Porsche 911 SC

Targa, 1978

Highlights

  • "Cockney brown"
  • Partially restored!
  • Very good condition

We are delighted to offer you this special Porsche 911 SC Targa on behalf of our customer.

This vehicle is a 911 SC Targa model delivered in the USA in 1978 in the extremely rare color Cockney Brown, combined with cork-colored leather and light-colored seat center panels – a decidedly elegant and classic color combination. The original owner's manual and service booklet are available. In addition, there is a copy of the title (vehicle registration document) and two invoices from the time in the USA. One of these invoices shows that the Targa had a mileage of 39,110 miles in 2007. The vehicle was imported to Germany in 2011 and has had three owners since then.

The vehicle in detail

The car has been owned by the current seller for almost ten years. He purchased the Targa from an artist who had it partially restored over a period of two years. During this work, the car was completely repainted. The engine and transmission are in very good condition—with smooth engine running, responsive throttle response, and precise shifting. The speedometer was converted from miles (49,013) to kilometers in 2011; the corresponding invoice is available. The mileage appears conclusive based on the available documentation. The original service booklet contains entries from 1978–1980 and 2016–2025.

Both the previous owner and the current owner have had numerous technical repairs carried out over the years to continuously optimize the condition of the vehicle. A detailed overview of this can be found below. A valuation report from 2023 gives the vehicle an overall rating of 2+.

Significant technical work since 2011:

2011: Speedometer conversion from miles to kilometers

2012: Conversion to EU standard, partial overhaul of the engine (including replacement of Dilavar stud bolts, one piston, all piston rings, both camshafts, three rocker arms, sprockets, etc.)

2016: Extensive maintenance including spark plugs, V-belt, stabilizer rubbers, air filter, valve adjustment; installation of Porsche Classic radio and new front speakers

2017: Replacement of rear brake pads, various seals (heat exchanger, exhaust system), installation of rear spacers

2020: Maintenance; replacement of all four shock absorbers and valve cover gaskets; driver and passenger seats reupholstered, including electric driver's seat height and tilt adjustment. The seats come from a Porsche 944 and are covered in original-quality upholstery. Original seats are available (in mint condition).

2021: Maintenance including V-belt

2023: Major maintenance with replacement of oil lines, oil pressure switch, drive shafts, flywheel including clutch, clutch cable, distributor, fuel pump, spark plugs, tie rods (turbo), valve adjustment, transmission oil, and installation of four new tires
