I'm selling this beautiful 1980 911SC which I have owned for the last 14 years. It originally had 112,000 miles on it and I've added 14,889 more.
Because the body is rust-free and has no signs of damage, I have concentrated on restoring it to the full power it had when new. For the first 6 years it was cared for by Chris Musante, of Musante Motor Sports in South Windsor, CT. Chris and his team rebuilt the drive train - engine, clutch, transmission and dyno tested it. During that period, all known updates on the engine were done, and the suspension was upgraded to racing suspension. I wanted to learn skill driving and this car is perfect because it can corner like a cheetah and pull at least as strong as a lion. Improvements made by or through Chris and team:
• Engine rebuild
• Clutch replace
• Transmission lower gears replaced
• Odometer rebuilt
• Targa top rebullt and reconditioned
• Fuel distributor rebuilt and replaced.
• Fuel sender replaced
• Dual Stainless Steel Exhaust headers
• Custom dual muffler (sweet, street legal sound)
• Full Custom Roll Cage with High Density padding
• Recaro Seats with 5 point harnesses
• Mocal 50 row Oil Cooler
• Replaced temp gauge with calibrated sender & gauge
• Racing Suspension
• Strut tower brace added
• Air scoops on brakes
I enjoyed getting the car up to full power and drove it on the road and for about a total of 7 Driver's Ed 2 day events. Family and business kept me from going full into DE, but the car is a thrill beyond description. It can out-drive much newer and more powerful 911's on a small track like Lime Rock or even on Watkins Glen if the driver learns to use the corners.
The next 8 years the car was cared for Skipper Hull of Little Foreign Car Garage in Waltham, MA. Skipper and his team:
• Replaced brake calipers, rotors, pads and many brake lines.
• Replaced full Engine Wire harness
• Pulled engine and resealed, replaced clutch
• Replaced air box, popoff valve, and most rubber hoses
• Replaced rocker shafts
• Rebuilt heater boxes
• Replaced oil sender
• R&R original seat belts for road driving
The paint is not original but it looks sharp except for a spot on front bumper. The car was originally an unusual brownish-auburn color which the previous owner repainted white. It came to me with a fiberglass cover on the dash. I never used the A/C but its components are all original.
I wanted a car I could enjoy on the street so it has a sound system with dual speakers on the rear deck with a CD radio/amplifier. On the street I use the original seat belts.
It starts on the first crank and is a smooth-running machine. The engine is dry, no leaks.
Front wheels are 7" Fuchs with Potenza RE-11, 205/55 R16 and rear wheels are 8" Fuchs with Potenza RE-11, 245/45 R16. Tires have less than 800 miles on them.
It has been garaged the entire time I've had it. This car has a professionally restored set of mechanicals that will make your day if driving is in your blood. It will also turn heads.
I will cooperate for shipment as along as buyer takes care of all arrangements. If an overseas buyer makes all the export arrangements, I'll consider selling outside the US.
