1978 Porsche 911 SC Targa restoration project For Sale
The car was supplied by Archibald Frazer Nash (AFN) from their London Road premises in Isleworth Middlesex.
AFN were the original sole concessionaire for Porsche cars in the UK.
The MOT expired in October, but car has only done a couple of hundred miles since previous mot.
I have mot history from 1991 and over the last 16 years car has only covered a couple of hundred miles per year 2002 miles 121203 milage now 123820.
Owner previous to me owned car from 1998 when I bought car a year ago from a dealer in London. I also have the full ownership history from the DVLA. I have also the COA certificate from Porsche UK.
I have no previous service history for the car. The car was subject to a full repaint sometime in the 1990's and will need painted again as its begining to look tired with a faded front wing and bubbling on rear alloy bumper etc etc. The car is a non sport model so should not have the rear wing fitted (I have a grille to replace this)
Car is a driving restoration in my opinion, but is not rusty, just showing its 40 years as a used car without being pampered at all.
It will need paint, re undersealing, rubbers replaced and general tidying. Engine runs fine , smoky when has been left sitting
(a couple of exhaust valve stem seals are suspect, I noticed this in the ports when changing exhaust). The upgrade to oil fed Carrera tensioners has been done in the past.
So what I have done to car over last year.
I fitted a refurbished set of ATS Cookie cutter alloys (correct for the car) I also have the set which came with the car with tired body coloured paint in the centres.
Pedal box was removed and refurbished with brass bushes, a new clutch pedal assist spring (£50 for a spring !!!) also new clutch cable fitted (had to cut end off old one to get pedals out)
I have fitted a full new exhaust in stainless steel, heat exchangers, cross pipe, sports pre silencer and a main silencer upgrade with 80mm tailpipe.
Oil has been changed with Valvoline VR1 20/ 50 Racing oil and a grnuine Purolator orange filter.
A few bits and bobs still need done on top of general restoration work.
Passenger door doesnt open from outside (pair of handles for refurbising included)
Drivers window doesnt go all the way up (new regulator included)
This doesnt need done, but I bought a barely used set of Bilstien B6 Clubman strut inserts and rear shocks which will be included.
There are odds and ends like some rubbers, new aerial , gearshift bushes etc etc which I have for car, I will include all I have.
So I am not desparate to sell but may consider a px with cash my way for an interesting classic sports car, hot rod, Landrover or Range Rover (modern or old) or maybe an old Harley.
This will have to collected from me on a trailer and any px delivered to me with cleared funds before car is released. I would like £500 deposit by Bank transfer if a deal is agreed.
Please ask any questions, I would prefer the car to be viewed so you can make up your own mind about it.
