I had a 1979SC I adored and feel that the SC series was the greatest 911 built by Porsche. Today however, you have to search well for a great example. Retro-fitting a G50 from a 915 might be a pricey option, but if you already have the G50 and want an SC or early Carrera, why not have the 915. Swepco makes a big difference in the shifting.
The 930s are around and in fact I thought I saw one for sale on Pelican from a local owner recently. If you got the word out to a few shops (Ryland, Jack Lewis, Reggie, Franz Blam, etc), I bet they can find you a nice one at a fair price. If I was loking for a second Porsche the 930 would be kick to own and drive.
As for my 73.5T, I love the heck out of it because its torquey, nosey, classicly 70's and embodies the best days of early Porsche. If I parted with it, I know I would miss it very much.
Anyways, if you ever get a chance come over to the Avenue in East Cobb (just east of Johnson Ferry on Roswell) the first sunday of each month if you want to mingle with fellow Porsche owners and hundreds of sports car enthusiasts.
Good Luck in your searches
