Porsche 911 S Targa

Vehicle Description

It is fiery red. It is a Porsche, and not just any – it is the 911 Targa, the mother of all sports cars as it were, for generations of people. This specimen was originally delivered to the US and reimported in 2015. The VIN reveals that this is an early 1975 model, built in 1974, and since it is a 911 “S” Targa, it comes with the six cylinder engine producing 129 kW (175 hp) of power from 2.7 litres of capacity. The engine sends drive to the rear wheels by means of the 915/40 gearbox, a 5-speed manual.
On the 5-digit odometer, an unwarranted mileage of 31,500 mls is displayed.
The interior of this 911 has at one point been refurbished, including new door side panels and dashboard. The tan leatherette seats look good. The exterior, by contrast, is in a condition which most people would not find agreeable: Scratches, dents, clearly visible repainting and open holes from removed fastenings on the rear lid make it clear that there’s a lot to be done.
This 911 runs on bi-colour black / silver “cleaver rims” which will need to be addressed too. All in all this is an attractively priced restoration project and your chance to get hold of a 1974 Targa that gives you more than just one option for the future: “The full monty” or just a quick prettyfication for use as a daily driver… you decide!

The second generation of the Porsche 911 (G model) came on the market in 1973 as a successor to the Porsche 911 (original model). It was a 2+2-seater sports car and available as coupé, convertible (as of 1983), Targa and Speedster.

The 911 was equipped with the following engines: 2.7 to 3.0 litre petrol engine (150-188 hp) and, for the Carrera version, 2.7 to 3.2 litre petrol engine (200-231 hp). The last Porsche 911 G-model rolled off the production line in 1989.

This car is almost a must in any good garage!
