one runs and drives very well. Service records date to 1997, and the original service book is stamped through 1996. Sold new in Dothan, Ala., this SC has remained in Alabama and Georgia its entire life. We believe the indicated mileage, at 99k, is accurate.

Original owner's manual, stamped service book, service records, jack, spare, and factory tools are included with the sale. For more information about this 1979 Porsche 911 SC for sale at Motorcar Studio in Savannah, please call 912-235-0435.
