Dealer Description:
This car is best described as a drive-able restoration project. Depending on what the intended outcome is, this 911 can be driven as is with some tune up work, or it could be completely restored to original specification and it could also serve as a great basis to build a personalized and unique “outlaw Hot Rod” 911.
What we have is a largely original and complete 1967 Porsche 911 Sunroof Coupe. The car has been with its current California owner for the last 6 years and has had some service done. The car runs, drives and shifts well, but the original Weber carbs will require some tune up and the engine needs to be re-sealed.
The body is straight and as far as we can tell accident free. There is some rust in the front right fender and door and also around the front suspension, which needs to be addressed. The paint is old and in presentable but not great shape with scratches and chips along most of the body.
Door and panel fit is nice. The engine is original, correct and numbers matching 2.0L (911/06). The car was originally a polo red car and equipped with a sunroof.
The interior is partly restored (seats, headliner) and generally in very good shape.
The vehicle comes with the original radio, spare, jack and complete but very aged toolkit.
A great opportunity to acquire a numbers matching, early 911 in reasonably good shape to enjoy immediately, restore or modify!
Please study all the photos closely to evaluate the condition of this car!

Auction Description:
- Ultra rare '300' chassis numbers were the first few 911s off the line in March 1965
- #300723 dates from mid-March 1965 and was built in left-hand drive destined for California
- According to its Porsche COA, it was finished in Signal Red (6407) with Black Leatherette and Peptia inlays, Webasto heater and Blaupunkt “Frankfurt” Radio
- Imported by our vendor from the USA around 30 years ago and UK registered SPY 271C
- Used regularly up until three years ago when it was put into dry storage as part of our vendor's collection
- Although running well prior to retirement, should be considered a light restoration or recommissioning project
- Sensibly guided opportunity to own a very desirable, really early 911 in its purest form
We can glean from the Porsche COA that #300723 rolled off the line in mid-March 1965 resplendent in a coat of Signal Red (6407) with a smart interior in black leatherette with Peptia cloth inlays. It was fitted from new with a Webasto petrol heater (P1018) and a Blaupunkt “Frankfurt” Radio before being despatched to California where its first owner would have parted with around $6,500. Until its arrival on these shores around 30 years ago little is know of this little Porsche's adventures in the US but certainly, since then it has been in the care of its current owner in North Yorkshire, for most of those years as a daily driver but for the last few it's been kept cosy in his heated garage amongst the rest of his collection.
Although running well prior to its retirement, the car needs to be considered as a recommissioning or possibly restoration project. It sits well and generally looks quite smart although in need of some detailing. The car hadn't run for three years and there was evidence of a small oil leak when we collected it so the decision was taken not to start it so that aspect will need some consideration. In addition to all the regular owner's documentation, there is a copy of a magazine article featuring SPY 271C and indeed that attractive registration will remain with the car.
It is incredibly rare to find a first-year SWB 911 so unmolested and free of updates and modifications, making this example ideal to be gently returned to the purity of form that wowed the citizens of Stuggart as it rolled out of the factory in early 1965. Alternatively, if that's not on your agenda, there are a number of suitable (pre-1966) motor racing championships for which the car is eligible including events at Goodwood and Monaco and particularly the Peter Auto SWB 2.0-litre Cup for which SPY 271C would be perfect.
