Default anyone here once own a 77 911s? one of my favorite cars

one of my 1st 911's was a very nice 77 911's - had the upgraded head studs/11 blade fan - silver/black w/H4 headlights(after photo was snapped)

this has got to be one of my favorite aircooled cars to drive - great hp-weight ratio - nimble/quick and to me one of the nicest looking aircooled 911 designs - love those cookie cutters

wish i wasn't in the photo but heres an old pic

Very nice car. I would love to have one those as a weekend driver next to a 930 turbo. Takes a real man to post a pic like that over the internet

Had a 76 Targa in a bright Metallic Green over black. It was a fun 911 - my first and had is several year till I needed cash to start a business. Though I put lots of time in it with cosmetic refurbishment, it was a pretty reliable Porsche and i sold it for the same $12,000 I paid for it after 5 years. Wish I could buy it back for that price now.

When I lived in WI (Sheboygan / Port Washington area) I knew of a '77 S....it was a pale yellow color with black interior. If I could just remember the dudes name. At that time I had a '67 911 with a 2.7 in it. Fun cars.
