Hmm- is yours the white one with engine out? I've passed by that house many times and wanted to stop and say hi (way before I got my 911).

Yep, that's the one! Feel free to stop in next time you pass by unless it it mid-afternoon and our 2 year old is napping (usually around 2 - 3:30 pm) -- anyone knocking on the door at that time suffers the wrath of my wife

Long time since I've posted here. Update on this targa (now has 169,142 miles)

Here's what I've done during the last (3) years:
1) Installed new SSI heat exchangers and Dansk aluminized sport muffler. Sounds amazing!

2) Installed new oil hard/flexible lines from the oil thermostat back to the engine and oil tank.

3) Installed a new seal for the oil tank level switch.

4) Complete oil change with filter and sump plate gaskets (Castrol 20W-50).

5) Purchased new visor pivots and installed the visors.

6) Replaced broken right side heater box control wire.

7) Installed new S/S braided brake hoses and flushed the brake system (ATE 200 fluid).

8) Installed new sway bar bushings and end links.

9) Installed new Bosch remanufactured starter in 2017 and Interstate battery in 2018.

10) Just replaced the wiper blades and front targa bar weatherstrip seal.

With (3) fun cars, I don't really have time to drive it, so it will be for sale very soon.

The GT4 on the other hand has a bout 250 miles and it's just fun 😀

That's a good looking 911S, enjoy!

Ken,

Yes I have issues, wait until you see what’s next

PS: That was the 1980 911SC above, with the hot rod engine, still have the Euro 79SC.

Jim, PM sent.
