1977 Porsche 930 Coupe Turbo Additional Info:
This1977 Porsche 930 Turbo Carrera was delivered to its original owner in Malibu, California by Roth Porsche+Audi of Salem, Oregon in October 1976. Now showing 72k miles, this example is #101 of 727 US-spec 930s produced in 1977. It is finished in paint-to-sample Casablanca Beige Metallic over a leather-to-sample interior, which also features factory sport seats. The car remained with its previous owner for over 30 years, and during that time a rebuild of the numbers-matching turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six was commissioned along with a full repaint. The original 4-speed manual transaxle received a new clutch assembly at the same time. Records are said to document consistent maintenance, including a servicing in March of this year. This blue-plate 930 is now being offered with its original owner’s manual, warranty and maintenance books, a Porsche CoA, and a clean California title.A 2010 professional repaint was commissioned in the original paint to sample Casablanca Beige Metallic and remains in aperfectcondition. A slight blemish in the right taillight was incurred during the repaint.16″ staggered Fuchs alloys are shod in BFGoodrich G-Force tires. The trunk contains the factory spare, as well as the original jack and tool kit. Additional factory options included a power passenger-side mirror and an electric sunroof.
The interior was finished in a leather-to-sample color from the factory, and the Turbo-exclusiveBlaupunkt Bamberg radio remains in place. Aftermarket additions appear limited to a period anti-theft keypad. The odometer currently displays 72,523 miles, which is correct based on known history and records.
Factory sport seats benefit from new upholstery, and detailed gallery photos of the interior highlight the condition of the leather, carpets, and touch surfaces.
The turbocharged 3.0-liter flat-six and 4-speed transmission reportedly benefit from consistent maintenance throughout their lifetime, as documented in the included records dating back to new. A full rebuild was commissioned by the longterm previous owner in 2006 at 71k miles. Work was performed by specialistTRE Motorsportsand included:
- New main, rod, and intermediate bearings
- New Goetze piston ring set
- Replaced rocker arm shafts
- Valve job with new guides, springs, stem seals, and valves where needed
- Crankshaft inspected and micro polished within factory tolerances
- New chains, ramps, idler pulley gears, and cam drive gears
Additional work performed by TRE included an inspection of the turbo, replacement of the fuel injectors and mounting blocks, a new cap and rotor, spark plugs, and new clutch assembly. Compression readings indicate a consistent ~120 psi across all cylinders and are shown in the gallery.
Stamping #6870064 confirms the engine as original. The stamping #7770162 on the 4-speed transmission is shown in the photo gallery and also corresponds with the CoA.
