1979 Porsche 911 Wide-Body Cabriolet Convertible Description

All-Steel 911 Cabriolet with Turbo-Look, Slant Nose Wide Body and 3.2-Liter Motor

Recently tuned 3.2-liter Carrera motor runs and sounds great. Model 915/63 5-speed manual transmission shifts well. Rust-free body. No oil leaks. Matching chassis numbers. The car was restored in 2011, when it earned a salvage title, which was due to interior and exterior vandalism. See a video of the damage here:

Pre-purchase inspections are welcome. The car is being sold as-is, where-is. Also listed locally. Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping, but I’m glad to help in any way possible.
