1967 S Sunroof Coupe, Silver, One Owner

[toomany911's]

Thought that you'd like to see what I bought on Monday last, it's a 1967 S Sunroof coupe in Silver Gray, has Headrests although one is missing, a Toolkit with Hirschman Ariel Keys, Original Spare Porsche Fanbelt, Messko Tire pressure guage and has had one owner from new. The guy I bought it from, his father-in-law picked it up at the factory in 67, returning it to CA in 68. I have the original wallet, service book with all of the Porsche stamps, they serviced it at the factory until it came to California, also the speedometer calibration paperwork from DMV for 68. It was taken off of the road in 73 and stored in a garage until just before Christmas, its been sitting outside the sellers house since.
As you can see the paint, which is the original factory finish has gone totally flat but polishes out quite nicely, the chrome is pretty tarnished, there's a dent in the left front fender behind the signal unit and one in the engine lid. It still wears its USA sticker from its days in Germany and has even got the original Webasto heater.
The car is like a time warp, it has never been messed with or updated, it is a black plate rust free California car, the one remaining spot lamp is a Bosch

Great find Ian. I like it faded, don't polish it? Your post is in the cars for sale section. Are you selling it? Thanks.

Ian,
That car is a great starter. Silver sunroof coupe 67 911S. Couldn't pick a better year, color and model to put your money into. I have a lowly 67 911 sunroof coupe with an S engine rebuild, and while I look around occassionally at other cars, I can't seem to find another one I like better. Drive it like it was stolen (since you have already had one stolen, you can relate to that!).

PS
Somewhere on that car you might put a picture of your Anouska so your guardian angel will always be there with you while you drive it...

By the way, the tag on the rear license plate appears to show that the car was last registered in 1974. Where the hell did you find this car? The le Brea Tar pits???

Ian,

Treasure this car for what it is - a true time warp.
You are so lucky that ,it looks like,you have everything there right in front of you.
A '67S like this is not a dime a dozen car.
Bring it back to life and share the pics with us pls!

Cheers,
Dennis.
