I will be corrected by the hive but a 75 is the 2.7 motor and not really an SC.  That motor had a bad rep, thermal reactor or something instead of cats, copper valve guides that wore out quickly.  If I had 50K to buy an air cooled 911 it would not be that model.

Correct. That is a 911S.

The hope here is that it's a solid car that has been mechanically sorted by this point. Maybe, maybe not. 
 

She sure is pretty though...

My bad - I called it an SC mistakenly.

........and it's SOLD. It only took a bit over 24 hours. I'll bet the colour was what did it, and the very low mileage, it's a great looking car.

I would.  What other 911s can be had for under 50k anymore?  (No 964s.  I wouldn't buy a 964 if it were $500)

Thanks for that link to Rennbow! The closest I can come is "Ice (Silver) Green Metallic," but at best I'd call it am 85% match to the ad from their photo array. Maybe it was custom. (It sure isn't Emerald, Jade, Irish, Lime, or Olive, which are Rennbow's other 1975 greens.)

Hey, I just “helped” my brother buy a $40 pair of Keds, so let’s keep the party going.
