Description
It arrived in Sweden from Italy in 1977 with its Italian owner who was residing in Sweden at the time and has over the years had a line of owners, all of whom have been caring and Porsche-enthusiastically aware. The previous owner was based in Denmark, but spent a lot of time in Sweden, was active in the Porsche Club Sweden and therefore the car retained its Swedish registration. This owner was also the one who had the car repainted. The current owner bought the car in 2003 and during his ownership, he has made several updates, including restoring the gearbox in 2005 and performing an engine condition check with disassembly and new gaskets and seals in 2009. The entire list of work is detailed among the pictures.

Condition

Mechanical condition
Nicely updated engine to 2.7 liters and just over 240 horsepower. The engine was built in the early nineties by Porsche specialist Micke Svens. It pulls with a lively, familiar, and pleasant torque, and the gearbox is as good as a 915-box can be. A detailed technical specification of the engine can be found under 'Owner's Comments', or alternatively among the pictures. There is also a detailed list of actions that the current owner has performed.
-
Interior condition
Stylish, period-typical, and now sought-after and exclusive Recaro RS seats from the early seventies. A small tear in the vinyl on the driver's seat. The Heico roll bar was installed in 2002, which also eliminated the back seat, but the backrests and seat cushions are included, as well as the original front seat bases, steering wheel, and sun visors. Nice, newer headliner, as well as the carpets in the cabin and in the cargo area.
-
Exterior condition
Stylish paint in the original color, Bahia Red 022. The car was repainted in 2001 from a bare-metal body. In 2018, the car received a new floor in the cargo area and a minor repair at the bottom of the right door. Nice original 15" Fuchs, 7" front and back with newer Bridgestone Potenza S02. A set of extra Fuchs 15x7 with older R-tires is available for purchase separately for a potential new owner.

General condition

Owner's comment
The engine has been rebuilt based on a new 07R magnesium block, new 2.7 liter NiCaSil cylinders and pistons, RSR camshafts, sport muffler, balanced crankshaft, slightly modified heads, producing around 240 hp.
Weltmeister anti-roll bars at the front and rear (fully adjustable).
Lowered with Bilstein shocks (same as on the 911RS).
Slotted and ventilated discs both front and rear.
Renovated original brake calipers (aluminum S/RS front) with racing pads.
New copper brake lines throughout.
New master brake cylinder.
Brake hoses reinforced with stainless steel mesh.
Super blue racing brake fluid.
The car was lowered and had practically no body roll, but has been raised back to original height.
The body has been repainted in the original Bahia Red color from bare metal. Front and rear bumper strips, indicator lenses, rubber seals around all windows have been replaced. The Porsche crest and all decals in the engine compartment were also replaced with new ones. All this was done in the summer of 2001.
Internally, all carpets have been replaced with new ones that match the original Recaro RS seats.
A Heigo half roll cage (bolted version), which looks tough and also helps to stiffen the body, was installed in June 2002. The rear backrests no longer fit but are kept in case of a return to original. Steering wheel and H-belt from Momo, respectively HEIGO. The car is also equipped with a Weltmeister shift-kit.
New headliner and new carpets inside and in the luggage compartment.
The car has standard Fuchs 7x15" rims with Bridgestone Potenza SO2 in good condition.
Gearbox with differential lock reinforced on the crown wheel side.
Facts about the model
In September 1973, the 911 underwent its most significant external update during its production period. New bumpers, adapted to meet legal requirements in the U.S. market, changed the appearance of the car, especially in combination with the increasing replacement of chrome decorative strips with black-painted decor. The engine size was increased again, now to 2.7 liters. The three base models were now called 911, 911S, and 911 Carrera.
In the fall of 1976, the Carrera model received a three-liter engine, and just a year later, the entire 911 lineup was replaced by a single model, the 911 SC. For the rest of the seventies, Porsche focused its resources on front-engine cars, while the 911 was left without updates. The intention was to eventually replace the old rear-engine model, but customer demand remained high. After changes in the company's management in the fall of 1980, Porsche decided to listen to its customers and refocus on the 911. The first result of this new focus was shown at the International Motor Show in Geneva in 1982 when Porsche presented a third body variant, a fully open cabriolet.
