This exceptional 1983 Porsche 911 SC Targa represents a rare opportunity to acquire an air-cooled 911 with an unusually well-documented restoration history.
The car was selected and comprehensively restored by Porsche Norwell as its entry in the Porsche Classic Restoration Competition. The restoration was performed by Porsche-trained technicians with the goal of returning the car to the quality, appearance, and driving character expected of a properly restored classic Porsche.
The car was extensively disassembled and restored, including a complete rebuild of its 3.0-liter air-cooled flat-six, along with extensive work to the chassis, suspension, braking system, electrical system, and interior. Original components were retained and refurbished where appropriate, while replacement components were sourced through Porsche Classic.
The result is a striking SC Targa finished in Slate Gray with a Cancan Red leather interior, complemented by classic Fuchs wheels, Bilstein suspension, refurbished instrumentation, a Porsche Classic Bluetooth radio, sport steering wheel, and distinctive wood shift knob.
Equally important is the documentation accompanying the car. It includes a Porsche Classic Technical Certificate, restoration records, and extensive photographic documentation of the restoration. The Porsche Classic certificate documents the vehicle's engine and transmission numbers and confirms that they correspond with Porsche's original records.
The Porsche Classic inspection also documented passing results across the engine, transmission, suspension, braking system, electrical systems, body, paintwork, interior, and other inspected components.
The current owner acquired the car in March 2023, following completion of the restoration, and it has remained in excellent running and driving condition.
For the collector or enthusiast looking for something beyond a typical restored SC, this Targa offers an unusual combination of the analog character of a classic air-cooled 911, a dramatic Slate Gray/Cancan Red presentation, and restoration provenance that can be traced directly to a Porsche Classic Restoration Competition project.
