CAn someone identify this 911?

A friend forwarded this to me asking what it was. Not sure about those Ferrari - esque side inlets...

Looks like an SC that someone converted to a cab and added turbo flares and brake inlets.

The inlet on some of those are factory. I can't tell if it has turbo flares or not from the photo. What do you want to know?

Nice flat on the Merc. Must be a used exotic lot.

'74 to '83...

not factory brake vents on a car that old.

Looks like 930 turbo flares... at least on the rear... not original and could be plastic.

If it's 82 or older the cabrio top isn't original either.

Out of curiosity, how can you tell if that's 74-83 car? Plastic flares, really???

Fog lights were integrated into the front valance starting on the '84 model year.

EDIT: Not exactly integrated, but inset.

Haha, thanks. That's the quick way to narrow down the SC/Carrera years.

If the Cab is factory, then it can only be an '83.

Correct but have seen some of the earliest production 84 having the SC valence and external fogs.
