Auction Description:
This first year 911S was completed on June 9th, 1967. A well-optioned example, the high-performance 'S' was fitted from new with a set of optional halogen fog lights, a Blaupunkt 'New York' radio, a loudspeaker, an antenna, and Dunlop 165/15 tires and was trimmed in Polo Red over black leatherette. Its first owner kept the car for nearly two decades before selling it to the second owner in 1986. Upon acquiring the car, its second owner spent a few summers driving and enjoying the 911 with his wife, but the birth of twins in 1989 relegated the 911 to a heated garage. When opportunities to take the car out arose, the desire to have the Porsche serviced held things up, exacerbated by the fact that the closest Porsche specialist was 100 miles away – alas, the sporting 911S spent the next two-plus decades off the road.

Showing fewer than 73,600 original miles, most recently the 911S's matching numbers two-liter flat six has been brought back to life and cleaned. Changed from red to white during the first owner's tenure and fitted with A-Programme 5.5" steel wheels in place of the original, skinny 4.5" Fuchs five spoke alloys, this short wheelbase 911 is ready for a thorough refurbishment and then driven 'as-is', or could lend itself to a full restoration should its next owner desire to embark down that path.

These early 911's are highly sought after these days, especially the top of the line, high-performance S model. Here is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a genuine, matching numbers 911S from the first year of series production for this hallowed model.

Cool! Then you know both the car before and after your own. 083S is in Venezuela :-)

'. . . 1967 Porsche 911S $225,000

One of my favorite cars! I bought this one two years ago had it done for myself. It’s mostly correct, with a couple of very small modifications to suit my taste and improve the drive quality.

This is a very early 911S, built in August of 1966. The serial numbers for the regular 911 and the 911S were consecutive and only the “S” at the end differentiates the two. That makes this the 597th 911 built for the 67 model year. So it would be a SUPER early S, probably within the first 250 ever built.

It was restored in the 80s and then kept in Virginia by the same owner up until I bought it two years ago. When done in the 80s, it was done well, but when we got it, we took it to another level. I had my paint guru give it a spectacular, like factory new, paint job and had my Porsche engine guru service it and tune it to perfection. This was a long term project, which we did slowly and methodically over an 18 month period. I was building this car for myself, not for resale.

You’ll see a basic list of what was done below. I’ve had early 911s from a 65 911 to 73 2.7RSs and I really wanted a super cool early S that I could drive. I’ve only had the oppostunity to put maybe 100 miles on it since it was completed and i’ve come to realize that I have too many cars and it’s time to make some tough choices and let some go. This might be the toughest one to put on the market, because it just brings such a big smile to my face everytime I get behind the wheel.

Early Short Wheel Base 911s have to be at the top of anyones “Greatest Cars of All Time” list. This one really deserves someone who wants to drive the pants off of it every weekend.
