Show me your original Carrera 3.0!
I have a ´77 911 R.O.W. The previous owner has more or less converted it to Carrera 3.0 (3.0 engine, early carrera tail, flares etc.).
I would like to see what a real original Carrera 3.0 looks like. Does mine look all right? By the way, what are the main differences between the ´77 Carrera 3.0 and ´77 2.7? Flares, engine, what else?  Here with 15" BBS wheels. I have also 16" Fuchs wheels.  // sk |

How about your rear bumper pads? They look to be off of a 74.

'74s and Carrera 3.0s use the same pads, I think.

Noah,
I had an offer a few years back from one of our UK friends on the board to get some from a wrecking yard over there. You might put out the word. I will try to find his name and e-mail address. Alan Poh '77 Carrera 3.0 #499 |

My company recently developed a website for a local used Porsche dealer.
Here's a picture of a '76 Carrera 3.0 that he has for sale. It's in museum condition -- 116,000 original kilometers! I must admit, I've experienced some sordid little daydreams about this car ever since I laid eyes on it ....

"The Carrera had the new 'black-look' as standard: window frames, wipers, doorhandles and on the Targa the rollbar, were black and the rings around the headlights were painted in the color of the body. The 'chrome-look' was however still available as an option." // sk |

Just to stir things up
... Here is my baby. Vin says Carrera 3.0 1977. I think it is an M491 option. The flares were leaded in, and I'm told that is unlikely to have been done in the states. I will know after I get the COA. I replaced the periscope style headlight washers after the strip and repaint.

My '76 Carrera 3, absolute standard Touring spec externally but Sport spec where it counts! Oh, and running low on 7 & 9 Turbo Fuchs.
