1979 Porsche 924 Manual

NSW • Private

Comments from the seller

This beautiful 5 speed 1979 Porsche 924 is in factory original condition. Original 73,000kms. An unmolested original 924 is becoming very hard to find. This one was kept under cover in a shed, and became part of a deceased estate. Once recommissioned, it was gifted with a fresh coat of paint (7/10) by the previous owner. It was then used on weekends and car shows to show off its remarkable condition. The interior and engine bay speak volumes to its originality. It was soon acquired by a car collector, before my acquisition. Due to storage constraints, it’s time to move her onto the next custodian. Someone who will enjoy her and cherish her stylish looks and impressive drive. Currently stored, it will include a new battery. Has historic plates, which are not transferable. An opportunity to acquire the most underrated, yet very well engineered, Porsche. A fantastic entry level into Porsche ownership and enjoyment. Open to genuine buyer enquiries. Please message me in the first instance. Thank you.
