Finally got this back to my house, it's been out at my Dad's old place since he passed away and my sister and I are selling the house out there...It's a '78 911SC which is the first year with the 3 liter motor. My dad had a guy in Washington state build the motor (Paul Weir) about a year or so before he passed away and dropped about 7K on the motor, unfortunately it's always had a nagging electrical problem with the battery and recently developed a hot start issue.....the paint is shot (clear is peeling badly) and interior needs ALOT of attention, but the PRO'S are the newish motor, new shocks/struts all around, new clutch/PP etc., oh, and no car payment :metal:

Nice. I love the 911's. I had actually thought about selling my cobra and getting an early to mid 90's 911 awhile back.


Until I priced them :(

Actually, I tried to get Lee to get rid of that truck and buy a newer 911. He's got more money than two show dogs can jump over just will not turn it loose. lol

Nice project, there were some sweet ones on Ebay, wish i could afford one of those also.

Man i need to win the lottery.

I love a 911 and that will be a sweet ride and love those wheels Thejeanyus has posted also.

It would be hard to tow the Cobra behind the 911. :D

Yea, I guess if you like to play around at the track the truck and trailer deal becomes an asset.
