911 Carrera Targa 3.2 Survivor

I absolutely love this car but must sell it to keep the kids in private school. Being an avid 'Car Guy' and a PCA member for years. I have driven Porsches since I was 16 thanks in part to my father having the same affliction. Having been around 911's for 30 years. be assured that this is a great survivor example with which I am truly sad to see go.  

First off here are the items that may need attention depending on how important they are to you. I have fixed or serviced the things that were important for me. The AC doesn't blow cold. Normally these cars had an AC unit that felt like a small dog panting or your leg so unless you live in the far south or want a mechanically perfect car then this may not be an issue for you. I do not know if it just needs a charge or if the system needs to be replaced. If it were me and I wanted AC in this car then I would pull this OEM unit out and instal one of the new upgraded models such as the Rennaire unit [as with any 911 of this generation]. The is a spot under the license tag area where at some point a previous owner has run over something that has curled the rear valance back just a bit [maybe a half inch]. It doesn't bother me so I haven't ever addressed it but I'd think it would be fairly easy to curl back with a bit of effort. It wouldn't be perfect without taking it to a shop but you could get it pretty close. You would want to be careful not to bend in such a way that the paint would peel/chip/flake at the edge. There is a picture that shows what I am describing. FYI you won't see it unless you look right at it. it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.  There are a few small leaks around the front and rear corners of both the driver and passenger window. I have installed a new Targa Top and because of that. I am getting these few small leaks. The top itself needs to be adjusted [the side seals]. which should fix the leak. The front windshield seal has been replaced. The rear still seams to be in good shape. I rarely drive it in the rain so this has never been a priority for me. Actually the top usually stays off of it.

Would have no qualms driving it across country. I am the 3rd owner. The second being the dealer that we bought from. It is obvious that the original owner took great care of this stellar driver. It has been garage kept since I've owned it and may have been in the rain only once or twice. I'm estimating the value between a Haggerty #2 & #3 . upper end #3. lower end #2. This is a perfect Porsche for someone that wants to start with an all original. correctly patina'ed. classic '80's driver car.
