SC book?

do any of you guys have, or have had an oppertunity to read/look at the 911sc turbo 78-83 handbook by rm clark? does it cover much about the normal SC or is it more turbo oriented? was the 78-83 turbo still refered to as the 930? just wnat to know if its worth ponying up for the read

If it is the book I'm thinking of and actually have in my library, it consists of reprints of various magazine articles about the SC and 930. It is about 200 pages and it an interesting read. About 60% is SC and 40% is 930. There are alos a lot of European magazine articles.

I also have that book. It is not written but compiled by R.M. Clarke and as Noel said consists on about 40 reprints of articles from US, English and even one South African magazines.

Most articles are from the time the SC was launched or when it underwent some modifications (1980 for the new engine en Europe and 1983 for the Cabrio) and say more or less the same, so after reading two or three you get the general idea. There is just one article from 1992 that covers the SC from a Classic Car point of view, which is one of the most interesting.

I found it interesting to know what people thought of the SC when it was launched.
