Vehicle Detail

You are bidding on a hard to find non-running 1978 Porsche 911SC Targa. This is an excellent project car for the Porsche lover. The previous owner bought this car used in 1978 from Novak Porsche Audi in Omaha, Nebraska. At the time the car only had 2,038 miles. I do have the purchase agreement and odometer mileage statement from that purchase. I also have many maintenance records that came with the car. We have looked the car over and it seems complete. The body is in great condition for a 35 year old car that has sat for a long period of time. There is no rust and no damage to the body and the floors are very solid. The paint looks to be original except for an area on the left rear quarter that looks to be painted and some clear coming off. It is hard to tell that area has been painted though. The car would look great with just a buff and wax but it depends on how far of a restore job a person wants to do with it. The top is in great condition and can be reused but the inside liner of it needs redone. The glass is in great condition with cracks or chips. The wheels are in excellent condition. There is no damage what so ever and the center caps are just as clean. I don't think they need any reconditioning but they will need new tires on them because these are old. Mechanically the car is not running and we have not tried to get it running. The car has sat for many years so I'm sure the drivetrain needs to be rebuilt. It is a 3.0L 6-Cyl with a 5-spd manual transmission. A/C compressor is there but I do not know the condition as the car does not run. The interior is actually in decent condition. The dash has a small crack near the passenger defrost vent and the glove box needs repaired. The threads on the steering wheel cover are coming apart. The car panels and rear seats are in great shape and could probably just be cleaned up. The front seats are leather with plaid cloth inserts that need redone. The carpet should be replaced. The trunk has the original space saver spare. I do have a clean and clear title. Vehicle can be seen at: Nelson Automotive - 300 Sandpiper Ct., Polk City, IA. 50226 - (515) 984-9600 This vehicle will be sold AS-IS, NO WARRANTY.
