On arrival, the car was evaluated and determined to be a very solid and straight car without and signs of accident damage or structural rust. After arriving in Southern California, the new owner entrusted the specialists at TRE Motorsports and Air Motorsports of Van Nuys, CA with the necessary mechanical and cosmetic refurbishment. At the time of purchase, the overall condition of the car was very presentable and considerable restoration efforts had previously been made, but it was not running and driving as well as it should be due to lack of use. He acquired it from a longtime owner who lived in Northern California's Wine Country and had a respectable stable of vintage Porsches.

This Carrera Targa was purchased by our consignor late in 2015. This 911 is one of just 246 US market Carreras built for the 1974 model year. Although the S and Carrera shared the same powerplant, the Carreras were fitted with flared rear fenders to accommodate a 7” wide rear wheel, a ducktail spoiler identical to the '73 RS and a graphics package that celebrates the historical significance of the nameplate, Carrera. The freshly designed impact bumpers cleaned up the lines that were compromised by the rubber extensions that were bolted to the front of US cars in order to meet safety requirements. 2.7 liters was the new engine displacement across the model lineup with horsepower ranging from 150 (base) to 175 for the S and Carrera. Gone were the T, E and S model designations and the US market was offered a base (not a fair word) 911, a 911S and a 911 Carrera. The Porsche 911 model lineup was completely new for 1974.
