Thread: 911 S sport version seat covers

    911 S sport version seat covers

    I am currently restoring a 2.2S to the original sport version specification.

    Can anyone identify the seat cover material on the picture below? The photo is from a sales brochure showing the interior of the 911S sport version from 1970. Maybe suede?

    Any help appreciated!

    It's the supposed to be the litweight 70S as it was homologated. The brochure I believe is the one with the three white 911s side by side.

    I thought the seats were the same as the RSL seats though the material in the close up almost looks like a cord.

    Those look like 914 window cranks to me and maybe the earliest use of the RSL type door panels.

    This might be the show car as well judging by the exterior color. My wet dream is a barn find in that spec.

    Sport version

    yes, it is the so-called "Sportausstattung" as mentioned in the "Porsche Sporttechnischer Leitfaden" (sport technical guideline) from 1970. This version included for example:

    -gearshaft with exchangeable second gear
    -limited slip differential
    -longer wheel bolts including spacers 27mm
    -tachometer 10.000 /min
    -steering wheel 380 mm Ø
    -62 ltr. Tank with large opening underneath hood
    -lighter body without any covers, chrome trim, etc.
    -lighter interior with simpler door covers, missing covers on the glove compartment and the sport seats as discussed here.

    So, any more knowledge around about possible covers?
