Default Another new guy to 911

Hello,
I bought my first 911 few months ago: a 1979 911 SC Targa. Converted to Carbureture (Zenith). I was going for simplicity. The engine was rebuilt by Motor Meister but it seems to be in excellent shape and no problems. It was fitted by performance cam shafts. So far I love the car. It is so different than the 944 I had. I guess with Targa I lose rigidity but it will be great in summer time!

NOS is short for "Nos ure Ish uda use dmotor meister for the rebuild."

Sorry, that was very bad of me. Welcome to the board. The pictures are awsome and so is the car. I hope you are very active and start lots of topics. The guys here are the best of the best.....
