1980 Porsche 911 911 Sc Targa on 2040-cars
Rochester, New York, United States
I am always available by mail at: gwendaschiavi@net-c.nl .
I introduce this vehicle as an original issue free excellent example of a Porsche 911 SC (Super Carrera). These air
cooled Porsches are climbing in value and are sought by discerning collectors.
The car is in excellent condition with perfect blemish-free paint-no scratches, dings, stone chips or excuses. 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
rich looking hue of a blend of gold and bronze.
Most important is that there is NO RUST whatsoever and no part of the car shows any suspicion of rust and this
includes the body joints, floor pans, underneath and under moldings. The car was garaged and only used on rain free
days during summer months. This accounts for the low mileage.
All glass and trim is perfect-no scratches or wear. The electric window run well.
The targa top is fine and does not leak.
The interior and leather seats are very well preserved without scratches, tears or marks.(except for 2 inches of
wear on the driver side seat bolster) The dash, door panels and rear deck are excellent. There are no cracks or sun
damage.
The wheels are original factory Fuchs. They are in excellent condition without scratches or scrapes. The
chrome/silver part of each wheel is excellent.
The car has a new set of Yokahama tires as well as a new Porsche factory battery.
The engine has received a complete tune up, plugs, valve adjustments etc. It runs very very smoothly without any
hint of unwanted noises or valve clatter. There are absolutely no issues to this well maintained clean engine.
The transmission is the stock 5 speed manual in perfect condition. It shifts well and smoothly with no hesitation
or crunch when put into its gears. There is no hesitation when engaging first gear.
In conclusion, this is a superior example of what a Porsche SC is all about. The 3.0L engine is described as the
most reliable of the air cooled engines. This example does all that it was designed for-it runs straight, handles
like a Porsche and brakes perfectly. There is nothing to be done to improve it, except for the minor scuff on the
bolster of the driver’s seat.
The reason for the sale is that I purchased a 1967 911 which I must completely restore to the original condition of
the 1967 911 that I owned in 1969.

Father-son team grows close by building tuned Porsche
Mon, 21 Jul 2014We've seen several heartwarming videos of kids bonding over cars with their parents, whether racing together or giving them as gifts. The story of Leh Keen and his father McGrath, though, is somewhat different. Not many dads are looking for a vehicle quite this mental.
As Leh tells it, his dad saw a video online of one of the wild Porsches from Japanese tuner Rauh-Welt Begriff and decided that he needed one of the creations in his own garage. Since Leh knows something about cars himself as a driver for Alex Job Racing in the United SportsCar Championship, McGrath put his son in charge of managing the build from the company.
When the car made it to the US for completion from Rauh's famed builder Nakai, father and son bonded over the red, widebody 993-platform 911. The final product is certainly eye-catching. Scroll down to watch the video that features not only an engrossing father-son tale but also a seriously wicked, tuned Porsche from one of Japan's finest.
Porsche drivers escape this horrific VIR crash unscathed
Mon, 07 Oct 2013There is no doubting the fact that it takes nerves of steel to be a racecar driver, but the same can also be said for motorsports photographers. Case in point: The American Le Mans Series Oak Tree Grand Prix at the Virginia International Raceway where two Porsche 911 racecars crash hard into the tire barrier, but the dedicated cameraman stays with the shot - diving away only at the last second just as the battered No. 31 car (shown above) comes to rest atop the tire barriers just feet from where he was standing.
The crash occurred when the two Porsches charged hard into a corner. Judging by the video, the white No. 48 car appears to not see the orange No. 31 and the two cars make contact, skidding off track hitting the tire barriers at a high rate of speed. Both drivers walked away from the frightening crash, but the video - posted below - shows just how bad things could have been. Hopefully the close call will serve as a lesson for the woman standing in the track marshal's post who has her back to the racing as the two cars barrel directly toward her.
Porsche 911 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash
Sun, 22 Sep 2013As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.
