GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this 1979 Porsche 911SC Targa, finished in striking Petrol Blue Metallic over black leather interior. With its signature removable roof panel and stainless steel roll bar, the Targa body style delivers that open-air driving thrill while maintaining the unmistakable silhouette of a classic 911. The exterior is further enhanced by white rectangular fog lights, body-colored headlight trim, and a beautiful set of black and silver 16-inch alloy wheels that give it an aggressive but tasteful stance.

Power comes from Porsche's rock-solid 3.0-liter flat-six engine, factory-rated at 180 horsepower, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. This air-cooled powertrain is known for its smooth delivery, mechanical feel, and excellent reliability compared to earlier 2.7-liter variants. The 911SC used Bosch CIS fuel injection, making it one of the most drivable and user-friendly classics of the era. With its rear-engine layout and balanced handling, this car offers a rewarding experience on backroads or highways alike.

Inside, the cabin features black leather seats, a leather-wrapped safety steering wheel, analog gauges including fuel, oil, temperature, and Druck pressure, plus an original analog clock in the center stack. The interior remains refreshingly analog, with crank windows and manual locks, yet includes comfort touches like power seat adjustments and an upgraded Alpine stereo system with Alpine speakers. A center console and tinted glass round out a refined yet focused cockpit.

This example comes with Porsche's Certificate of Authenticity and a binder of service records to support its well-kept history. It's a great opportunity to get behind the wheel of a true driver's car from the golden age of air-cooled performance, one that blends timeless design, collectible value, and thrilling road manners.
