"The 1977 Porsche 911S Targa is a defining sports car from
Porsche's "G-Body" era, celebrated for combining open-air driving
flexibility with the structural safety of a fixed roll bar. The
word Targa means "shield" or "plate" in Italian, but Porsche chose
it to honor their racing legacy. Porsche dominated the Targa
Florio, an incredibly grueling, open-road endurance race held in
the mountains of Sicily. The name perfectly linked open-top road
driving with high-performance motorsport history."
This 1977 Porsche 911S Targa is finished in the rare color of
Sienna Metallic over a Cork leatherette interior. It is powered by
the legendary 2.7-liter naturally aspirated flat-six engine,
factory rated at 165 horsepower and 176 lb.-ft of torque and paired
with a 5-speed manual transmission.
The 2.7-liter motor was rebuilt in 2006 at 123,487 miles by
Stuttgart Northeast and continues to run smoothly. This 911 has
been continuously maintained and upgraded as needed and is well
documented.
The Sienna Metallic paint, although twenty plus years old,
maintains a great shine and is void of any apparent corrosion but
is showing signs of age degradation. The Cork interior shows well
and appears mostly in factory configuration with the exception of
an upgraded Pioneer stereo. Although originally an AC car the
components have been removed.
The underside of this Porsche 911S appears in original condition
with no obvious deterioration or corrosion.
The 15" Fuchs wheels are wrapped in newer Bridgestone tires.
Please note sometime after the motor was rebuilt the odometer
stopped working at 125,355 miles which are now indicated on the
odometer.
This well-maintained 1977 Porsche 911S Targa is ready for its next
Porsche meet or simply a spirited drive down a winding road. Either
way, it is sure to put a smile on your face.
