1979 Porsche 911SC Cabriolet Conversion

This 1979 Porsche 911SC was initially a targa model, converted into a cabriolet with Strosek-style bodywork. It features a 3.0L flat-six engine paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. The car is finished in metallic purple with linen upholstery and includes a blue convertible top, projector headlights, 964-based taillights, and power-adjustable front seats. It rides on 17" Borbet wheels and incorporates various aftermarket modifications, such as later-model aero mirrors and an aftermarket shift knob. Despite some exterior blemishes, this distinctive build offers a unique visual appeal.
