1971 Porsche 911S Targa Introducing this recently
uncovered 1971 Porsche 911S Targa, a matching-numbers example that
has remained with one family from new. This classic car represents
an authentic snapshot of early 1970s Porsche engineering and
design, offering the character and mechanical purity that made the
long-hood 911 an icon.Originally ordered in the highly desirable
factory color Tangerine (2310) with a black interior, this 911S
Targa presents a project car that retains strong originality
throughout. The classic Targa body style is highlighted by the
brushed Targa bar and signature wraparound rear glass, a defining
feature of the era. While time and storage have left their marks,
the car retains its core identity and correct configuration, making
it an appealing candidate for preservation or
restoration.Highlights:- One-Family Owned from New- Factory Color
