Introduction
Glyn Parry
One of the most iconic versions of the 911, the impact bumper era is arguably one of the most popular too.
The Porsche 911 first arrived in 1964 to replace the 356. The rear-mounted air-cooled engine layout remained the same, however, the 911 switched to unitary construction for the body-shell and dropped the VW-based suspension in favour of the McPherson strut and trailing arm arrangement. Most importantly though, the engine was upgraded to an air-cooled flat six, a legendary change. Two years after the release of the introduction of the original coupe, Porsche announced their convertible variation, named the 'Targa' after their multiple wins in the Sicilian classic. The Targa featured a large roll-over bar to meet safety legislation and removable roof and hood sections that could fit in the front storage space.
We really like the look of this particular 911 SC Targa, coming to market from 7 years of ownership and having been restored to its former glory, this car will ticks a lot of boxes. Finished in a classic colour of Platinum Silver Metallic over beige interior, this UK RHD presents in excellent condition and comes with the UK dealer Sports options of whale tail, front sports spoiler, 16" Fuchs wheels and Bilstein dampers.

Typo which has been rectified. If you look through the service book, you’ll see it says 1997 as per Adams response. Best, Kulraj – Trade Classics
Have the typo’s been rectified for the fact it’s not to Original Factory spec as per the listing and :”He commissioned a full respray and interior refit and trim back to the factory spec for this car”.
Yep, this has been changed. Best, Kulraj – Trade Classics
I see from the service history that it has gone back in mileage or is this a typo and it should read 20/10/1995?? 20.10.1994 Service 68,569 27.04.1995 Service 60,000 18.08.1994 Service 56,000 Have you photos of the vehicle when you bought it as I would be interested to see how bad it was prior to its restoration also what pictures do you have of sorting the rust out during the restoration? Was it a glass out restoration or can I see overspray on the rubbers around the bottom of the Targa screen? Any idea how I can zoom in on… Read more »
Hello Gary, thank you for your comments. I will address them as best I can, as follows: there is no typo on the service dates 20/10/97 mileage reads 68,569. unfortunately, I do not have pictures of the car when I bought it, it was tatty inside and out due to a long lay up with some surface rust here and there, nothing structural, however my instructions to my project manager was to cut out and re-weld any rust that was found. I also visited the restorer weekly to check this and other jobs were correctly carried out. If you look… Read more »
