This Porsche's classic factory Guards Red paint is gorgeous and was just fully buffed and hand waxed. The body on the car has only very minimal signs of wear and a few chips here and there that have been touched up. The paint has been nicely preserved and remains all original with exception of hood being repainted complete (rock chips) and a blend on top edge of driver door at some point and would consider it above driver quality 8.5 out of 10. The car is arrow straight and is Carfax and Autocheck certified to have never been in an accident. This 911 has always been garage kept and pampered its entire life and really shows. I have had the car up in the air and have fully inspected for rust of any kind, and it was clear that this car was only driven in the fair weather. No rust issues are evident anywhere on the car. Lower fenders, rockers, belly pan, and spare tire area are perfect with zero rust of any kind. I put my 15+ years in the classic car business behind my inspection.

The car is riding on the original 16" 6's & 7's Staggered Fuchs light alloy wheels with black centers. They are all in like new condition and wrapped in OEM spec performance radials.

The beautiful Gray-Beige partial leather interior is all fresh and looks great thanks to years of care and a recent replacement of the front seat covers. The dash is in excellent shape with no cracks or missing vents and the door panels are very clean. The Targa top is in excellent shape and was recently completely restored and seals up great! Everything works in the car.. lights, gauges, radio, seats, windows, locks, etc.

Mechanically, this Porsche is in great condition and runs and drives great. It has very healthy and very quick 3.0L. This car boasts 202bhp and flys 0-60 in 6.6 sec with a top speed of 150mph! The car has a very strong 915 5-Speed transmission that shifts perfect since it was completely freshened with new shifter bushings and new clutch in last 30k miles. We have records going back to 1989 and the car has always been serviced at a Porsche or European specialty shops. This car is very clean under the hood and really shows how its previous owner took excellent care of it. Below is a summary of the documented maintenance history:
