1979 Porsche 911 Sc Targa 2-door 3.0l 60408 Miles Original Survivor Very Nice on 2040-cars
Easton, Pennsylvania, United States
This auction is for a 1979 Porsche 911 Targa that is equipped with a 5 speed 912 transmission and the 3.0 engine. I believe these are original to the car but do not have the COA to verify. I purchased this car several months ago from a long time owner that left it sit in a dry garage for over 15 years. I have sorted it out to the point where it is a very nice driver. Engine starts easily and only smokes a little after initial start up as most do. Trans shifts up well but the past owner had a short shift kit installed and it needs to be adjusted to work extremely well. In order to get it into 1st gear car must be stopped fully. The Porsche tag on the drivers side shows this was built 1/79 and the paint code is 30T-9-3 which is a Light Blue Metallic with the bright blue interior and leather seats. The interior is very nice and the dash has no cracks. The carpet cover to protect it will go with the car. The original black carpeting is in very good condition and the nearly new coca mats with matching blue highlights will go with the car. All gauges work including the clock. There is absolutely NO RUST on this car, the under carriage, pans and rockers are extremely clean. This car is not perfect and does have a couple small stone chips and one very small ding on the passenger door lower left corner which is hard to see in the photos. The engine starts easily, runs strong and smokes a little bit after start up after it has sat for several days. It has had a recent oil and filter change using a Porsche oil filter. This vehicle has a A/C unit installed but did not blow cold air when I purchased it. I removed the A/C Compressor but left everything else on the car in case someone wanted to put it back into service and the compressor and bracket will be included in the auction. The trunk is extremely clean and the car comes with it's original tool kit along with a used but good extra fan belt that has the Porsche name on it. The box shown in the photo has a new Porsche fuel filter for the car that will also go with it. The tires have very little wear and are Yokohama AVID V45's 205/55R16 89V. The wheels are in very nice condition for the age of the vehicle.. I have posted photos of all. Comes with 2 sets of keys as shown The Targa top shows a little wear from age. This vehicle has a current PA State inspection. I have posted many photos of the car for you to determine the condition and if this car is right for you, all sales are final. If there is something you would like to see in a photo please contact me. I have included a Buy it Now price in case you do not want to wait till the end of the auction - The only way I will end this auction early is if someone selects the Buy it Now price or I have made a mistake in the listing. This vehicle is being sold As Is Where Is and the buyer is responsible for all transportation arrangements and costs. If you would like to view the vehicle please contact me to make an appointment. No Joy Rides. No Dreamers. High bidder will be the new owner. $1000 deposit within 24 hours of the close of the auction and payment in full is due within 7 days of auction unless prior arrangements have been made. If you would like to speak to me concerning this vehicle please email me your phone number and I will call you ASAP. |

Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.
Porsche reveals new LMP1 racecar testing ahead of 2014 Le Mans debut
Wed, 12 Jun 2013Getting ready for its triumphant return to the premier racing class of Le Mans, Porsche has released a handful of images showing its new LMP1 racecar testing. Porsche hasn't run a car in the Prototype class at 24 Hours of Le Mans since 2009, but this racecar - still veiled in secrecy - will be expected to battle against the Audi and Toyota LMP1 Prototypes to help bring Porsche its 17th Le Mans victory.
Aside from knowing that it will use a hybrid powertrain to meet LMP1 rules, there are no other details about the car... including its name or potential sponsors. In the meantime, Porsche has set up a microsite, called Mission 2014, to share its extensive history racing at Le Mans. Also, be sure to check out some of the past videos Porsche has released as it gears up for its reborn LMP1 program.
Roger Rodas' widow suing Porsche over Carrera GT crash
Tue, 13 May 2014
Investigations undertaken by local law enforcement may have vindicated Porsche from any wrongdoing in the crash that killed actor Paul Walker and racing driver Roger Rodas last year, but the latter's widow is apparently not convinced. According to emerging reports, Kristine Rodas has filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages from Porsche Cars North America.
In her suit filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court, Rodas' attorney Mark Geragos reportedly disputes the findings of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, which asserted that the vehicle was traveling at an unsafe speed of 90 miles per hour on city streets, identifying the speed as the cause of the accident. Instead the lawsuit claims that the vehicle was only going 55 mph and that the cause of the crash was improper equipment - namely a faulty right rear suspension and the lack of a crash cage and proper fuel tank.
