    Translating "pace" into French is "rythme"...so R probably indicates pace car. S for the safety cars.

    Japan 300 KPH speedometer with red range markings and non-factory rear seat bottoms. Rear seat belts may have been a factory option in '77 but I doubt these are original. The 1.0 bar boost gauge first appeared on the 1978 3.3 liter 930's.

    Wow idart, as always amazed.
    from that link, what is this car? Look at the rear fender line, a WTL prototype? Funky, also the different style Fuchs`front and rear...

    And the second one, that rear spoiler rubber oddly looks like a mixture between a 3.3 tea tray and a 3.0 whale tail?

    wow. this thread keeps amazing me, lots of knowledge!
    What is that 3rd exhaust pipe, that oddly looks like frozen wastegate exhaust? And what on earth is that "turbo banana" mentioned?

    Are thee any SC/RS survivors being traded? Feels like a lost species!

    THX for sharing...

    Very cool...I should have known that '74 Carrera RS would not have black painted Fuchs. I like the clock delete.

    I must say it is slightly concerning when Porsche Ag accepts or features cars in its own Museum that are not in correct-for-period spec. IMVHO, of course.

    The "Turbo Banana" is the rear trailing arm from the 930... it's aluminum.

    The shock is attached to it.

    It's nicknamed a 'banana arm' due to it's sort of banana shape; all 911's have them; the 930 arm is slightly different.

    Note the spec sheet describes it as Type 930/18.

    From the auction: "One of the harder finds was a new set of leathers for the interior, a single set which they happened upon at the Porsche factory, which was replaced at same time."

    The replacement interior is a mix of 930 styles. The rear deck is a 1975 non-pleated style but the rear seats are 1977+ but without the turbo script on the seat back (perhaps from a 911).

    Aren't 76s supposed to have flat door panels?

    '76's had pleated door panels as did the '77's but with added panel unlock knobs.

    About the turbo script on the seat back, my 75 don't have it and it seems to be the original matérial. An other buyer of an original 75 ( non restore) was surprise his car didńt have it too. Any info about it ?

    I miss this add .. Seems to be already sold.
    I give you the text.


    75 Turbo #930 570 0274

    First year for the Turbo
    #274 of 284 hand built "Homologation" Turbos
    1 of 15 RHD '75 Turbos
    1 of 1 '75 Turbos in Salmon Metallic with White interior


    This '75 Turbo #0274 which is a documented two owner car that was specially ordered by a wealthy American living in HongKong. The car was then sold to the second owner, also an American stationed in HongKong, in 1992. The second owner brought the car to the states in 2002 when transfered back. I purchased #0274 about a year ago and have been driving it to Cars & Coffee all summer.



    The car was certainly a special order car;

    Salmon Metallic
    White interior
    Porsche graphics (Crazy looking)
    Passenger mirror (which is really the Drivers mirror on RH cars)
    RH drive
    Sunroof

    I have attached the following;
    1. the Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche
    2. four (4) photos in .pdf format of the car while in Hong Kong in 1975
    3. three photos of car in current condition

    I am told by several reputable Porsche sources that this is the ONLY example known in this color combination. The car has been repainted but has matching number motor and no accidents.

    $175k or trade for low, low mileage 997 GT2
