1980 Porsche 911SC Targa 3.0L | Texas Delivered | Matching Numbers | Fully Rebuilt Mechanicals | Period Perfect Overall I Nordic Gold
We are proud to present this exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautifully preserved and mechanically sorted 1980 Porsche 911SC Targa 3.0L — a true icon of the air-cooled era and one of the most rewarding classic Porsche ownership experiences available today. Delivered new in Texas in November 1980 through Town North Porsche Audi, this matching numbers example is finished in the timeless and highly period-correct combination of Nordic Gold Metallic over Choc leather — a classic specification that perfectly captures the style and character of the late 1970s and early 1980s Porsche design era. All original and no upgrades done, sitting on her perfect 15" FUCH alloys and was a spoiler rear delete which keeps the lines clean and classic.
Having resided in Australia for more than 35 years, the vehicle being imported back to Australia by her last owner from the US. Carefully owned and enthusiast maintained throughout its life, this 911SC presents as an honest, highly original, and exceptionally usable classic Porsche. Most notably, this example has benefitted from rebuilt/refurbished/renewed mechanical, exterior, interior carried out and has been little used since this was done many years ago but with a fresh service and rwc safety/certificate she is good to go and ensuring the car performs exactly as a well-sorted air-cooled 911 should.
The legendary 3.0L flat-six engine starts effortlessly, pulls strongly through the rev range, and delivers the unmistakable mechanical soundtrack that defines the classic 911 driving experience. Combined with the refreshed 915 gearbox and recent clutch work, the vehicle shifts smoothly and confidently, offering a raw, analogue, and deeply engaging drive. The cabin remains beautifully preserved and highly original, complemented by new carpets and floor mats while retaining its authentic period-correct appearance. It stands as a testament to careful custodianship and thoughtful preservation over the decades. The original factory Blaupunkt cassette player is still in tact and all dials, gauges and switch gear in fantastic order showing clear signs of long careful ownership.
One of the defining features of the 911 Targa is, of course, the removable roof panel — neatly stowed within the front luggage compartment — allowing for a unique open-air driving experience while maintaining the unmistakable silhouette of the classic G-Series 911. So enduring is the Targa’s appeal that Porsche later revived the concept in modern generations, inspired directly by the timeless design language established during this era.
This example further benefits from a clean rear profile free of spoilers, preserving the elegant and uninterrupted body lines that make early G-Series cars so visually desirable. Sitting perfectly on brand-new period-correct 15x7 Fuchs wheels wrapped in Pirelli tyres, the car has both the stance and driving balance enthusiasts seek.
The 911SC has long been regarded as one of the smartest entry points into classic air-cooled Porsche ownership — combining reliability, purity, and timeless design in one complete package. Examples that are mechanically sorted, matching numbers, and presented this honestly are becoming increasingly difficult to secure.
Whether you are entering the classic Porsche world for the first time or adding another significant air-cooled example to your collection, this 911SC Targa represents exceptional value, authenticity, and enjoyment.
