1973 Porsche 2.4L 911T MFI Targa - Light Ivory 1.jpg
Auction Description:
*Extremely well preserved, highly original, low mileage example
*Finished in the striking factory livery of Light Ivory over Black
*Matching numbers example with less than 23,000 original miles
*Last year of the long hood, small bumper 911
*Includes original books, tools, documents and Porsche certificate
This particular 911T Targa was manufactured in Germany in November of 1972. Being an early 1973 model, it is fitted with the Bosch mechanical fuel injection and a 5-speed manual. Today the car is still in highly original mechanical condition, retaining its original matching numbers engine. Porsche only built 1,302 911T in 1973. This was also the last year of the long nose 911.
The first owner of this Targa was Dr. Robert Baller, who ordered the car in October of 1972. He parked his 911T in his garage in the mid-seventies with only 20,000 miles on the clock due to his growing car collection and other projects taking up his schedule. What was supposed to be short-term storage turned out to be a long-term affair, and the car was preserved underneath a car cover in his garage for many years. Dr. Baller states that in his ownership, the car never received any paintwork and it remained all original as-built by Porsche, as was the untouched interior and targa top. Dr. Baller kept the car for 45 years before selling it to its second owner in 2018.
Prior to selling the car, Dr. Baller did restore the fuel tank and the injection parts of the engine. A few miles were added during that recommissioning before the cars was stored again and further sold to its next owner. According to the Porsche Production Specifications certificate included with the car, this 911T Targa was finished in Light Ivory paint with a Black Leatherette interior. The car was delivered new with US specifications along with a Blaupunkt radio, comfort equipment and light metal wheels shod with Pirelli tires at that time. The car was formally delivered to Dr. Baller on February 15, 1973 at Gardner Porsche in Peoria Heights, Illinois.
After Dr. Baller's 45 years of ownership, the car traded hands a few times before being acquired by the seller in 2020. The vehicle today is still in largely original condition with only some light interior work being performed around 2019. This Porsche has received a service during its current ownership ensuring the vehicle is ready to be shown and driven. Having covered less than 23,000 original miles since new, this may be one of the best preserved, most original 911T Targa's available.
The records for this particular 911T are also extensive and included in the sale are books and tools. The car has been in the care of the consignor, a Porsche collector, for the past few years and has been kept road ready. Also accompanying the car will include the Porsche Product Specifications certificate, invoices, letter from the original owner, paint depth readings, previous ownership records, original mirror hang tag, brochures, spare keys as well as the original owner's manual and maintenance booklet.
Anyone who has spent some seat time in a 1973 911 will tell you that they are extremely enjoyable to drive. They provide a great sense of mechanical connection and have plenty of performance even for driving today. It is a great car for road rallies, PCA events, or Sunday drives, and great addition to any collection.
