This is a feeler post to gauge interest on my 79 turbo look targa. The flares are obviously aftermarket, but they’re steel and well done. The body is straight and has no structural rust that I’ve found. There is some damage to the Fiberglas front valence from a careless previous owner. Overall I would think a picky collector would consider this car a 6 to 6.5/10, and someone looking for a weekend driver would call it a 7/10. There are some paint defects and nicks, and typical interior wear to the door pockets and seat seams. I found the car locally after it sat for 10 years without being started. I’ve replaced the following items to get it back on the road:
Spark plugs with beru wires, cap, rotor, fuel accumulator, filter, fuel tank (complete from pelican), all fuel lines from the tank to the accumulator, brake hoses, brake master cylinder, bronze pedal bushings, rebuilt steering rack, and turbo tie rods. True mileage unknown, previous owner estimates a little over 100k total (for whatever that’s worth). The engine runs strong, and the trans seems pretty typical for a 915. I’m not in a hurry to sell, and am happy to continue tinkering over the winter. I’m swimming in street cars and am considering selling this to get back to a streetable track car; 997.1 gt3 or a ZL1 1LE camaro.
Priced at $25,000 for a fall sale.
