Equipped with a 3.0-liter flat-six engine paired with a 5-speed manual transaxle, this 1981 Porsche 911SC Targa is presented in Chiffon White over Chocolate Brown upholstery. The car is under the care of its second owner and benefits from a restored CIS fuel injection system, a new Targa top, an overhauled suspension with upgraded Turbo tie rods, a Dansk sport muffler, and a recent oil change. This classic air-cooled Targa is now being offered for auction out of Colorado.
The exterior is finished in Chiffon White (182) with a black Targa bar, a wraparound heated glass rear window, and a removable vinyl-covered roof panel. Other equipment includes body-colored headlamp rings, front fog lights, dual mirrors, a fender-mounted antenna, and 15” Fuchs wheels. The seller notes a new Targa top has been installed, and the tires were replaced in 2024. Imperfections include some rock chips and minor scratches on the exterior, as well as a heat blemish on the rear decklid. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The cabin features Chocolate Brown partial leather upholstery and matching carpets. Accessories include a three-spoke MOMO Prototipo steering wheel, power windows, cruise control, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM/cassette radio. The seller notes the air conditioning system components have been removed and are included in the sale, along with the original steering wheel, which requires leather restoration. The odometer gears failed several years ago, and the car’s true mileage is unknown.
The fuel-injected 3.0-liter flat-six engine produces 180 HP and 175 lb-ft of torque stock, which is transmitted to the rear wheels through a 5-speed Type 915 manual transaxle. The seller states the output was increased to 201 HP in 1981. A Dansk muffler has been installed and the Bosch CIS fuel injection system is said to have been restored. Additionally, the suspension was reportedly overhauled and professionally set up with a hybrid Euro ride height and upgraded Turbo tie rods.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a spare tire, a Lego model, some spare parts, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “A great runabout, and a reliable classic. Lego model included.”

I love chiffon white and this is one of the nicest color combinations with chiffon white. GLWA.
@Medaltech Hi I added some under the car pics.
Additional content has been added to the gallery for this listing.
@Siberian24 Hi all stock and No tool kit.
@Bruce914 Hi Cat delete.
FWIW-
Although a little worse for wear, without even looking at detail tire photos, those are 16" wheels, standard on SCs.
Looks like pressure oil fed chain tensioners?
No tool kit?
Is the CAT still on the car?
any underneath photos
@Vdm9 Original paint yes. No readings. I have some service receipts and from the major jobs done, Suspension, Targa Top and CSI. As mentioned I took pride in doing my own oil and service. I do have the 101 Projects by Dempsey and the manual has some records of service from 20 years ago.
Hello and thank you for joining in on this auction. This car has been a joy and reluctantly yet enthusiastic for the next caretaker to have this special Targa SC. California car yet moved to the garage in Colorado in 2020. It is ready for daily driver or next level restoration and is off to a great start for either. Suspension dialed in, Targa Top full restoration to original spec straight and tight, CSI refurb. Maintenance done professionally until I learned to take on all oil changes, transmission (magic blue 201) and tune plug, wire, coil. I appreciate all interests and will respond to your questions a much as possible.
