This 1977 Porsche 911 Carrera is one of 1,473 3.0-liter-powered
coupes built for the model year and was initially delivered in
Germany. The car was reportedly imported to the US in the mid-1980s
and spent time in South Carolina, where it was acquired by the
seller in 2023. Subsequent work involved a repaint in the factory
Ice Green Metallic along with refinishing the 16? Fuchs wheels,
servicing the rear brakes, resealing the 3.0-liter flat-six,
replacing the clutch, and rebuilding the five-speed manual
transaxle. Equipment includes stainless-steel exhaust components, a
fiberglass whale-tail rear spoiler, and power windows. The car left
the factory in Ice Green Metallic (Y8) and was refinished under
current ownership. Exterior details include a chin spoiler,
body-color mirror caps, an aftermarket whale tail rear spoiler, H4
headlights, RoW rear bumperettes, and a single exhaust outlet.
Fuchs 16? alloy wheels were refinished under current ownership and
feature black centers and polished lips along with 205/55 front and
225/50 rear Kuhmo Ecsta tires. The ride height has been lowered,
and the rear brakes were serviced in 2023 with replacement
calipers, rotors, pads, lines, and sensors. The cabin houses front
bucket seats upholstered in black leatherette with replacement
black velour inserts, which are complemented by individual rear
seats trimmed in black leatherette. Coco mats line the footwells,
and the black dashboard houses controls for the power windows and
defroster. The shifter assembly was overhauled in 2023. The
leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel frames a central
tachometer with a 6,600-rpm redline, a 250-km/h speedometer, a
clock, and gauges for fuel level, oil level, oil temperature, and
oil pressure. The 3.0-liter flat-six shares its die-cast aluminum
housing with the contemporary Turbo Carrera and was rated at 200
horsepower when new. Work performed by Autohaus Inc. of Myrtle
Beach, South Carolina under current ownership involved resealing
the engine and adjusting the valves, as well as replacing the
clutch, fuel pump, fuel accumulator, warm-up regulator, ignition
wires, spark plugs, and engine mounts. An 11-blade fan has been
added. The Type 915 five-speed manual transaxle was rebuilt by 356
Inc. of Bluffton, South Carolina in 2024, at which time the
flywheel, crank pulley seal, and pressure plate were replaced.
Stainless-steel exhaust components were installed under prior
ownership.Contact Kennith Stewart at 803-283-7289 for more
