Vehicle Detail
Vehicle Description This 1974 Porsche 911 Targa is presented in WHITE with black interior. It has a 5 speed manual transmission. Its four wheel disc brakes. Other optiONS, Am/FM with cassette and leather interior. A brevia history of the 911 is as follows: Based on the previous version of Porsche 911 Targa launched in 1967, the 1974 model was pretty similar with its predecessor, packing almost the same design and technical features. However, the new Targa came with a choice of three engines, 2.7-, 3.0- and 3.2-liter, producing 150, 180 and 231 horsepower respectively. This one has the 2.7 liter version. Similar to the older edition, the new Targa, along with all the other variants of the car included in the 930 series, was manufactured until 1989 when the German manufacturer brought out a whole new range of vehicles. The Porsche 911 continued its winning ways for 1973. Changes for that year's F-Series models began with big black-rubber bumper guards and steel reinforcing door beams per federal mandate, plus distinctive "cookie-cutter" alloy wheels for the E. Engines stayed the same through mid-model year, when the T gained Bosch's new K-Jetronic fuel injection (a.k.a. CIS -- Continuous Injection System), good for an extra 10 DIN horsepower European (seven SAE).Despite a now decade-old basic design, the 911 seemed to have aged hardly at all. Of course, it was still getting better -- and not a moment too soon, given the upheavals that rocked the American auto industry for model-year 1974. The toughest U.S. emissions standards ever made most engines less efficient than ever. A new federal edict for 5-mph bumpers brought power-sapping weight and ugly looks to too many cars. Inflation was still pushing prices up and sales down, even as soaring insurance rates continued devastating the ranks of performance machines. Much of the groundwork for the '74s was laid in 1973 with a very special European 911: the Carrera RS. The initials meant Rennsport ("racing sport"), signifying a competition Porsche -- here, a 911 trimmed and tuned for the Group 4 GT class. Rules specified a minimum 500 be sold, and Porsche deliberately held the price to the equivalent of about $10,000 in Germany to ensure they would. The engine is a Air Cooled Flat-6 displacement 2687 cc / 164.0 cu in /Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection compression 8.0:1 power 150 bhp @ 5700 rpm Rear Engine / RWD length 168.9 in top speed 130.5 mph 21.1 US CALL for more information. 214 229 2235.
