FS: '75 Porsche 911 13-B Turbo

Another car has caught my eye so I am planning to sell the Rotary Porsche. It's a quick, turnkey, fun car I purchased a little over a year ago from a forum member. The paint is in good shape and the car has always been garaged.

I have used the car as a weekend driver, but would not hesitate to drive cross country. Back in April I drove the car up to NC for the Deals Gap Rotary Rally and it ran great.

Typically drive with the top off, but the aftermarket Targa top I purchased for the car is included... also an autopower rollbar that was never installed.

Asking $8,000 for the car.

That blow off noise is certainly not one i would be expecting from that car. That said, its really and interesting car. Hope the new owner enjoys it.

Yes, the blow off valve definitely gives away that the car is not stock.

As distinctive as the rotary exhaust note is, I've been surprised at how many semi-literate car folks have thought the flat 6 could make that sound with aggressive mufflers.

PS Emissions exempt nearly everywhere in the US since it's pre 1979.

Bump for a cool car. Saw (and heard) it at the Tail of the Dragon this spring.
