iambon, she is awesome ! I always loved the white / red CS's. I built a replica track car from a '78 SC with a '84 3.2......loved that car but sold it to get the GT3. I also have 1 of the 28 CS's imported into the US, the only Guards Red car in the US. Pics below. iambon, it has been difficult in the US to figure out selling prices as most sell from one collector to another. Even when they do sell at dealers (an Irish Green CS sold at Road Scholars lately), the dealer is unwilling to share details. Can you give me an idea of what CS's in Europe are selling for these days?



'78 SC with a 84 3.2

The real CS

This is a truly exceptional 911 Clubsport which I had the privilege to work on here in the UK before it made the trip to iambon in Thailand. Hi iambon, good to see you here.

Due to Thailand's hot and humid climate, the fitting of air conditioning is a must have. Being a genuine CS, it never had such luxuries.

In keeping with the lightweight nature of the CS, our ElectroCooler AC system was a natural choice adding just 7.5 kg (16.5 lbs) to the weight of the car.

Here are some pictures of the install. No holes were drilled in the bodyshell and the cockpit remains as stock.


Replacement blower in place

Condenser, fan and drier

Electric Compressor next to battery

Hungry hippos! My SC in background.
