1977 Porsche 924

The 924 was originally a joint project of Volkswagen and Porsche created by the joint sales and marketing company funded by Porsche and VW to market and sell sports cars. For Volkswagen, it was intended to be that company's flagship coupé sports car and was dubbed "Project 425" during its development. For Porsche, it was to be its entry-level sports car replacing the 914. At the time, Volkswagen lacked a significant internal research and design division for developing sports cars; further, Porsche had been doing the bulk of the company's development work anyway, per a deal that went back to the 1940s. In keeping with this history, Porsche was contracted to develop a new sporting vehicle with the caveat that this vehicle must work with an existing VW/Audi straight-four engine. Porsche chose a rear-wheel drive layout and a rear-mounted transaxle for the design to help provide 48/52 front/rear weight distribution; this slight rear weight bias aided both traction and brake balance.
This low mileage 924 is in excellent condition "Survivor" original including its 8-track, tools, and working factory AC.  This mid-year 77 1/2 model features the 110 hp engine upgrade from Porsche and runs and drives like new.  The car was originally delivered to California in 1977 and stayed with its original owner for 40 years.  It was later purchased by its second owner from Hemmings in 2016 where it was listed as "Hemmigs find of the day.” The car has its Porsche Production Specifications certificate, extensive service records dating back to the early ‘80s including work at Kelly Moss of Madison and, with 32,347 actual miles, it shows and drives exceptionally well.  Plus, according to the Rennbow web site, the Bahama Blue Metallic paint is exceptionally rare as is the car itself.
