Description of 1974 Porsche 911 Slantnose Cabriolet Conversion |
Slant nose, widebody, and a whale tail...yup, this is the custom Porsche from your bedroom wall. So how come this 1974 Porsche 911 isn't anywhere close to a six-figure car? Read on...This is genuinely the Porsche you dreamed about, with custom touches and all. But first, you probably know by the year that this is not an original Flachbau "slant nose" 911. Of course, most people at the stoplights can tell the year of a 911. More importantly, with a conversion of this quality, no one is going to question that it's a premium-level Porsche. But it's more than just the flat face that makes this car such as stunner. It has been given a high quality build that adds the wider body, with slotted rear cooling ducts behind the doorline, and extra room for the wider rear tires. And the custom touches don't end there. The car's turbo-style "whale tail" stands out, to make sure people really see it. It even has shaved door handles with remote poppers, and later model Turbo alloy wheels. Its all been professional painted in a metallic medium blue that has so much clearcoat, the curves of the 911 look like a waterfall. So yes, it's the full custom Porsche that you created in your daydreams before you even had your driver's license. But unlike the car in your mind, this one is real and up for grabs.The custom feeling continues inside with the Recaro bucket seats. You grab the 911's classic three-spoke steering wheel, and Porsche's race-ready sensibilities means the tachometer is directly in front of you. The rest of the instruments surround this in their own clearly marked pods to give you a comprehensive view of what's going on with the motor. The German engineering means the stick shift is at that perfect placement for your right hand. This is a true driver's car that you'll love letting the wind whip through the cabin as you row through the gears. But just in case you need to think about the passenger, there are provisions for air conditioning and an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo.The 2.7-liter boxer flat-six shows plenty of signs of being the car's original motor, which is something you always like to see in a Porsche. The engine bay is very nicely detailed and extremely clean, showing no evidence of modifications or questionable workmanship, just precise German engineering the way it's supposed to be. On the road the unmistakable Porsche rumble is hypnotic. You utilize the control of the five-speed manual to take advantage of the light curb weight and incredible torque that make this an iconic sports car. Driving a Porsche hard through the corners is a fun and unique experience for true enthusiasts, and everything can remain in control thanks to the amazing four-wheel disc brakes and the grip of Toyo performance tires.This is the custom Porsche that cost a little more than your poster, but a heck of a lot less than what you will find it anywhere else. But you weren't the only daydreamer out there, so hurry up and grab this custom German drop top. Call today!! |
