This is a beautiful running and driving ’75 US spec Carrera. It is not a concours trailer queen, but instead is a great near-original. Approximately 400 of these cars were made for the US market for the 1975 model year. It appears to have been pampered all its life, with no evidence of accident damage or rust issues. I have ownership and service history back to 1975, as well as the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Original jack, tools, owners manual, and keys are still with the car. Equipment on this car includes leather sport seats, air conditioning, and factory electric sunroof. The car has just received a major engine out service by Perfect Power (details below), one of the leading independent Porsche shops in the midwest. The photos really don’t do the car justice. It also drives as tight and solid as you’d expect of a well-kept 911. I just completed a 200 mile trip in this car. It ran and drove perfectly. The car can be driven and enjoyed as is, with no need to be cosmetically restored. All factory ID tags are present. The mileage on the odometer is miles over 100,000; but you’d never know it to look at it. As r.o.w. Carrera prices have risen to over $300,000 in some cases, these US cars have also increased in collectability and value. You’d be hard pressed to find a more original, more well-kept example. OVER 100 DETAILED PHOTOS AT: http://s526.photobucket.com/user/racer3344/library/ BODY: The car has been a California and Colorado car most of its life, with very limited use in Illinois ( approx. 1,500 miles) in the last few years. It shows no evidence of rust repair ever. Floors and trunk are excellent both inside and underneath. There is even a considerable amount of the factory cosmoline on the underside. The panel gaps are tight and flush. The body has had one very nice repaint in its original Light Yellow some time in the past. There are some chips from normal use. Body rubber trim and weatherstrips are also in very good shape. This car gets a lot of attention and compliments. INTERIOR: Everything is original Porsche as far as I can tell. Very good to excellent carpets, door panels, dash, dash top, headliner and original steering wheel. Seat leather is excellent for its age, supple, with good color, and no rips or tears of any significance. ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN: Original engine and transmission are confirmed by the Porsche COA. Engine was rebuilt about 37,000 miles ago. Just completed a fresh engine out service, with reseal of engine and trans. Valves and rocker shafts were adjusted at this time. New plug wires, many gaskets and seals replaced as needed. Clutch assembly was replaced, synchros inspected, and transmission case resealed during this service. Receipts are available STEERING AND SUSPENSION: Aligned and corner weighted about 1,500 miles ago. Everything tight and operating as it should. Steering is typically smooth and light with no excess play. The car rides and handles very well. BRAKES: System inspected. Everything is in good working order. Plenty of pad life left. No pulsation. Parking / emergency brake also works properly. ELECTRICAL and INSTRUMENTS. A/C blows cold, and has been updated to 134a refrigerant. Charging system working properly. All lights, instruments, sunroof, Blaupunkt cassette radio, windows, horn and fan in proper working order. Even the seat belt buzzer and warning light are working. WHEELS and TIRES: Bridgestone Potenza 195/65 and 215/60 x 15 tires with about 1,500 miles of use. Original Fuchs 15x7 and 15x8’’ wheels show some wear and tear from normal use, and rims appear to have their original dual anodized finish.
