@30westrob This is what I figured as well. Just glad I didn't have a rodent nest in there too. I'll be building a 5 gallon bucket mouse trap this week to take care of any critters that may still be...

@TibetanT and TRE Cup, Thank you for the replies. I tore apart most of the hoses on the ventilation system up front and everything that I could see was really clean. Although I'm not sure how the...

Also, I should note that the post the search turned up did not have a resolution, thus my question to the Pelican community. Thanks in advance for any guidance.

I searched and found one thread regarding a nasty burnt popcorn smell and smoke coming from the defrost vent of a stock 83 911SC Targa. I spent all day tearing apart the HVAC system up front to see...

This appears to be a Euro car. Would a Euro car have an MPH speedo? Not a KPH?

Well, I guess the questions you have to ask yourself are these: Do you think the stock market will continue to climb? Do you think inflation will continue to be that thing that happened in the 80's...

@Sunroof

I think what we're seeing is the "wealth effect" from a stock market that has gone to the moon these last few years. That and the fact that the Euro exchange rate can make anything we're...

Weren't these on earlier cars inside the driver's door hinge? The color code on my '83 Targa is on a silver sticker in the trunk on the left side wall.

Yeah, I noticed the same plate and thought the same thing! I have an '83 Targa (48K on the clock) so I always check out similar cars to compare condition. I'm thinking: where the hell is that plate...

Wow, I just scanned some of the Bonhams auction results - some crazy numbers. $33K for a '70 Karmann Ghia Cab anybody? I've been to a fair number of auctions and contend that you can find your dream...

@GothingNC

Can you tell me the mileage of the red Targa as well as whether or not the paint and interior was original? Looks like the seats had been redone at some point. Also, looks to be a nice...

You may be right, time will tell. Obviously there was no shortage of either model so it won't be rarity that pushes values. I just think that the SC is special because it represents a leap forward in...

$80-100K for an '87 Targa?!? Seriously? In Guards Red no less. What, did Steve McQueen lean on it once? I have a hard time believing that car will break $50K, but I don't know the car or the story so...

I think you you will see SC's exceed the values of 3.2's as time goes on. The nostalgia factor is in play here and guys who graduated high school in '81-82 lusting after an SC are now in their early...

similar, but a LOT less $$:
Porsche : 930 Turbo in Porsche | eBay Motors

Who lists a car on line for sale and doesn't show the engine? Maybe I didn't look close enough.

Ain't no way that's a 25 or 28,000 mile engine! Maybe the original motor blew and this was a replacement from a wrecked car? The scratches indicate, at least to me, that some serious wrenching took...

Sox - don't worry about the mileage and devaluing the car. As previously mentioned, you ARE paying a premium for the low miles, no question about that. But with only 39K on the clock you can go a...
