1976 Porsche 911 S Turbo Look Coupe 2-Door 3.0 L

Description for Porsche 911 1976

THIS IS A 1976 911S IT HAS BEEN REPAINTED ONLY ONCE AT THE SAME TIME THE 930 STEEL FENDERS WERE WELDED ON. THE CAR IS STILL ITS ORIGINAL COLOR WHICH IS "AZURE BLUE" AND IT LOOKS LIKE A MIDNIGHT BLUE COLOR. THE CAR ALSO HAS BEEN UPGRADED FROM THE 2.7 LITER ENGINE WITH THE OLD MAGNESIUM ENGINE CASE WHICH CAUSED CYLINDER HEAD STUD PROBLEMS ALONG WITH COMPRESSION LOSS AND OIL LEAKS AND REPAIRS WHICH WENT ON FOR EVER. I FINALLY GOT FED UP WITH THE PROBLEMS AND BOUGHT A 1980 911SC 3.0 LITER ENGINE WITH THE ALUMINUM ENGINE CASE AND HAD IT GONE THROUGH. THE CYLINDER HEAD STUDS WERE UPDATED TO THE RACEWEAR BRAND AND THE CARRERA OIL FED CHAIN TENSIONER KITS WERE INSTALLED AND THE ALUMINUM CASED 915 TRANSMISSION AS WELL.A NEW CLUTCH WAS ALSO INSTALLED AND THE A/C IS WORKING. THE CAR HAS HAD POWER WINDOWS ADDED. IT HAS NEVER HAD ANY MAJOR ACCIDENTS AND THE ONE REPAINT I SPOKE OF WAS BACK IN THE YEAR 1989 WHEN THE FACTORY STEEL 930 WIDE BODY FENDERS WERE WELDED ON. IT ALSO HAS THE RUNNER BOARDS AND THE REAR BRAKE VENTS INSTALLED JUST LIKE THE SLANT NOSE 930 HAD WHEN IT CAME OUT IN 1987. THE PAINT WORK WAS DONE VERY NICE WITH SIKKENS BASE COAT/ CLEAR COAT POLYEURETHANE PAINT. IT HAS BEEN A LONG TIME AND THERE ARE SOME DINGS AND SCRATCHES AND CAN BE SEEN ON THE PICTURES. THERE ARE NO MAJOR DENTS OR DINGS WHICH CAN BE SEEN FROM FAR BUT WHEN UP CLOSE THINGS LIKE DOOR DINGS AND ROAD CHIPS CAN BE SEEN AND ARE PRESENT. THE LEFT REAR WHEEL WAS IMPROPERLY SPACED AND THE FENDER WAS DAMAGED BY THE WHEEL HITTING IT OVER A BUMP. IT WAS ONLY RECENTLY REPAIRED BY THE INSTALLER. THEY DID A DECENT JOB ALTHOUGH THE PAINT FINISH IS NOT LIKE THE PAINT WAS ORIGINALLY DONE. THE CAR RUNS NICELY AND WITH THE 3.0 LITER ENGINE HAS STRONG ACCELERATION AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN A VERY RELIABLE CAR. THIS IS THE TYPE OF 911 WHICH MUST BE SEEN TO APPRECIATE. THE CAR RECENTLY CAME OUT OF ALMOST A TEN YEAR STORAGE AND THE FUEL SYSTEM ALONG WITH THE BRAKES HAD TO BE REPLACED AND / OR REPAIRED. THE TIRES AND RIMS WERE JUST REPLACED WITH AN AFTERMARKET TYPE WITH 19" X 10" IN THE REAR AND 19" X 7.5" IN THE FRONT. IT HAS A AFTERMARKET SOUND SYSTEM WHICH WAS INSTALLED AND THE SUNROOF IS NOT PRESENTLY WORKING. THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE DRIVEN TO APPRECIATE ITS FULL CAPACITY BECAUSE IT DRIVES BETTER THAN IT LOOKS. THE CAR WAS ALWAYS WELL MAINTAINED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN HOME IN HAWAII FOR ALL OF ITS LIFE. SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS MUST BE MADE FOR DELIVERY TO ANY 48 STATE DESTINATION. THE COST OF SHIPPING IS AROUND $1200.00. PLEASE KEEP THIS IN MIND WHEN BIDDING ON MY 911. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND HAVE A GREAT DAY.
