    It will absolutely be driven. Needs some basic servicing at this point... It has logged less than 2000 miles over the last 20 years, primarily on and off of trailers for concours.

    I plan to bridge the gap between showable, driven patina originality and enjoying this car for what it is on the road.

    So:
    -The rear wiper switch is in fact a vertical push pull below the oil gauges (seen in pic below).
    -The Hella 169 fogs below the bumper are to the left of the vent controls in standard push pull with fog light icon on knob (can't see in below pic)
    -The above bumper driving lights are off a standard push pull with a different icon on knob, located above the volume control for the radio (seen in below pic)
    -The rear fog light works off of the same switch as the below the bumper amber 169s. Once pulled on for front fogs, a quarter turn of the pulled switch turns on the rear

    Maybe some (of the lights) were added by the original owner? Thanks.

    The rabbit hole calleth but I don't have the time at the moment!

    In short, dealer installed accessories added at delivery and thoroughly documented included Hellas below the front bumper and rear fog light, amongst other goodies. I will post it all when I have a chance.

    Looking forward to your experience as I also am re-awakening a 1969 911T Coupe that has been with the original owner until last Friday when I took possesion. I know exactly how you feel.

    Fabulous! More please.

    Does this beauty have a name from the OO? Sure seems like a 'name worthy' 911 to me.
