This particular 930 Turbo was completed at the Zuffenhausen based Porsche plant in February of 1978, the first production year for the 3.3-Liter 930. It left the factory in similar colors to what it wears today. It was built to California state specifications and equipped with an electric sunroof, two side mirrors and the distinct Turbo Designation side trim in black. The exterior color was silver metallic and the interior was completed in light red leather.
The car was delivered new through Redwood Motors, Inc. of Eureka, California on April 13, 1978 to a Mr. Ron Huchendorf of Fortuna, California. The car was soon after purchased by Mr. Harold Murrish, the uncle of the current owner, and later passed onto to Mr. Murrish's brother, the current owner's father.
The car is original with the exception of a new interior fitted to factory specification in 2013. Currently the car has just 67,000 miles on the odometer.By Daniel Vaughan | Jul 2019
