Definitely LWB front fenders and rear flares. Wheelbase appears to be unaltered. I think they're about $150K high on the price.

No affiliation to this one... Interesting advert- 5 doors and 4WD!? :confused: Maybe a scam at this price

Auction Description:
This highly original 1967 built (1968 registered) Porsche 911 is a left-hand drive example that was supplied new to a Mr L.C. George in sunny California. The car remained in his possession until 1977 when it was sold to a Mr Pate of Ridgecreast, California who, according to invoices in the file, owned the car until 2010. Finished in metallic blue with its original black vinyl interior and carpets, the car has never been restored and has been the subject of an older re-paint. The original handbook, service record book and Blaupunkt radio are also included in the sale of this vehicle.
One of only 473 built for the US market in 1967, the car has been UK registered and has an MoT test certificate until October 2015. These early 911s rarely come onto the market in this condition and it represents an exciting opportunity for Spring motoring in a truly iconic Porsche.

Auction Description:
This early short-wheelbase 911 is documented by Kardex as being finished in Irish Green (6606 B) with a black vinyl interior. It is recorded as having a delivery date from the factory of April 4, 1966 with a delivery date to the dealer of record, Competition in Culver City, California. The buyer is then illustrated as Aero V.W., Inc. at 1019 West Manchester Inglewood, California. The current owner of the Porsche has had the car for the past 10 years, and he recently had the 2.0-liter, 130-hp flat six-cylinder engine rebuilt by Power Tech in New Jersey, where is also received a general tune-up. Among the shown options from the factory in period were tinted glass and Webasto heater. The fact that this is a short wheelbase car with the wooden dashboard face makes the car quite desirable. Additional features include having its original interior, dual rearview mirrors, proper wheels with center caps and blackwall tires. Factory tools, receipts and assorted books also accompany the car.
Today, fine examples of early short wheelbase 911s in unusual colors are in great demand worldwide. This Porsche is suitable for rapid and enjoyable touring, and it will make a great addition to any collection of Zuffenhausen’s finest. Go ahead, drive it. You will never forget it.
Looks like a nice car and a very reasonable estimate.Quote:

"Do Your Homework Before Bidding" - April 2015 by John Draneas. This will make you sick.
Appears that houses are washing their hands utilizing NO RELIANCE PROVISIONS among other legalese. (Relying on the consigners description but not standing behind it).
What it boils down to: They'll take your money but it's up to you if you get screwed by a less-than-forthright seller/consignor.
Gooding Legalese:
INSPECTION OF VEHICLES
ALL SALES ARE “AS IS, WHERE IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS AS MORE FULLY SET FORTH IN THE GENERAL CONDITIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY CATALOGUE DESCRIPTION, AUCTION ANNOUNCEMENT, ADVERTISEMENT, STATEMENT, ASSURANCE OR PROMISE BY OR ON BEHALF OF GOODING OR ANY OF ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY VERBAL OR WRITTEN CONDITION REPORT PROVIDED BY GOODING, GOODING HAS NO OBLIGATION OR RESPONSIBILITY, AND DOES NOT ASSUME ANY OBLIGATION OR RESPONSIBILITY, TO UNDERTAKE AN INSPECTION OF ANY VEHICLE PRIOR TO THE AUCTION. BIDDERS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY AND THE RESPONSIBILITY, AND ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED, TO RESEARCH THE VEHICLES PRIOR TO THE AUCTION.

THIS NOTICE IS A PART OF THE GENERAL CONDITIONS AND IS NOT INTENDED TO LIMIT ANY OF THE OTHER TERMS OF SUCH GENERAL CONDITIONS.
In the end it's actually worse than any used car lot. There is no recourse for a turd in the punchbowl.
I'll take my chances at Cheap John's Used Car Lot.

3. Auction house
But I still find it interesting to monitoring the auction sales.
I agree with the pecking order!Quote:
