1973 Porsche 911S CoupeComprehensively restored 911S from the last year of production of the real S. This car has its number matching motor and is in the original color of Signal Yellow. According to the Certificate of Authenticity it left the factory with the following options installed:
VIN 9113301160
Engine: 6331863
Signal Yellow (52)
Brown Leatherette (26)
- US Equipment
- Koni Shocks
- Blaupunkt Radio
- White Fog Lights
- Tinted Glass All Around
All of these options, except the US Equipment are present. H4 headlights, Euro turn signals front and rear, and the chrome bumperettes in the rear while deleting the fronts. When purchased the car was red and in poor condition. There was significant rust in the rear quarters, pans, front and rear latch panels, and one rear longitudinal. Both the inner and outer rocker were also replaced. Full photo documentation of the restoration and metal work.
The matching 2.4 liter MFI motor was completely stripped and rebuilt using Mahle pistons. The crank was machined and the heads. Nothing was left untouched. The MFI pump was sent to Gus and rebuilt. The 915 transmission is correct, but I cannot confirm if it is original to the car. It was also disassembled and completely rebuilt with all synchros, first gear, and other wear items replaced. It is NOT limited slip.
The interior was completely redone and brown leather was used instead of the leatherette. Pepita inserts on the front sport seats. While the seats are not original to the car, they are original Porsche Recaro sport seats. The gauges were sent to Palo Alto and restored to original. A Blaupunkt radio that is fully functional along with a new speaker is in the dash. Seatbelts front and rear are new.
The Fuchs are not original to the car but are the correct type, not date coded. It also has a reproduction tool kit. The fuel tank is also new as the original was badly rusted. Careful effort on the restoration to mimic factory paint techniques and the quality of the gaps was used. But most of all, it drives very nicely.
The 2.4 liter S powerplant runs like it should. Producing its peak power when passing 4,000 rpm. No hiccups or issues in the motor and it is quite dry. The 915 gearbox is precise and works with no issues. The restored aluminum S calibers provide great stopping power for such a light car. All suspension components are new and of the highest quality. Absolutely no issues, this early S is ready to enjoy.
Priced at $170,000 or reasonable offers.
Personal inspections and PPI’s are encouraged.
