Hi & welcome 
Realistically if you are after advice etc on a 1977 car you are probabally best popping over to www.impactbumpers.com
There is a really good forum and a great knowledge base specific to the impact bumper cars .
DDK is a great place for the pre-74 911's ( & all pre74 Porsches ) and if you are wanting to back-date your car to the early style

The SC kicks off in '78, so a '77 3.0 would be a Carrera 3.o. Either is a fabulous car (heavily biased opinion there with no apologies given).
Some good impact bumper info on DDK for sure, plus more on impact bumpers too if you fancy a look.

Welcome to the world of Porsche!
Moreover, you will often find the same people lurking on both fora.
With regards to your question about pointers: well there is actually on impactbumpers.com quite a bit of information regarding specific areas to the C3/ SC type of cars from people who have asked a similar question to yours. Have a browse: a world will open to you.
Best of luck ah and before we forget: Pictures pictures pictureS!!!!!!

Dragon , Have you already bought this car or are you veiwing ? My SC is a late 77 and looked stunning with massive history file. See my restoration thread (My restoration baptism ) To see that history files dont stop bodging bast***s and galvanizing dont stop rot after 30 years
