The 1974 model year saw the most significant evolution of the Porsche 911 yet with the introduction of new G-Series bodywork along with fuel-injected 2.7-liter flat-six engines across the model range. Delivered new in Los Angeles, California, this example was specified in Grand Prix White over black upholstery. Acquired by the owner out of England, this 1974 Porsche 911 Targa was imported to the United States. Now a part of a collection of cars damaged by a fire in the owner’s barn, this 911 is now being offered at no reserve as a project car out of Connecticut.

Introduced in 1974, the G-Body 911 is distinguished from its long-hood predecessor by its integrated bumpers with black bellows and a full-width taillight reflector panel. Originally specified in Grand Prix White, the exterior now exhibits fire damage, scorched panels, missing glass, and corrosion. It sits on warped Fuchs wheels without tires. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.

Previously outfitted with black upholstery, the cabin exhibits extensive fire damage. Equipment includes a three-spoke steering wheel, a dashboard panel, and seat frames.

A fuel-injected 2.7-liter flat-six occupies the engine bay, connected to a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine is said to have been previously rebuilt by Automotive Restorations, Inc., along with the fitment of a new clutch, suspension, and updated transmission gears. The seller adds that the engine and transmission are original to the car, previously confirmed by matching numbers. Following the fire, the extent of the mechanical damage or which parts are salvageable cannot be confirmed.

This sale will include a clean title.

The seller would like you to know: "Brief Back Story: A client's barn caught fire, and the fire spread so fast that it was unable to be extinguished. Thus, his entire Porsche collection was burned. I acquired this early G-body at a Bonhams auction in England and brought it back to the U.S. It’s been the most exceptional example I’ve owned and driven. I invested extensively in its restoration across multiple shops, with receipts for all work completed. The engine was professionally rebuilt by Automotive Restorations, Inc., along with a new clutch, suspension, and updated transmission gears. The rusted battery area was replaced, and the car originally had matching numbers upon my acquisition, which has deteriorated now obstructing the current view."
