This 1981 Porsche 911SC Targa was purchased new by the seller and is powered by a 3.0-liter flat-six paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Finished in Guards Red over black leather upholstery, it is equipped with 16″ Fuchs-style alloy wheels, a removable roof panel, fog lights, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, air conditioning, power windows, and a Continental CD stereo. This 911SC Targa is now offered with a tool kit, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean New York title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Guards Red (027) and features a removable roof panel, a black Targa bar, front fog lights, dual side mirrors, and rear bumperettes. The windshield-washer pump was replaced in 2021, and photos showing door dings as well as chipped and scraped paint are provided in the gallery below.
Fuchs-style 16″ alloy wheels with black-finished centers are mounted with a mixed set of Pirelli Cinturato P7 front and P7000 Super Sport rear tires. Braking is provided by power-assisted four-wheel discs with ventilated rotors.
The front seats are upholstered in black leather, and the dashboard, door panels, and folding rear seats are trimmed to match. Additional appointments include air conditioning and power windows as well as a Continental CD stereo that was installed in 2021 along with replacement speakers.
The leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel frames a central tachometer with a 6,300-rpm redline as well as a 170 -mph speedometer, a clock, and gauges for oil level, oil temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. In 2021, the steering-column bushing and speedometer transmitter were replaced. The six-digit odometer shows 80k miles, all of which were added under current ownership. Mileage inconsistencies are noted in July 1999 and May 2024 entries on the Carfax report, and true mileage is unknown.
The 3.0-liter flat-six features Bosch fuel injection and was factory rated at 172 horsepower and 189 lb-ft of torque. Work in 2021-22 included adjusting the CIS sensor plate, cleaning the spark plugs and injector nozzles, and replacing the battery, alternator belt, and heater hose. A tune-up was reportedly carried out in May 2024.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Type 915 five-speed manual transaxle.
The Carfax report notes the aforementioned mileage inconsistencies, is free of accident or damage entries, and lists history in New York.
