This is a no reserve auction for a 1977 Porsche 924 Martini & Rossi edition. Approximately 3000 of the cars were produced to commemorate Porsche’s racing victories in the previous years with a plaque on the center console of the car to this end. This particular car was originally sold in Portland Oregon in 1977 and then purchased by the previous owner in 1978 and brought back to Seattle Washington where it spent the remainder of it’s life until I purchased the car last year and brought it back home to Portland. Exterior and Body: The body is in decent condition for a car of this age. There is no major rust anywhere to be found although there are some dings and touchups that have been done over the years. It looks to have been repainted at some point in its original color. As can be seen in the photos, the front valence is worn and there are some rock chips on the hood where there is some minor surface rust. Interior: The interior is all original down to the Blaupunkt 8-track tape player and is in fantastic condition. The seats and carpet still have a deep red hue and look great. The original leather steering wheel is still with the car as well. The dash is cracked in places as can be seen in the photos but other than that it looks almost new. Mechanical: The car runs, drives, stops, and shifts through all the gears. I drive the car on the weekends and have not had any issues. There are no fluid leaks since replacing the oil pan gasket, no smoke, and the car starts right up. Since picking up the car I had the following done by an independent Porsche shop. Replaced oil pan gasket, oil filter, fuel filter, and oil change.Replaced Timing belt and tensioner.Replaced engine mounts with new ones from vibra-technics.Replaced headlamp relay and switches so headlights are now fully functioning.New Toyo tires all around. Everything works on the car other than the odometer which stopped at 102892 miles. The previous owner guessed that about 20000 miles were put on since then but I cannot verify so mileage is unknown. Other: The car has had the EGR equipment disabled or removed. The buyer must do due diligence to understand the emissions requirements for their state. The car passed Oregon emissions and has current tags good through November 2015. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements. The car is located in Portland Oregon. This is a 37 year old car and has not undergone any type of complete restoration either mechanical or cosmetic. The car is being sold As Is. I have a clean and clear title for the car and original manuals. A 500 dollar deposit is due within 24 hours of the auction end and the balance is due within 7 days of auction end. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. This is a nice original example of this edition and an interesting part of Porsche’s history. Good luck and happy bidding.
