Description
Up for sale is a 1972 911T Targa
This car runs and drives and is a great candidate for a no worry driver or an easy inexpensive restoration. Either way...a GREAT investment!
The car body is exceptional. The floors, fender wells, battery boxes are all rust free. It is virtually rust free and needs VERY little repair. After a thorough inspection, the car also appears to have never been in an accident. All the factory welds are intact an unaltered.
As you can see in the pictures, the car received RS bumpers and had rear ducktail spoiler. I removed the ducktail and installed the correct deck lid and grill. I have also removed the RS front bumper and have the correct factory front bumper. At the time the bumpers were added, the car was painted white to replicate the RS look and the seats were recovered in leather with red piping. The car was painted thoroughly in the trunk and jams. My plan was to paint the car its original color, silver metallic and restore the car to original. However the white paint is presentable if you are looking for a driver.
Though the car runs, it does need a few things since it has been sitting for a number of years. The car will need, at a minimum, the following to make it a dependable driver.
- Tune up the Webers
- Adjust the valves
- Replace the plugs and wires.
- Replace the blinker switch.
- Bleed the brakes and change the pads
- Replace the shifter bushings. The car shifts fine but there is a little play in the shifter.
This is a number matching car with a clean and clear title. The number on the case is verified by the COA. The transmission number is tough to read but I am guessing that the transmission has been replaced some time in the cars history. Most of the time the transmission case number is not listed on the COA but on this car it is noted. Looking at the numbers, it doesn't appear they are correct. The car was a factory air car but it has been removed. Additionally, the MFI was removed at some point and Webers were installed. Though they need adjustment, the car fires up and drives every time.
The car is also an exceptional candidate for what I consider a light restoration. A good repaint to the original color, recovering the seats to the original leatherette, have the steering wheel recovered, add door pockets, and complete the other items noted above and you have a great original car that will turn heads at any Porsche event or car show. Plus, as you know, will be a great investment as it continues to climb in value.
The COA is here and will be included in the sale. Below are the options on the car from its original manufacturing date.
- 10 Black top
- 80 Silver metallic
- 11 Black leatherette
- C02 US Equipment
- 400 Light Metal Wheels 6j x 15
- 185.70.vr15 tires
- 416 Raised steering wheel hub
- 453 Blaupunkt Radio Frankfurt US band
- 470 Comfort Equipment
- 559 Air Conditioning
- Dunlop tires
- VIN # 9112111138
- Engine # 6122670
- Trans # 326368
I also will include the stainless trim that would normally be installed on the exterior of rocker the panel, the blinker switch that needs to be replaced, and the correct radio for the car. I do not have the chrome front and rear bumperettes.
I have displayed a number of photos, to include detailed pictures of the rust areas, in the ad to honestly represent the car. I left some of the surface rust on the car so you can see the cars condition when I bought it. The rust in the floors is simply surface rust. It does not need to be cut out. It simply needs to be scuffed to be removed. I also have the carpet. I just removed it for picture purposes.
I can also send you a flicker link that has over 200 detailed photos of the car. This will give you a great idea of how solid this car is for it's age.
Lastly, I have no problem shipping the car worldwide once full payment is received.
Happy Bidding!

I don't care who you are; when a new Porsche 911 rolls up in your driveway, that's a pretty good day. This was my very first experience with Porsche's 991 911, and after having spent time with just about every tune and trim of the last car, I was hotly anticipating comparing and contrasting.
Somehow (I don't remember sending out any cash-filled, unmarked envelopes) I'd scored a week in the 911 Carrera 4S over a long holiday weekend, too. That meant that I'd get to A) log a ton of miles in one of the best cars in the world, B) get to show-off the Porsche to family and friends and C) tempt cops in three states to pull me over. Good thing I've got the Autoblog traffic lawyer on speed dial...

The 1935 Duesenberg SSJ formerly owned by Gary Cooper sold for a jaw-dropping $22 million over the weekend at the Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach auction, setting a record for the most valuable pre-war car ever sold at auction. It also appears to have become the most expensive American collector car ever sold at auction, eclipsing the very first Shelby Cobra ever made, which sold for $13.75 million in 2016. The Duesenberg was also the lone American-made entrant in the list of top 10 sellers, which was crowded with the names Ferrari and Porsche. You have to go all the way down the list to No. 21 to find the next American car: a 1930 Packard 734 Speedster Phaeton, which sold for a mere $1.127 million. All told, Gooding & Co. said it realized more than $116.5 million in auction sales over the weekend, with a whopping 25 cars sold for north of $1 million, an 84 percent sales rate and an average transaction price of $947,174. Clearly this is how the other half 1 percent lives. Gooding & Co. said there were five world-record sales at the auction. Joining the Duesenberg were a 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial Series II, which sold for $5.005 million; a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta, $6.6 million; a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Speciale, $3.41 million; and a one-of-two 1966 Ferrari Dino Berlinetta GT, $3.08 million. Oh, and that 1969 Ford Bronco test vehicle we told you about? The one that was rebadged by Holman & Moody as a Bronco Hunter? It sold for $121,000, which was well below the expected range of $180,000 to $220,000. Perhaps it was the presence of all those gorgeous Porsche Spyders and Ferraris that meant collectors weren't interested in boxy, utilitarian off-roaders. View 24 Photos Gooding and Co. had expected the convertible Duesenberg coupe to go for more than $10 million. It was one of only two of its kind built by Duesenberg — the other having gone to Clark Gable — with a specially shortened, 125-inch wheelbase and a supercharged straight-eight with double overhead cams, able to produce around 400 horsepower and a top speed of 140 miles per hour. It features a lightweight open-roadster bobtail body produced by LaGrande out of Connersville, Ind. The car was also owned at one point by race driver Briggs Cunningham.

Mercedes-Benz designed the AMG GT to compete head-on with the Porsche 911. It's a clear, singular purpose, and Benz brings a lot of money, technology and race-bred expertise to the fight.
The AMG GT is Merc's followup to the awesome SLS AMG, the retro-modern, gullwing-doored coupe that took us by storm half a decade ago. But this new GT coupe is a more focused sports car than the SLS, rather than an all out supercar capable of extreme performance. It's got a brand-new V8 engine, and state-of-the-art technology that help it to not only be a proper Mercedes, but to be a serious performer.
Mercedes will sell its new baby in two models. The GT S arrives first, in spring 2015, followed by the standard GT in mid-2016. Of course, there's room to grow from there. And while Porsche may have already expanded its 911 range to include a vast variety of models, here's how Stuttgart's icon stacks up against Affalterbach's bad boy.
