Finished in Wine Red Metallic over a tan interior, this 1982 Porsche 911SC Coupe is powered by an air-cooled 3.0-liter flat-six engine paired with a 5-speed manual transaxle. It was purchased by the seller in 2004 and subsequently modified with oil-fed Carrera chain tensioners, SSI heat exchangers, a Bursch sport muffler, dual Weber carburetors, a custom aluminum front oil cooler, a custom brake booster vacuum tank, H4 headlights, pop-out quarter windows, Turbo tie rods, stainless-steel brake lines, Boge struts, and Bilstein shocks. The car was also refurbished with an engine-out service, a clutch replacement, a full glass-out repaint, a new windshield, dashboard upholstery, and more. Driven less than 3k miles during the seller’s 21 years of ownership, this 911SC is now being offered for auction out of Tennessee with approximately 87k miles showing on the odometer.
This 911SC Coupe is said to have been refinished in its original color of Wine Red Metallic in 2012 along with replacement of the windshield, installation of H4 headlamps, and a pop-out rear quarter window conversion. Equipment includes front fog lights, chrome headlamp rings, a fender-mounted antenna, dual body-colored mirrors, an electric sunroof, a custom front oil cooler air scoop, and 16” Fuchs alloy wheels dressed in Kumho Ecsta Supra tires. The seller adds that the sunroof seal has been replaced, and the headlamp washer system has been removed, although the nozzles are still installed on the front bumper. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a CARFAX showing an accident reported in 2001.
The cabin features beige seats, carpets, and door panels contrasted by a brown dashboard and rear shelf which were reupholstered under current ownership. Accessories include a black leather three-spoke steering wheel, power windows, air conditioning, and an aftermarket Kenwood stereo. The seller cannot confirm that the clock keeps time and indicates the radio is currently inoperable without its code. The A/C compressor has been removed, although the rest of the system is intact, and a spare compressor is included in the sale.
The air-cooled 3.0-liter flat-six engine was removed and serviced in 2008. Work included replacing the head studs and piston rings, regrinding the valves and seats, replacing the cold start valve and relays, and installing dual triple-throat Weber carburetors in place of the factory fuel injection system. The engine is also modified with oil-fed Carrera chain tensioners, a custom aluminum front oil cooler, a thermostat-controlled oil cooler fan, SSI heat exchangers, and a Bursch sport muffler. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 5-speed manual transaxle fitted with a new clutch in 2004. Other work performed under current ownership within the last 3k miles includes the installation of a custom brake booster vacuum tank, new Turbo tie rods, rebuilt brake calipers, new brake pads, stainless-steel brake lines, CV joints, Boge struts, Bilstein shocks, and greasing the front wheel bearings.
This sale will include the original rear quarter windows, rear seatbelts, painted headlight rings, an A/C compressor, stock tie rods, owner’s manuals, a toolkit, a spare tire, and a clean title.

Owned the car in Naples FL for 14 years, the roads are straight and flat and hot so I did not drive it. Lately in TN the roads are fun but I have been busy building my house so only short runs, no trips.

I have watched these cars on auction for 8 months, my reserve is lower than the average car sold and it's a lot better than many of the sold cars. If you want a daily driver Porsche this car would be fine BUT if you want one that has some spirit to it this is the car for you. Been driving Porsche's for 56 years, love the 356's, 912's, 911's all real thorough bred Porsche's. I have owned 15+ Porsches this car depending on your preferences is close to the top. I prefer the SWB cars.
why such sort milage covered in a long ownership?
Hey @tholcombe912w if it doesn’t hit the reserve please contact me please
50 minutes to go, any questions I'm happy to answer. Don't miss out on this very nice 911SC. Head studs all replaced with new non-breaking studs so no worries there. Smog/emissions all gone so the engine breaths and runs much better. It's a classic Porsche flat 6 3.0 liter with classic weber carbs and a free flow exhaust. Body never had any rust, interior is for the age in excellent condition. This car is pure Porsche not a car that can tell you what color socks you are wearing. They haven't made cars like this for 40 years, a real car for the spirited driver.

I have had a variety of questions so: To make horsepower you dump fuel and air into the intake side, make the exhaust as clean as possible with equal length pipes and minimum muffler and a camshaft design that allows as much of that to happen without back pressure. Camshaft design varies with where and when you want the HP and torque curves to be. The car has great breathing with the weber carbs and stainless no cat exchangers and Bursch sport muffler. The stock cams are timed to produce excellent low/midrange HP and torque. If you want high rpm performance you could change the cams but would loose slower speed drivability. I did that with my 912 and the engine comes alive at 3000 rpm but suffers below that. This car pulls extremely well up to 5000 rpm then the power curves start to fall from peak so it is a much more normal driving car. My 912 likes 2500 to 6500 rpm and wants to go higher, this car is happy at 1200 to 5000 rpm. It will happily go to red line but you get more acceleration by shifting up. I would not recommend changing the cams unless you want a "track car". My reserve is set very reasonable for the car with this low mileage and excellent performance.
Listened with ear buds, I believe what you hear is a combination of exhaust and road noise from chip sealed surface which has loose stone/dust. The Bursch sport muffler is louder than a stock system, even at a steady throttle. There is nothing loose on the car. Thanks for your interest.
There’s a rattling sound in the first video. It’s most audible at 45 and 60 seconds mark. What’s causing the noise?

Complete repaint was done by CPS Collision Center in Naples, FL in March 2012 which was were I was living at the time. The roads are all straight and flat and I mean all the roads and the weather is almost always hot, no A/C. I have only had the car here 4 years of which I spent a lot of time working on my 912 and a Karmann Ghia and the house/property. The mechanical work was done by myself. I was trained by 2 Porsche shops and a Mercedes/BMW dealer in CT starting in 1969. Rebuilt my first 911 engine in 1971 under supervision of the Porsche dealership. Had to replace a chain tensioner outside the Porsche dealership in Boston once, at one point there were 4 mechanics staring out the window watching me. Drove off 1 1/2 hours later to their surprise. Back then a new tensioner was $ 50 as I remember. Hope that answers your questions.
I’m curious about a couple things one being… who’s done the work on the car paint and mechanical. And why did you drive it so few miles like you said you live in a great area to drive? Auction ends today would just like to get some insight

No sticker on the jamb.
Bid in the amount of $26,666
@tholcombe912sw is that vin sticker on the driverside door jamb with the month/year it was built?
Bid in the amount of $25,911
No I sold it CIS stuff, sensors and electrical is still there but rest is gone as well as the sticker.
I bought this car with 84,360 miles so I have driven it 2,659 very enjoyable miles probably all but 2-300 miles with weber carbs. It runs very nice with plenty of power and is dangerously sticky on the curves of which there are a lot where I live. It is a rear engine Porsche so be prepared if you exceed the envelope you will be looking the opposite way in a corner. It can be very docile but, it wants to go faster, very tempting.
@tholcombe912sw Do you still have the CIS stuff? More importantly, do you know the build date of the car? Its on the driver door jamb sticker, but I fear this went away during the repaint.
Thanks

@wadds1971 It is not a PMO kit, the webers came from an earlier 911S, jets changed for the additional cc displacement. I tune my own carburetors using a unisync, idles smoothly at 800-900 with smooth acceleration. The injection was taken off because even with new parts and 2 different injection manuals I could not get it to run smoothly and accelerate properly. I'm old school and prefer carburetors. I did get the injection running properly for one day so I assume it may have been an electrical problem but all the test and readings were normal so I decided to change it over.
The accident appears to have been the left door which the door stop was broken and a small amount of filler near the center of the door. The door may have been replaced with a door of the same color since during repaint no other color paint was discovered. No other previous repair was found. Let me know if you have any other questions.

@tholcombe912sw, nice-looking color combo. It works well on your SC. Curious, though, why was the fuel-injection system removed in favor of the twin Webers? Is this a kit from PMO? Any particular problems getting them tuned and balanced to run the engine smoothly? I ask this because I experienced difficulty in fitting a pair of PMO carbs to my '76 911S many years ago, and felt I never quite "got them perfect". Prior to the repaint, was any rust remediation needed? Can you provide any details on the 2001 accident? Thanks!
