Yep, 1979 is a clone of the Mata. Or is it the same one? 1979 later made commercial? Whatever, it is not the one requested. Nothing matches but the 'S'. I ran a match but no result. So this asks for further digging. Do not guarantee a result though ...
One question to EJ. Why this big image when all we need is the top right bit? Next time please get rid of the garbage. Thanks. - re: Any idea what font this is???

That font is exclusive to Porsche. They won't even give it to their American advertising agencies.
And if anyone is trying to use it for commercial purposes (right down to the lonely guy who makes 10 pieces of jewelry to sell) and Porsche finds out about it - they send their lawyers in...
Not one of the fonts you want around here.
They've used it for years - my first encounter 1978 - on a brand new 1979 911 SC - on the side in that script it said Targa. - re: Porsche Turbo

Thanks koeiekat...
I think that you are very close to the mark with the VAG Font tip. After looking into the VAG font Family it was discovered that it was originally developed for Volkswagen in 1979. This is around the time that the Powell company started using this modified form. I also think that it may have been a company patented font type, thus why it has been imposable to find out there. This font is only used by Powell Peralta (SkateOne) and is semi famous due to the huge popularity of the Powell Peralta brand name, thus its relationship to skateboarding.
Thanks for searching around for the font and I will send the boys and girls an email over at SkateOne.
Thanks again.
PS. I love getting things for free, but a shiny head I can do without for now. I would be happy to wait a few years (say 20-30) before I need to start applying car polish to the top of my melon. Maybe I should start wearing an ice-cream bucket on my head, whist I do my search. I love ice - so thatâ??s a win win.
Cheers for now
