I wouldn't recommend the early 911 (74-77) like mine or even if it is a 911SC era from 78-83. The 84-87 did not have the G50 transmission but had the better fuel management from 84 on. Rust is definitely a concern with any pre 90s and they can be quite bad. Mine has had body work but the structure is pretty sound. Mine has a rebuilt motor and the transmission was rebuilt 10K ago. A rebuild can run 8-10K+. I love my transmission so the G50 is not that big of a deal to me. I think the interior and exterior look of the 80s 911 Carrera is much nicer than my generation. My radio does not work and you know what - who cares - the motor revving is amazing. I have to say I have a soft heart for a SAAB and Porsche. Expense wise be careful. Do a PPI!!! If you have a good car they are reliable. If you have repairs, then it's expensive.
