Russ Posted 2December, 2014 Report Share Posted 2December, 2014 So Russ, That puts your car into 1 of 3 categories ..... 1. A super dooper rare "pre side repeater, side repeater" 911. 2. A 911 with an identity crisis 3. A frankenporsche ...... No matter what it turns out to be, I for one am really happy that it has you to love it unconditionally ..... (and being a Sporto, it really needs that) ...... You might want to be careful with implying things within this thread when they might affect the value of someones car.... (I think this has been a long time coming as a comment) I'm up for a bit of a laugh as much as the next guy, but there are some things that I wouldn't make jokes (or otherwise) about. I've got no reason to believe the front guards have been replaced, I had it thoroughly inspected before it was sent for roadworthy and verified that it hasn't been in an accident (and even if they had been would you bother wiring up side repeaters? or fill the holes in the guards - I'd know i'd choose the latter) and if it had been in an accident I'm wondering how you replace both guards but nothing else? I'd also assume it would mention in the service history I have if it'd been done (it mentions all sorts of small touch ups that have been done, the paint code used, and where it was touched up etc) I've got a CoA from Porsche Australia confirming it's Australian Delivered, and an early photograph of it with side repeaters. So it's a bit of a quandary, I think they're original but who knows. But at the end of the day I'm happy with it and not planning on selling it any time soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamr Posted 2December, 2014 Report Share Posted 2December, 2014 Russ,I apologise if the last post even remotely implied that there was an issue with your ride .....It was purely in jest within the confines of the preceding discussions.Feel free to disconnect the hose to my smog pump next time you see me if it will make you feel better .....

Shady Speedway Posted 3December, 2014 Report Share Posted 3December, 2014 My 76 930 AU delivered built 10/75 has side indicators. I thought it could have been an ADR at first? Though I seem to think there where Australian delivered jap cars that didn't have them in that era? The yanks opted for an extended indicator in the bumper rather than the side repeater. The plot thickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben C3.o Posted 3December, 2014 Report Share Posted 3December, 2014 My 76 3.o AU delivered, built 09/75 doesn't have them. The air vents in the dash didn't appear until September 76 from my research. Black door surrounds were an option from my understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one forward date I just don't get (unfortunately its all too common), taking a long-hood car and conveying it to an IB car... maybe it made sense in 1987, but I know what I'd rather, the long hood looks 100x better!

tazzieman Posted 3December, 2014 Report Share Posted 3December, 2014 I feel like that car has been listed since Carsales started! If as he states it is too low to get into ( in his 78th year), he should raise it to factory height and keep driving it ; either that or I can show him some strength & mobility programs to shave 20 years off his life... edgy and SteveT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted 3December, 2014 Report Share Posted 3December, 2014 Has anyone mentioned the brake booster yet? 76 models didn't have them @JV911 (and perhaps Ben C3.0), did the 76 MY Carrera 3.0 have a brake booster option, or was this only introduced for the MY 77 model year?

tazzieman Posted 3December, 2014 Report Share Posted 3December, 2014 It was MY77 on from memory.

I don't know whether it was an option but I distinctly remember test driving a yellow one a few years ago that did't have a brake booster. Still kicking myself for not buying it! That is one forward date I just don't get (unfortunately its all too common), taking a long-hood car and conveying it to an IB car... maybe it made sense in 1987, but I know what I'd rather, the long hood looks 100x better!

Could be the first backdated forward date? $75k yeah right.....been that price for years and not sold, time to rethink the strategy perhaps? edgy and TE911 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally a Silver 930 with black interior delivered new to Ireland where it was converted, painted white and a red interior fitted. Imported into Australia by two brothers, when ? not sure.
