1984 Porsche 911

For your consideration is my 1984 Porsche 911 that has been backdated to look like a 1973 Carrera RS. This is the ultimate vintage Porsche 911, it combines the speed and reliability of the 1984 3.2L engine, but all the styling of a Porsche Carrera RS. The car has been further improved with upgraded suspension and braking, and is also lighter than a regular 1984 911 as well. If you want the look of a Carrera RS with more speed, more reliability, and without the multimillion dollar price tag, this is it! The longnose conversion was done with a metal hood and fenders, while the front and rear bumper and ducktail are fiberglass. The previous owner was a chief driving instructor for PCA and converted the car to the RS look. While nice, the car was not up to my standard so I repainted the front clip. This is a high quality conversion. I recovered the front Sparco seats in red alcantara, and retrimmed the dash by hand with a red basketweave pattern and added a retro stereo with a 3.5mm audio input. Door cards were also recovered by hand with red leather, and leather pull straps were added. A set of Cobra Daytona seats will also be included with the sale. I installed Cibie rally lights which include the very rare headlight covers. Over $15,000 in recent service has been performed, there has been a leak down test, valve adjustment, fuel filter replacement, belts, the clutch has been checked, new rotors and Hawk HP plus pads have been installed along with stainless steel brake lines, a bump steer kit and new engine and transmission mounts.

Along with my receipts that total over $15,000, I also have a full binder of records from the previous owner, the car is extremely well documented. I have been a PCA member since 1991 and I want to thin out my collection by one. The car has been taken to two driver education events with the Chicago PCA. It is a great driving car, very fun. I get looks and compliments every time I drive the car, more so than any other of my Porsches, even my mint condition 930. At the moment neither the 930 or 356 are for sale.
