The paintwork is in excellent condition and features an RSR-style front bumper, custom rear bumper, ducktail, H4 European headlights, and Carrera side script. The interior has been completely reupholstered, featuring a leather-wrapped Prototipo steering wheel, a leather dash, green German square weave carpet kit, RS-style door panels, a black headliner, a roll bar, and custom sport seats trimmed with green houndstooth inserts. All of the gauges have been detailed and function properly, including a custom 10k R Gruppe tachometer. The 911 rides on 7- and 8-inch Fuchs 15” alloy wheels with Pirelli P Zero tires—205/50 ZR 15 in the front and 225/50 ZR 15 in the rear. The ride height has been lowered to European specifications, corner balanced, and aligned. The undercarriage is original, solid, rust-free, and beautifully detailed.
In the late 1980s, this 911 Carrera Coupe underwent a significant driveline upgrade, receiving a 3.2-liter Carrera engine paired with a 915 five-speed manual transmission—delivering enhanced reliability and performance. In the early 1990s, the Carrera was acquired by a Southern California PCA member, who commissioned a top-end engine rebuild. Over the following decade, the Carrera received extensive performance and chassis upgrades, including Turbo tie rods, Carrera adjustable rear spring plates, Nylatron bushings, Charlie Spira “Charlie Bars” sway bars (7/8″ front and 1″ rear), 25 mm rear torsion bars, Carrera aluminum front crossmember, and a Porsche short-shift kit. The braking system was upgraded with 911 3.2 Carrera rotors and calipers, steel-braded brake lines, and a radiator-style front oil cooler was installed. Additional refinements included a low oil pressure warning system, calibrated oil temperature gauge, revised throttle body, extrude-honed intake manifolds, reinforced sway bar mounts, and Carrera cabriolet engine mounts.
In 2013, the Carrera underwent a comprehensive mechanical inspection and was serviced by TLG Auto in North Hollywood, California. TLG performed a comprehensive evaluation, including a compression test of 180–190 psi across all cylinders, along with valve adjustments, ignition tuning, and replacement of the shifter bushings, axle boots, and front wheel bearings. Also, a new alternator, oil lines, and Porterfield brake pads were installed.
In 2014, TRE Motorsports of Van Nuys, California, rebuilt the transmission with a limited-slip differential and short-ratio gears for enhanced performance. A Wevo shifter, 911R muffler, and stainless-steel headers were installed. The front and rear suspension were completely disassembled and rebuilt. A TRE roll bar was also fitted to further refine the driving experience. The 3.2-liter engine was tuned with a Steve Wong performance chip, significantly improving throttle response and drivability. In total, over $20,000 was invested in these enhancements, ensuring this Carrera delivers both reliability and performance.
1975 Carrera Coupe presents a compelling opportunity to acquire an extremely well-documented, enthusiast-prepared example of one of the final 911 Carreras—an increasingly collectible bridge between the classic 2.7-liter era and the modern 3.2s that followed.
