Backdated 1978 Porsche 911SC Targa 3.2L

Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1978 Porsche 911SC Targa has been extensively backdated and modified with a rebuilt 3.2L flat-six by Ed Pink Racing Engines, featuring individual throttle bodies and a MaxxECU. It presents in a striking Viper Green with a "longhood" conversion and a ducktail decklid, but the high mileage and removed catalytic converter are key considerations.
Condition
7
The car has undergone significant modifications and a repaint under current ownership, indicating good care and attention. However, the odometer shows 234k miles, and while the engine was rebuilt, this high mileage and the necessity for emissions testing removal suggest it's not in pristine or outstanding condition. The mention of minor Targa bar repair and the removal of the catalytic converter for emissions indicate it's in very good condition but requires some awareness and potential future work.
