This striking 1981 Porsche 911SC Targa is offered for sale with a California salvage title and was professionally rebuilt in the 1990s as a full all-metal wide-body Turbo–style conversion—no fiberglass or plastic panels.
There are no signs of frame damage (please refer to the Carfax image). Based on available history, the vehicle was likely salvaged at a time when market values were significantly lower, making the Turbo-style conversion a worthwhile upgrade.
The car has been recently serviced and lightly restored, resulting in a unique outlaw-style 911 that blends classic Porsche character with a bold, custom presence.
Recent Updates & Highlights:
Engine service and brake service completed
New Fuchs-style wheels and tires
New black and white houndstooth interior
Fresh paint in a custom color with period-correct decals
Original A/C serviced and functioning as expected for this era

This 911 is an absolute joy to drive—lively, engaging, and guaranteed to draw attention, earning thumbs-up at every stoplight.
Enjoy it as-is for maximum character, or take it to the next level with future engine upgrades. A truly special driver-focused Porsche with presence and personality.
