Body colour mirrors 1977+ if genuine. Front arches in main are custom - too big for normal 911s or turbo, which suggests joke wide wheels; Turbo never had silver wheel finish. So main is modified 1974+ 911 of some sort with targa (or cabrio?) roof, but no wing indicators so no later than 1980. Thumbs too dark to be sure but might be a 2nd car, or not?? Best guess - modified 1977+ 911 Carrera Targa.
