Black Leather (Code 68) Interior, Only 70,774 original miles since

Exterior Mirror, Sport Seats, Black Roofliner and Electric Sunroof.
�Same owner for last 15 years. Certificate of Authenticity, Numbers
matching engine and transmission, Pre Sale Inspection and
Compression Check just performed by Hennessey Porsche. �All
original, unmolested, and non-restored condition, absolutely rust
free example.�The 930 was unveiled at the Frankfurt Auto Show in
1973 as the Carrera Turbo. �Employing the now iconic wide body and
curvaceous body lines of the Carrera RS 3.0 but with distinctive
new front and rear spoiler design. �The Carerra Turbo became an
instant sensation. �The car was released in the North American
Market in 1976 as the 911 Turbo and featured a 3.0L Turbocharged
engine. �In 1978 Porsche upgraded the engine to a 3.3L Intercooled
version producing 300HP and 304 lb-ft, endowing the Turbo to reach
a top speed of 165mph. �The fastest US car at the time. �Also
introduced on the 3.3L Turbos was a new rear wing to clear the
intercooler and a 4-piston braking system from the 917 racecar.
�The 3.3L Turbo was built for the US market for only the 1978 and
1979 model year before US emissions standards forced it from the
market until its reintroduction in 1986. �Significant air cooled
Porsche's have seen a tremendous appreciation in value in recent
years, due in part to their analog driving experience and genuine
blue chip collectability. �Early Turbo models in original condition
are virtually non-existent, and will continue to lead the marque in
value into the next decade. ��This particular example, the
#729/1,200 built has had the same owner for last 15 years. �It was
sold by us in 2001, after we took it on trade from a gentleman in
Oregon. The car was sold new in Texas. �A previous owner had the DP
style front bumper and 17" Porsche Cup Wheels installed. �The car
has had a fastidious ownership, always serviced at Porsche
dealerships (If they had a technician familiar enough and skilled
enough to understand the car) or independent specialty Porsche
shops. �It has always been garage kept, and never driven in poor
weather conditions. �The vehicle is presented in its original Black
(A1) paint, which shows exceptionally well. �Other than some slight
rock chipping as one would expect from the miles, the exterior is
virtually blemish free. �The Black leather interior presents in
great shape with no rips, tears, or bolster wear. �Headliner is in
fantastic shape, as are the carpets. �This vehicle was also ordered
with the rare limited slip differential and factory sport seats.
�Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is available. �The vehicle just
completed a rigorous pre-sale inspection with compression check at
Hennessey Porsche. �The compression is as follows: cylinder: 1=110,
1=110, 3=115, 4=110, 5=115, 6=110. �They noted that the vehicle
checked out remarkably well and showed no signs of rust. �They were
able to also verify that the engine and transmission numbers match
the COA.��For more information on this sensational 1979 Porsche 930
