With those flush headlight squirters in the front bumper and the sugarscoop headlights it looks like a 1980-86 930 turbo.
The 1980's flag mirrors are origonally body paint color though, not black. Could be a complete short hood wide body conversion, or not the 1970 911T being sold. |

The front valence is used until the end of 1983. The antenna in the fender was used until around 1986.
If it is a 1970T with carbs. then it was updated at some point with 930 turbo body panels. I had a 1970 911T and it had Zenith carbs. Like Gumba said get the vin of the car and it is easy to tell you what year it is.

They look like Baby Tornados to me, rather than factory flags. Which were fitted to at least the later mid-year (74-77) cars BTW.

Yep, they don't look like the stock 930 mirrors and the aerial would come out of the top of the wing, that one appears to be slightly to the side.

Fender mounted antennas were used up to 1984. After that the antenna was embedded in the windshield. The driver's sideview mirror is mounted in the wrong position. It should be about 6 inches forward.

The center (forward and back) of my driver's flag mirror base is directly in line with the corner formed by the scuttle and the A-pillar - all the mirror glass is forward of the A pillar.

With enough money and time, you can make just about any year 911 look like any other year 911. A lot of body work can make the tub of a 1970 911T look like a late model 930. Like others have said, ask for the VIN.
