Description
This lovely restored, matching-numbers Porsche 911 is in stunning condition! In its factory-correct colours of Irish green with Brown leather interior. The car has a significant history file from its time in New York before being imported to the UK in 2017. The car received a comprehensive restoration and further reconditioning work from 2019 to 2025. The car now wants for nothing, and is ready for its new owner to cherish and enjoy!
This lovely LHD example was manufactured in Germany in February 1967, being later shipped to the US. The car stayed in New York owned by the same owner until from 1968 to 1990. Later the car was bought by a garage, being looked after impeccably. The car was acquired by the current owner in 2017 who then shipped it to the UK, then decided that although in solid condition, the car would benefit from a comprehensive bare metal restoration in 2019. It was restored to new condition, with any corrosion dealt appropriately. In this stunning shade of Irish Green, the exterior displays superbly. All exterior trim glass and bumpers displayed as new, with the trim re-chromed in 2021. The interior is in excellent condition with leather work, showing very few signs of wear since its re-trim in 2022. The car is in great mechanical condition, with the engine repainted, ancillaries having been overhauled and the gearbox receiving new fork and clutch release bearing in 2024. Overall, the car presents superbly and wants for nothing.
Spanning over 6 decades, the Porsche 911 has become an icon. The epitome of the all rounder and everyday sports car, giving great performance, reliability and practicality. With every update Porsche has pushed the boundary of engineering, making each iteration evermore technologically advanced. The original design is still sighted for its purity, putting the driver at the centre of the experience, with a high revving flat 6 and nimble light weight chassis.
Classic 911s are exceptional to own, offering reliability and a great driving experience. Weighing around 1, 000 kg they are exceedingly fun to drive. They have a very distinct power band around 5, 000 rpm, making it fun and engaging to keep them within it. At normal speeds the car is very easy to drive and allows for light communicative steering, with a great balance and lovely raspy engine note.
The car features independent torsion bar suspension and disc brakes all round, something quite revolutionary for the time. The steering is a lovely unassisted rack and pinion unit, providing precise steering. The Kronprinz 15” steel wheels are in good condition with embossed chrome hub caps. The tires are Prelli Cinturato 165/ 15 front and rear dated to 2014.
The car comes with a spare tyre and a large paper file of invoices as summarised below.
