AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A premium automotive technical poster dedicated to the 1973 Porsche 911 S 2.4 Targa — one of the most desirable early 911 variants, combining the character of Porsche’s classic air-cooled flat-six with the distinctive removable-roof Targa body.
This artwork celebrates the Porsche 911 S 2.4 Targa through a clean engineering blueprint-inspired composition. Rather than focusing on a dramatic three-quarter hero image, the poster presents the car through precise orthographic views, dimensional references and structured factory-style technical data.
The 911 S 2.4 Targa
The 1973 model belongs to the final evolution of the classic long-hood 911 before Porsche introduced the redesigned impact-bumper generation.
The 911 S represented the high-performance naturally aspirated version of the range, combining a lightweight body with a more powerful version of Porsche’s air-cooled flat-six engine.
In Targa form, the car added Porsche’s distinctive removable roof panel and fixed rollover structure while preserving the fundamental proportions and mechanical character of the 911.
2.4-Litre Air-Cooled Flat-Six
Mounted behind the rear axle is a 2341 cc air-cooled horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine.
In European 911 S specification, the engine produces approximately 190 PS at 6,500 rpm and 216 Nm of torque at 5,200 rpm.
The naturally aspirated flat-six uses an 84.0 mm bore and 70.4 mm stroke, combining compact dimensions with the distinctive mechanical character that became inseparable from early Porsche 911 models.
Five-Speed Manual Transmission
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox.
The rear-engine, rear-wheel-drive architecture remains central to the character of the 911, concentrating the engine mass behind the rear axle and creating the unusual weight distribution that became a defining element of Porsche’s sports-car engineering.
Targa Architecture
The Targa combines elements of both coupé and open-top design.
A removable roof section provides an open-air driving experience, while the characteristic fixed Targa bar remains one of the model’s most recognizable visual features.
Together with the panoramic rear window, slim pillars and compact dimensions, it gives the 911 S Targa a profile immediately distinguishable from the conventional coupé.
Technical Dimensions
The poster presents the vehicle using carefully arranged dimensional drawings from multiple perspectives.
Wheelbase: 2271 mm
Front track: 1372 mm
Rear track: 1354 mm
Overall length: 4147 mm
Overall width: 1610 mm
Overall height: 1320 mm
These dimensions demonstrate just how compact the early 911 remained compared with later generations.
Lightweight Construction
With a curb weight of approximately 1075 kg, the 911 S combines relatively modest dimensions and low mass with a high-output naturally aspirated engine.
This lightweight construction contributes significantly to the character of the early 911, emphasizing responsiveness and mechanical simplicity rather than relying purely on engine output.
Performance
The 2.4-litre flat-six allows the 911 S to reach a top speed of approximately 230 km/h.
Acceleration from 0–100 km/h takes approximately 7 seconds, placing the 911 S among the serious European performance cars of its period.
Detailed Technical Composition
The artwork includes:
Front orthographic view with dimensional references
Full side elevation of the 911 S Targa
Rear orthographic view with track and height measurements
Large overhead technical view
Detailed representation of the removable Targa roof section
Visible rear-engine compartment detailing
Wheelbase, track, length, width and height measurements
Engine configuration and displacement information
Power and torque specifications
Five-speed manual transmission data
Vehicle weight and performance figures
Period-inspired Porsche technical identification fields
Engineering-style borders and structured specification tables
Vintage Stuttgart technical inspection stamp
Warm ivory archival-paper presentation
The restrained cream background, precise black technical linework and structured engineering layout give the artwork the appearance of an archival Porsche technical document. Subtle aging and inspection-style details reinforce the period character without distracting from the vehicle itself.
