    Porsport Description:

    Just pulled from a New York garage where this Sunroof coupe was parked in the early 1970s. There is a newspaper left in the back seat dated 1971. The last registration is dated 1973. The odometer reads 15,479 miles. The interior shows little signs of wear and is truly in amazing original condition. Even the elastic on the door pockets still hold. Dash, visors, and instruments are exceptional. Glass and aluminum window trim are unscratched and as near perfect. The body is arrow straight with perfect gaps. Unfortunately the original paint did not fair as well during storage. There are no rust or rot issues apart from the visible surface rust shown. The car is completely original and untouched throughout having been stored and forgotten for nearly 5 decades. Options include a sunroof, through the grill fog lights, sway bars, leather steering wheel, and Fuchs wheels. The car sits on the original tires! This Porsche presents a unique opportunity to clean, recommission and enjoy with the original patina or sympathetically restore the appearance to match the miles. I purchased this great Eleven from the original owner's estate. As such there is no original paperwork. Car will be sold on a bill of sale.

    I would keep the body as it is, sorting engine/trans/electricity and drive it. Very nice indeed.

    Thanks for the good words. It is a really cool car. There were two Triumph motorcycles as well from the same year also time warped. Strange story how they were hidden away. Anyway I am negotiable on price so if anyone has an interest please give me a ring. Thank you.

    If one of them is a Tiger Cub... I'm a buyer.

    That was my first "real" motorcycle as a kid.

    They are two identical 1968 Triumph Tiger Daytonas with 3,000 original miles stored as long as the 911. They will be sold as a pair only. I will have them on the market shortly. Thanks.
