This 1974 Porsche 911 Targa is the subject of a custom Turbo-style build, including wide steel fenders and a Euro-spec turbocharged 3.0-liter 930 flat-six engine by Reno Rennsport. Finished in Arena Red Metallic over a black interior, it features a 930S-style front fascia, straked side air intakes, aero mirrors, a painted fiberglass Targa top, a tea tray rear spoiler, 16” Maxilite Fuchs wheels, updated 993 power seats, RS-style door panels, a three-spoke Sparco steering wheel, cockpit-adjustable turbo boost, and upgraded 930 brakes and suspension. Driven approximately 3,500 miles since the rebuilt engine and 5-speed manual transmission were installed, this custom 911 Targa is now being offered for auction out of Alabama.
This 911 has been fitted with 930 Turbo bodywork, including wide steel fenders, a 930S-style front fascia with integrated fog lights, a wider rear bumper, and a tea tray rear spoiler. The exterior is finished in Arena Red Metallic and features updated aero mirrors, a painted fiberglass targa top, a painted roll hoop, Slant Nose-style side air intakes, dual chrome exhaust tips, and 16” Maxilite Fuchs wheels with new Yokohama tires. An additional set of 19” wheels is included in the sale. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The interior has been redone with grey carpeting, power-adjustable Porsche 993 seats in black leather, and black RS-style door panels. Accessories include Porsche-crested headrests, red door pull straps, Sparco pedal covers, a Sparco shift knob, a leather-wrapped three-spoke Sparco steering wheel, a turbo boost adjuster, and an aftermarket stereo and speakers.
Power comes from a turbocharged Euro-spec 3.0-liter 930 flat-six engine built by Reno Rennsport. The rear wheels are driven through a 5-speed Type 915 manual transaxle, which was also rebuilt and upgraded to accommodate the turbocharged engine's power. The car features an aftermarket exhaust system and upgraded 930 Turbo brakes and suspension. The seller indicates that both the engine and transmission were rebuilt and installed within the last 3,500 miles.
This sale will include a clean title and an additional 19” wheel and tire set.

@Mongoose Received your email; will contact you to schedule the visit.
If I want to see in person how can I.
@allmack No; as outlined in the PCM write-up and our listing, yet the car speaks for itself (with factory 3.0L 930 engine, 930 widebody, brakes & suspension, etc.) and is offered/priced to account for such.
No receipts for the work? When was it?
Offer in the amount of $60,000
Thanks for the a/c info
@SantaFe23 No; our outsourced Porsche specialty shop estimated the A/C installation at $3K for the high efficiency kit, plus $2.5 K labor to install.
Does it have a/c?
@Galevin please place an offer in DealTank

@Grabau19 There is nothing wrong with the gauges; "that's my driving" and shifting with the same hand while videoing with my other hand, as pointed out in my comment on posting -- my shifts are very deliberate (causing the cited bounce on the tachometer at times) and and my eyes are on the road, traffic pulling out in front & the video screen focus, thus don't judge it harshly ;). As outlined, overall the Turbo Targa's paint looks extremely nice for this class Restomod build, but does have a few paint chips and the cited "brake vent area" paint cracks on the left side that I did my best to show in the media set -- our aircooled specialist & restoration shop did not cite a specific cause.

Also, just checking but only 45 miles have been put on it since it was sold by Dodi Auto Sales 6 or so months ago? TY
How does the motor typically run? In the video, it seems to be idling up and down a bit.
Have you had the gauges looked at? They are all over the place when you drive. Just trying to determine if anything is wrong.
On the driver side lever (flare) is it just around an 8-inch surface crack, or is the paint flaking? Not sure why paint would do this with newer paint.
Hello!
I’ve had some poeple contact me in regards to the car, I know it pretty well.
my opinion of the car is it is it’s going to be the most fun Turbo “930” you can buy!
I knew the previous owners well who built it, and happy to chat to anyone about it.
The motor is solid! True 930 engine out of a 76 “I believe” Much less turbo lag. The 915 transmission mates with it in my opinion better than a true 930. You also will have a 5-speed which means you can drive it comfortably on the highway. In regards to the paint, there are a few minor cracking, but I don’t recommend anyone do anything about it. Overall it looks great, runs great. And I know the new owner will have a blast with it.

Ex Dodi Auto sale?
@CrowFl Thank you. Yes; I was responding to your reference to photos #60 & #61.
I appreciate the transparency with your pictures and descriptions. I was referring to pictures 60 & 61.
Looking forward to the driving video weather permitting. Thanks
@luis.seneriz No A/C; but you have the Targa top ;) A 3.0L 930 Coupe weighs 2,641 lbs, it's likely close; it feels light/nimble, the engine is strong, sounds great, nice power delivery, handles excellently, the transmission shifts smoothly through all gears, etc. -- I'll get a driving video done tomorrow, weather permitting.
Cool build. Does car has AC? Would be great to see a driving video. How much boost can it handle? Any idea how heavy this car is?
Bid in the amount of $12,930

@kd123192 OEM class bulbs are currently installed.
@CrowFl Thank you. Yes; the paint has an excellent deep luster, making the Turbo Targa "pop". Our aircooled specialist & restoration shop did not cite a specific cause for what you cite -- overall the car looks extremely nice for this class Restomod build, but does have a few paint chips and defects that I did my best to show in the media set.

Our aircooled specialist & restoration shop did not cite a specific cause for what you cite -- over all the car looks extremely nice for his class Restomod build, but does have a few paint chips & defects , that I did my best to show with close-ups in the media set.
Gorgeous…type if headlight bulbs please?
Car looks great for its age. What do you think is causing the paint to fail on the drivers side brake vents?
RARE TO SEE A TARGA TURBO Good luck all!!!
