The Porsche 911SC, produced from 1978 to 1983, represented a significant evolution in the long-running 911 lineage. Following the Carrera 3.0, the "SC" or Super Carrera, aimed to offer a more universally appealing and robust package. It featured a naturally aspirated 3.0-liter flat-six engine, initially producing 180 horsepower, known for its bulletproof reliability and strong torque delivery. While the SC was a comfortable and capable grand tourer, Porsche’s "GT" cars, particularly the 993-generation GT2, emerged from a very different ethos: unadulterated, homologated racing performance. The GT2, born from BPR Global GT Series regulations, was a turbocharged, wide-bodied monster, stripped of luxuries and built for the track, becoming an icon of aggressive, no-compromise Porsche engineering. This 1979 Porsche 911SC Coupe presents a fascinating blend of these two distinct philosophies. While it left the factory in the desirable Oak Green Metallic (265), it now wears a commanding black exterior over a matching black interior, showcasing a comprehensive aftermarket GT2 conversion body. This transformation dramatically alters its stance, featuring the aggressive lines and substantial rear spoiler reminiscent of its track-focused brethren. Power is delivered through a 5-speed manual transmission mated to its flat-six engine, and the car is equipped with fuel injection, four-wheel disc brakes with Porsche-branded calipers, and dual exhaust outlets. Inside, a Martini Racing steering wheel enhances the enthusiast appeal, complemented by VDO instrumentation and Bosch headlights with Hella taillights. The aggressive aesthetic is completed with 18-inch wheels. This unique 911SC offers a compelling opportunity to experience a classic air-cooled Porsche with the visually dramatic presence of a GT2.
