Description:

1972 Porsche Targa
Welcome to my listing, as you look at the pictures you may be wondering why it’s listed as a 1972 911E when it looks like a later model SC. . I will take this opportunity to say that if you are looking for a factory correct 911 please move on as there is nothing here for you, however if you are looking for a great looking, excellent driving, well sorted 911 read on...
This car started life as a long nose 911, but somewhere along the way (before these cars began to fetch prices well into the six figures) someone decided to re-body the car. The car has spent it’s whole life in Southern California so the car is naturally free of any rust. I am not sure what the motivation was to change out the sheet metal, but the car appears to be accident free so I assume that the work was done for aesthetic purposes, quite simply to upgrade the look to a “more modern” 911.
This 911 is a “Frankenstein” with parts sourced from several cars, the tub is a ’72, the body is a ‘78 and the motor and transmission is from an ’86, one thing is for sure…the lighter chassis of the early 911 combined with the larger 3, 2 litre Carrera engine truly makes this a monster! This car is hands down one of the fastest, most responsive 911 I have had had the pleasure of driving.
This is a low mileage example, based on service records, the chassis has about 57, 000 miles, and the drivetrain has approximately 85, 000 (the odometer was transplanted from the same donor car as the engine and transmission).
There is a comprehensive collection of receipts that will accompany this car detailing all of the work performed (most within the last few years). All in all this car has been gone through from bumper to bumper and is a well sorted example.
Various new items and work done within the last few thousand miles:


-New front ball joints and tie rod ends


-New cap, rotor, plugs and wires


-New battery


-All body replaced all around (windows, body, roof)


-New Bilstein dampers (front & rear)


-Transmission rebuilt by TLG with new teeth and synchros


-New aftermarket head unit


-Turbo Valve covers


-New oil cooler lines


-New brake lines


-New motor mounts


-Fuel injectors rebuilt by WitchHunter Performance


-Strut tower bar


-New right side CV boots


-Intake re-sealed


-Targa top re-covered


Not only is the car a pure joy to drive, it is also sinfully beautiful, the paint work was done professionally and of the highest quality is a mile deep. There are some very minor imperfections such as a few minor rock chips, but certainly nothing that detracts from the car as a whole. The car is further complemented by a set of chrome Fuchs.


The interior of this 911 is in good to very good condition, while the seats have been sat in, they are not ripped, nor do they show signs of excessive wear.
This 911 appears to be 100% accident free, is free on any liens, I have a clean title in hand and it is ready for a new home.
