1978 Porsche 911

Engine/mechanical work completed by John Walker
John Walker is a legend in the world of air-cooled Porsches, and he's the one behind all of the motor work here. His shop is in Washington where the car was built by Danny Gherman, who specializes in Porsches and is considered one of the absolute best Porsche body and paint guys in the Pacific Northwest. The combination of Danny Gherman's build quality, body and paint work, and John Walker on the mechanicals make this one truly special build.

The 1978 Porsche 930 Turbo is one of the most iconic air-cooled performance cars ever built, and this example has been thoughtfully transformed into a purpose-built driver's machine while preserving the unmistakable character of Porsche's legendary Turbo. It underwent an extensive bare-metal restoration and was refinished in striking Tangerine with vintage-inspired racing graphics, creating a one-of-a-kind appearance that perfectly complements its motorsport-inspired upgrades. The car is street legal, has never been tracked, and runs on pump gas.

Performance has been elevated with a refreshed turbocharged and intercooled 3.3-liter flat-six featuring a K27 turbocharger, Andial Racing intercooler, SSI stainless-steel heat exchangers, and a custom-fabricated exhaust system, delivering an exhilarating air-cooled driving experience. The chassis has been extensively upgraded with Elephant Racing reinforcements, KW Clubsport coilovers, Brembo brakes, and lightweight 17-inch BBS E88 wheels, giving this 930 exceptional handling and stopping power to match its performance.

Inside, the cabin embraces its competition-inspired personality with Recaro Pole Position racing seats, Schroth harnesses, RS-style carpeting and door panels, a MOMO Prototipo steering wheel, and a professionally installed roll bar. With just 645 miles driven since its comprehensive refurbishment, extensive build records, and a carefully selected collection of premium components, this 1978 Porsche 930 Turbo is an exceptional opportunity to own a uniquely built air-cooled Porsche that blends vintage racing heritage with modern performance.
