Hey guys, I drove the SC this morning and the car is in very good shape. The worst that I could find was some minor rust around the left rear window sill and a few spots on the edge of the passenger door. Other needs are the seats need re-leather (hence the seat covers) and there are a few oil drips underneath (but then what old 911 doesn't leak a little?).

Otherwise, very good. Paint is very good, tires new, brakes/rotors new, engine all original. Except for the seats, the interior is in very good shape. Targa doesn't leak. Everything is stock except the aftermarket steering wheel which the original owner had installed around 1979.

It rode and drove perfectly. Engine pulled strongly and the trans shifted smoothly. Clutch felt fine. No rattles. I had a blast on just the test drive.

Current owner bought it in 1980 and has owned it ever since. Seller said three times that the price was negotiable. PPI scheduled for Monday morning. If everything checks out ok, it will probably be in my driveway on Monday evening.

Here are a pair of pic's from this morning;
