The car was delivered from the factory in Signal Red (6407) and is said to have been refinished in 1978. Exterior details include a luggage rack, a left mirror, a twin-grille engine cover, pop-out rear quarter windows, and body-color bumpers with dual exhaust outlets exiting through the rear overriders. The weather stripping on the windows is damaged, and a paint blemish on the roof can be viewed in the gallery.
Chrome-finished 15″ steel wheels wear polished hubcaps with full-color Porsche crests and are mounted with 165-series Michelin XZX tires. A full-size spare with a Goodyear tire is stowed in the front trunk, and stopping power is handled by four-wheel disc brakes. Service in 2021 reportedly included flushing the brake fluid and replacing the brake hoses.
The low-back front bucket and folding individual rear seats are upholstered in black leatherette and joined by a body-color dashboard with a black dash pad. Additional appointments include an analog clock, a Becker Europa TR push-button radio, a passenger-side grab handle, a locking glove compartment, and front lap belts. The headliner is stained, the left door armrest pad is cracked, and the selling dealer notes that the radio produces excessive static.
A wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation consisting of a central 6k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, and gauges for fuel level and oil temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 57k miles.
The 1.6-liter flat-four is equipped with dual Weber carburetors, and the selling dealer stats service in 2021 included performing a valve adjustment as well as replacing the fuel tank, fuel pump, and carburetors. The battery was replaced in February 2023. The selling dealer notes an oil drip when the car is parked.
The engine-case stamping shown above reads P☆711695☆.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle. Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery.
