    The '67S in Montana Shed

    Hello Early Porsche 911 fans,
    My name is Steve and I am the eBay auction winner of the Slate Gray '67S Coupe that was stored in that "custom shed" in Montana for the past 26 years. I went to Montana to finalize the deal with the rancher that has owned the car for the past 30 years. He had decided stop driving the car and store it until he had the money to "fix it up". That day never came and he wanted to buy more cattle so he decided the time has come to let the car go.

    The car is complete and in quite good shape considering where it's been most it's life. Luckily the climate is dry which allowed it to survive.

    I have been involved with Porsche cars for the past 7 years but am new to early 911's and am really excited and feel very fortunate to have acquired this car.
    It is now being transported to Jeff Gamroth's new shop in Sherwood, Oregon - Rothsport Road & Race - for initial evaluation and to see what surprises are in store.

    My plan is to restore this car completely with Jeff's help on all the mechanicals. My son and I will be managing the project (and wrenching a bit) and will be asking for a lot of help from the Early 911 community and especially the great people who love these cars here at the Registry. I will be posting updates and photos during the process and I will have lot's of questions I'll be asking to make sure I get this car "right". We intend to keep this car in our family.

    I've already had some contact with members and vendors and really appreciate the encouragement they are giving me.

    I'm confident that this will turn out to be a very rewarding experience for us. I hope I don't wear out my welcome here too soon!
    Thanks to everyone in advance for your patience with me.

    You will have a great experience with Jeff and the guys at Rothsport. I worked with them this summer on a car that was bought out west.

    Best of luck.
