ENGINE
The rebuild included
Valve stem seals
Rocker arm bushings
Piston rings
All bearings
All gaskets and sealing rings
Timing chain and rails
Oil and gas filters
Pressure relief valves
Etc..
Before reassembly the crank and moving parts were verified for clearance by a machine shop.
TRANSMISSION and CLUTCH
The transmission is the stock 5 speed in excellent condition. The pressure plate, disk and bearing were changed.
BRAKES
The front calipers and pads were replaced; the rear brakes are perfect. The master cylinder had a slight leak and was replaced. All brake lines were flushed with new fluid.
BODY
The general condition is better than a car that was used between 1978 and 1994. This vehicle is not the typical Porsche that today is 39 years old (1978-2017).
There is absolutely NO rust whatsoever and no part of the car shows any suspicion signs of rust and this includes the body joints, floor pans, underneath and on all parts supporting the suspension
The body is as straight as a pin and has not been modified. The color does look much better than in the pictures. It is a rich hue of a blend of gold and bronze.
The Targa hoop is stainless steel as the original model. I can include the black version but the stainless one is striking. The headlights have the European look and the covers are chrome.
GLASS
All glass and trim are perfect-no scratches nor annoying glare as older windshields tend to suffer from. It is due to the fact that it was garaged by the previous owner and then stored in heated premises most of its life.
The electric windows operate trouble free.
INTERIOR
The seats are electric and in an as new condition-no marks, blemishes, wear-no excuses.
The dash is without cracks, sun damage or marks.
The carpets had a very mild odor from storage and I replaced all of them. I assure you that any odor is gone!
The headliner of the Targa top is as new.
WHEELS and TIRES
The wheels are original factory Fuchs. They are in excellent condition without scratches or scrapes.

Son of Porsche 911 designer recalls 1963 Frankfurt debut
Wed, 16 Oct 2013
The Goodwood Revival is described by its presenters as the greatest motorsport racing party of the year. We often focus heavily on the motorsports, but you can't forget about the party. For the first preview of the new 911 Turbo in the UK, Porsche recreated its booth from the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963 - the time and place of the original 911's public debut.
Porsche's cameras also caught up with Mark Porsche, the great grandson of Dr. Ferdinand Porsche and son of the late Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" Porsche, who oversaw the design of the 911. Mark Porsche admires the 911's friendly design, which is set off by the round headlights, and says his mother, who was at the original Frankfurt booth in 1963, was milling around the booth at Goodwood - no doubt taking a trip down memory lane.
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.
A few pre-race notes and a lot of photos from the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sat, 14 Jun 2014The 82nd running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans is on.
Audi has won 12 of the last 15 events, the scion of Auto Union is trying to make it 13 this year. To do so, it will have to overcome a situation faced only three other times during its dominance of La Sarthe: underdog status. Toyota has won the first two races of the year and claimed pole for this race, the rumor being that this year it's Toyota's race to lose.
And then there's Porsche. It's been 16 years since the Stuttgart brand raced on the top rung at Le Mans, three years years since it announced its return, just a year since it acquired Mark Webber in a signing that wasn't subtle and a few months since we got eyes on the 919 Hybrid.
