It has straight pipes with big torsion bars.
Yah - my first was an SC Targa. I LOVED the Targa 911 and SC's back then were the more affordables. Bought my '81 sight unseen from the Auto Trader - $10.5K. And it was White over Black. Later found out it came out of the factory in Black.

Even though I drove it back from Miami and drove it for a while it became apparent the CH studs were broken so did a rebuild.

Ended up selling her for real cheap about 20 years ago. But I also picked up an '83 SC Targa in Glacier Blue - being restored right now. Talk about a light car - it has so much missing sheet metal from corrosion it would beat anyone's car here...lol. I have some parts coming some to help with that.

Yours is an early car though right?
