1966 PORSCHE 911

Details

This early matching-numbers 911 has been beautifully restored inside and out. The exterior was stripped to bare metal, the necessary rust work performed, and elegantly finished light ivory while the exterior trim, seals and gaskets were replaced or refurbished as necessary. A new black interior was installed, with the seats neatly accented by houndstooth inserts. The wood-paneled dash and steering wheel was refurbished as well, as was the period Blaupunkt radio. The matching-numbers 2.0-liter

6-cylinder engine and 5-speed manual transmission were gone through, and an MSD-triggered ignition system was installed with stock points. A new SSI exhaust system was fitted, and the optional Webasto heater was restored, although it has not been operated with gasoline yet. The Porsche retains the original cast-iron weights in the front bumper corners, originally installed by dealers to improve the handling of the early short-wheelbase cars. This early 911 has been driven less than 1,300 miles since the restoration work was performed, and rides on correct type silver-painted steel wheels with chrome hubcaps. The Porsche includes its Certificate of Authenticity, restoration photos, a correct tool kit and jack, and features the optional rear seat delete unit.
