The ONLY antenna listed in my September 1966 options list isOriginally Posted by moito
9303 Versenkbare Antenne, abschließbar 48.50 DM $12.25 901.645.301.00 Antenna, lockable Antenne escamotable, verrouillable Antenna telescopica con serratura
Going back to the 356C Accessories Catalog in Miller & Merritt, Porsche Brochures & Sales Literature: A Source Book 1948-1965 [page 288] there were three antennas:
- 9301 Ausziehbare Antenne/Antenna, manually operated
- 9304 Elektrische Antenne/Antenna, electrically operated
- 9306 Abschließbare antenne/Antenna, lockable
The 356B catalog [page 176] listed only[*]9301 Ausziehbare Antenne/Antenna, manually operated.
It's no surprise the number changed from 9306 to 9303 between the 356C and 911/912 since the antenna's now a bit outboard of the highest point of the fender and goes through the fender at maybe a 20° angle.

Since there's only a single antenna option for the 911 I believe it's most probably the Hirschmann or Bosch antenna we're used to seeing which needs a little key to pull it out of the housing. The photo you reproduced from the 356C brochure shows a Hirschmann. My car 301382 came with a Hirschmann antenna which had lost its tip by the time I got the car.

Also, PET says 901.645.301.00 is "telescopic antenna" nothing fancy.

after an antenna shopping spree in the last weeks i`m now well equipped with hirschmanns and bosch antennas + cables and mounting hardwear.
what would be the correct hirschmann antenna cable lenth?...
NOS i`v 100cm(probably to short)120cm(would be my guess) 130cm 140cm
further i was wondering if this key fob would be correct for 1964. if not what year is it?
thank you
I'll see if I can find the coaxial antenna cable I believe to be original to my '65.
I recognize that key fob: it was a very common item available for virtually all marques. I had one for my 1974 Series III Land Rover. I found two "period" advertisements for key fobs.
1971 MG Mitten Catalog
It might be a little late for a '64:
Wilco advertisement, January 1967 Car and Driver
I think the "Genuine Porsche" key fob would have looked like this:
I bought this at Performance Products in the late 1990s but fobs like this apparently accompanied 356Cs. They come up for sale from time for US$ 200 or so. I have no idea how to tell an early one from a late one.

concerning the key fob: seller sais it`s an original factory item..and he has shown a porsche accessory brouchure from 1967 listing this fob(with rougher leather).
he also has shown me his used fob (rough leather) and we compared the crests and they where identical....the fobs from your period advertisment all have round metal part...
he also thinks the correct fob is the one you think
the key ring you show is one of the rip-offs...

the horse needs to have the eye and it does have a complete different shape.
the back side of the emblem does no have any lines, just plain.

The old coax wasn't with the old antenna. If it crawls out into the light I'll let you know.
