911 Normale Cars for Sale

[Arbee]

This has been for sale for over a year. The seller forgot to mention that it had a Chevy V8 and it was a butchered job when done.

If old cars could talk, what would be the horrid life of this butchered specimen . . .

Let me help the seller out with a re-write: "Hard rear window and Sportomatic, this is one of the rarest and least desirable combinations that Porsche ever built."

I have this car's Doppelganger in a '69 model with a 5 speed. $20K w/o motor and trans? Say What?
Located in Cardiff-By-The-Sea. More like Lunatic-By-The-Sea.

66 911 1.jpg

Auction Description:

- First generation of the undisputed icon of design
- Original matching-numbers drivetrain
- Single ownership until 2012
- Extensive documentation, including original sales invoice
- Fully serviced and complete with tool kit and jack

Chassis number 302596 is an excellent example of this first-generation design. It is unquestionably one of the very best examples in the world, having remained with its original owners for nearly five decades, until 2012, finished in Light Ivory over Black leather, precisely the way it was born. In fact, it was 14 September 1965 when Paul and Helen Dickey walked into Vasek Polak’s Porsche dealership in Manhattan Beach, California, and signed their names on the bottom line for their new Porsche 911.

This is the heaviest optioned short-wheelbase 911 we have ever had the pleasure of presenting with the original sales invoice to support it. Optional equipment included a Webasto heater, outside thermometer, loudspeaker, electric antenna, tinted glass, Koni shocks, Phoenix tires, leather seats, air conditioning, dual headrests, seat belts, side mirror, and the original Solex carburetors (Webers were added in 1967), as well as the original dealer-installed compressor and engine lid coil. The documentation from new and the options, which include air conditioning, are all incredible, and the condition is stunning for a virtually unrestored car. Mr. Dickey’s care for the car is unbelievably well documented. He never worked on the car himself but utilized only the most trusted of mechanics. The 911 was serviced at Polak’s shop from the day it was new until late 1974, at which point several of his most talented mechanics founded their own shop, Andial, where the car was serviced thereafter.

By 1975 Paul’s 911 had accrued 95,000 miles and the original paint was no longer up to his very particular standards. He commissioned a refinishing at the cost of almost $3,000, an enormous sum in 1975. The condition of that paint today is a true testament to its quality. As presented, the car’s extensive historical documentation is joined by a tool kit, jack, original 911 brochure, and rare original Porsche factory A/C brochure. Original parts also come with the car, which permit the new owner to return the car to original configuration as desired. We understand the car has been fully serviced recently, as well.

A car of such exceptional documentation is rare unto itself, but it is particularly unusual when it is a first-generation 911 owned by the same family until 2012. It is a car we can rightly consider iconic and, as such, a Porsche with the tremendous potential for collectable value.

This matching-numbers 1968 Porsche 911 Targa—one of just 268 produced in that model year—is a stunning presentation in the factory-correct color combination of code-6806 Irish Green with a black leatherette interior. In 1967, Porsche introduced the Targa in response to the huge customer demand for an open-air version of the highly successful 911/912. The car was cutting edge and innovative with its overhead roll bar clad with stainless-steel trim, which provided both advanced roll-over safety protection as well as a signature styling statement. This car is a heavily optioned example with a 911S oil tank, five-gauge instrumentation, chrome front and rear bumper guards, front fog lights and an electric heater. Additionally, this car features a fixed, heated and tinted rear window, a highly unusual option for model-year 1968 with the majority of Targa cars from this vintage coming standard with the soft and detachable rear window. This 911 has its original horizontally opposed 6-cylinder engine with Weber carburetion that produces 130 HP, a 5-speed manual transmission and 4-wheel disc brakes, all of which provide exemplary performance and handling—an impressive driving experience especially in the context of its 50-year age. The interior is classic early 911 with its wood dash board, period-correct wood-rimmed 4-spoke steering wheel, a Becker Europa radio, black seats with houndstooth cloth inserts and full instrumentation. This iconic Porsche 911 Targa has undergone a recent refurbishment by a noted marque expert, including a fresh respray done to a very high standard, a thorough brake service, a new set of Phoenix 165/15 radial tires, new interior using the correct colors and materials, fresh brightwork and reconditioned Fuchs forged-alloy wheels. This car comes with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, tools and owner’s manual.
