Happy "eBaying"! Paul R. Wankle, Pres. Classic Cars Ltd. Pleasanton, CA 925-846-1451 DETAILS & HISTORY - THIS 1983 PORSCHE 911SC TARGA In 1965 Porsche began the 911 model line that has become an icon among sports cars. This 1983 Porsche 911SC Targa represents a limited owner, very well cared for example of the highly sought after mid-1980's Porsche 911SC. This Porsche is a highly unique example which will appeal to the enthusiast or collector who has an interest in a fully documented, unmolested 911 that was delivered new within 60 miles of our location and has remained in Northern California since new. Adding to the cars appeal and rarity, is its one family ownership. Specifically, the car was purchased new on April 1, 1983 and enjoyed by the original owner for 13+ years when it was passed on to a new caregiver, his brother, who registered the Porsche in his and his wife's name on 4/26/96. For the past 20+ years, Mr. H has cherished and cared for the Porsche in the same high quality fashion as his bother ensuring that it received proper maintenance. However, at this time, circumstances require the regrettable sale of this family treasure. Frankly, the documentation and history of this Porsche 911 simply could not be any better. Virtually every new car delivery document, deposit receipts, repair invoices, owner's manuals, registration slips, and other information will accompany the Porsche. This includes the following comprehensive information: - Original Sales Invoice dated 4/1/83 (Desirable options shown on invoice and detailed later in this description) - Receipt from dealer for payment in full by the original buyer - Copy of the original title showing the original lien-holder - Small dealer window sticker reflecting additional dealer added options (Still on the car and shown later in this listing) NOTE: Delivered price in 1983 = $36,945.00! - ORIGINAL window sticker from delivering dealer with all options and vehicle features - Original Owner's Manual (in original folder) including the following: - Warranty & Maintenance Booklet (including business card from original salesperson) including: - Delivery Stamp by Porsche dealer - Inspection stamps ranging from the delivery inspection on 4/1/83 at 31 miles with stamps for servicing by the delivering Porsche dealer/specialist as follows: - 1,368 miles - Oil service & complete 2,000 mile service - 7, 322 miles - Oil service - 13,276 miles - Oil service, maintenance & emission control service - 28,776 miles - 30,000 Major service, oil service, emission service (Compression 160/150/155/155/160/160) - 34,770 miles - Oil service - 37,566 miles - Oil service - 44,470 miles - Oil service Note: Additional, ongoing maintenance is documented with receipts and summarized under the ‽Vehicle Condition” section - Original Blaupunkt Monterey SQR22 brochure (still in car and functional) - Original Porsche key card with factory VIN#'s and numbers for keys - Clifford alarm documentation including codes and brochure (still installed by not functional) - Multiple California registration slips dating back to 1984 and as recent as 2017 (Car registered until 4/26/17 for California buyers) - Original Vehicle Service Contract dated 3/31/83 and valid through 3/31/88 (Unlimited mileage) - Copy of original Warranty from General Warranty Corporation (5 year warranty purchased at time of sale) - Unopened tool bag (in the Porsche wrapped exterior plastic bag including the Porsche issued rubber gloves) - Unused factory spare and jack - Air pump - Front Bra / Nose Cover OVERALL COSMETIC CONDITION From a cosmetic perspective, this car rates extremely high. The optional Pewter metallic paint is not only totally original, but retains its brilliance and remains in excellent condition as a result of the care the Porsche has received. With the exception of extremely minor touch-ups of small nicks (confined to a few on the front bumper that are well done, match virtually extremely well, and are only visible under close, critical scrutiny). The doors are free from dents as are the other panels on the car. Both the front and rear bumper areas are in excellent condition. The Targa top is in very nice original condition with all seals in place and in good shape. All side and rear glass is excellent, and factory original. The Fuchs wheels are in exceptional condition with no curb rash, or damage. The premium Continental high performance summer tires were replaced within the previous 600 miles at which time an alignment was completed. The all black interior shows beautifully and is totally stock and correctly configured down to the cars original, functional Blaupunkt radio. The leather seats, carpeting, and door panels are all excellent. The padded dash is free from the typical cracks. The front luggage compartment is also totally original, clean and, most important, removal of the front carpet (refer to photos) reveals a damage free front compartment. The engine compartment is also all original and has not been over detailed as is often the case. However, with the exception of the expected patina, the Porsche engine bay shows signs of excellent care and the engine is tight, and free from leaks. The underside of the car is not detailed but remains ‽California” clean and reflective of a low, low mileage car. The entire car is rust free and shows absolutely no signs of accident damage. Our inspection and that of an independent source indicates that the car is free from previous or current body, undercarriage or underside damage and retains its original body panels. With just over 51,000 well maintained miles, this is not a car that has ever been neglected and the low mileage and superb original condition makes it an investment quality example that is certain to continue to appreciate. However, the car is certainly a usable, drivable classic that would make a spectacular first time Porsche, or addition to a collection of Porsche cars. We can't think of a more appropriate adage than ‽A car can be restored over and over again but it is only original once.” Original, and in this case; simply stunning! Of course, the 911 has a clear, transferable California title. The cars history is supported by a totally clean CarFax report showing no accidents or other issues. Additionally, the CarFax report shows 14 detailed records including smog and service history. The current odometer reading is 51,641 and stated as correct by the cars previous owner. The service history and maintenance records support the chronological mileage and the condition of the car certainly suggests that it is accurate. However, considering the age of the Porsche we cannot guarantee the mileage and are classifying it as TMU (Total Miles Unknown) despite our sincere belief and all indications that the car has 51,641 original, one family owner miles. MAINTENANCE & SERVICE SUMMARY Since the 911 was delivered new, it has been under the care of a family who ensured that the Porsche received regular, professional service. As is often the case, the car was originally serviced by the dealer who, in the case of this Porsche, performed service in accordance with the recommended factory schedule until approximately 7,500 miles ago. Subsequently, the car was seen by professional Porsche specialists. The following summary represents the ongoing work that has been done to the 911 during the previous few thousand miles: At 51,471 Miles (170 miles ago) - Complete oil service - New oil line pump to thermostat - New hood shocks - R&R turn signal switch, - R&R left cam hose (re-set timing) - Adjust tire pressures and check all fluids At 51,435 miles (206 miles ago) Smog inspection (passed with excellent results) At 51,069 miles (572 miles ago) - 4 new Continental radial tires, mount & balance @ 51,069 miles ( Vehicle Details:
