Reportedly rust-free, unrestored, completely history, seems very nice from the photos. Only 139.950 euro... too good to be true? Or has the market really gone down? This seems like the ultimate Targa. Only strange thing is that it has a glass rear window, not sure if you could even order that in 1967.

[210bhp]

It looks like a 68Year to me.

yup according to the site: Production Date is 9-11-1967 so no matter what date standard you use (mm/dd/yy or dd/mm/yy) it's a MY 1968

You're right... 11/1967. Wrong dials for '67.

Condition
Bodywork and paintwork
This 911 has never been restored. Because he has driven a great part of his existence in dry San Diego, the bodywork has been beautifully preserved.
No rust, no traces of major accidents. Very nice fits.
The car was once painted in original color. This was done about 40 years ago. A considerable amount of patina and traces of use also show this.

Interior
The interior is almost completely original, after more than 50 years! Only the proposal seats are once again covered and filled. Dashboard, door trays, etc. are all still original and this is all in an amazingly neat condition. The steering wheel, as it should be with an S, is also covered with the original leather.

Technical
The matching numbers 2.0 engine runs very nicely, picks up well, does not smoke and has a healthy oil pressure.
Nothing changed. Original ignition, carburetors, etc. The only thing added later are hydraulic chain tensioners. This for the preservation of the engine.
The dogleg tray 5 (matching numbers) switches perfect. No noise. The clutch is light and functioning properly.

This 911 is supplied with:
Maintenance
New MOT
Birth Certificate - Kardex
3 binders full of photos, bills, history etc.

Unique piece!

Elephant skin on the dash for '68 also.
