This 1988 Porsche 930 Turbo finished in Venetian Blue is a stunning example of peak 80’s 911. Falling in the partial restoration category this two-owner survivor features fully original paint and interior that simply underwent a full paint restoration. When we sourced this 911 for its new owner who was after an original accident free low mileage example. Despite its excellent cosmetic condition we discovered that all mechanical systems required full restoration to bring it back to its factory original condition.
The powertrain was removed for a full engine reseal from case to heads, we had the cylinders polished and installed new rings, the turbo was rebuilt, a new clutch installed and transmission was resealed and fine-tuned. All engine components were thoroughly cleaned, refinished and repainted where necessary.
The chassis was fully updated with an overhaul of the brake system with new brake lines, master cylinder, pads and rotors installed while we were able to rebuild the original brake calipers. New shocks and struts were fitted and suspension components were media blasted and ceramic coated for factory original look.
Inside the interior was in excellent condition but we did update the radio to the Porsche Classic PCM and fixed a few wiring deficiencies throughout. The air-conditioning system was overhauled and recharged and every system is running perfectly.
This has proven to be an excellent 930 Turbo with a solid history and with just enough mileage that the new owner can thoroughly enjoy driving it as much as he wants which was his wish since the start. A true Porsche Classic to be enjoyed for years to come.
