Auction Description:

From its original purchase on May 22, 1972 until late in 2013, this very original “long nose” 911S was a one-owner car hailing from Austin, Texas. It is a very correct, very original, and unadulterated example with impeccable and very complete records from new. As thoroughly documented, this car was originally purchased by Bradley Martin from Bob Miller Porsche in Austin and it was lovingly maintained over the years by that same enthusiast-owner until it was purchased by a dealer/broker late in 2013. It is very rare that an early 911S Porsche remains in such original and unmolested condition. Originally supplied with sport seats, A/C and no sunroof, it has seen limited use over the last 15 years and this beauty retains the majority of its original Silver paint. While it has the usual minor scratches and dings of a mostly original paint car it still has a great shine and a truly beautiful patina that only a lovingly maintained car can display. Similarly, the black leather sport-seat interior remains in excellent original condition and only the carpet has been replaced. Mechanically, this is an all-numbers matching car and retains it originality throughout and offers the performance and dynamics that only a first-generation 911S can deliver.

The dash is in exceptional original condition, often an issue with the early 911’s. This truly iconic car comes with the correct and original, FUCHS wheels that also reflect the overall external patina you would expect of such an exceptional original car. The original numbers matching engine went through a very extensive rebuild within the last 16,000 miles and while being rebuilt was upgraded to 2.7 liter RS specs including a rare RS spec Bosch MFI pump. This long hood 911S is amazingly fast and dynamic to drive and comes with the Porsche COA, very through and complete records, books, manuals and tools. This is an extremely original car for the discriminating buyer. They are only original once, and this is a unique opportunity to own one of the most iconic sports cars ever produced.

Auction Description:

*Delivered new to 1931 Mille Miglia-winner Wilhelm Sebastian
*Presented in the as-delivered Irish Green over Brown Pepita livery
*Eligible for many great driving events such as the Copperstate 1000
*Desirable first production year 911S
*Offered with Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and copy of Kardex

This first-year 911S was completed on September 29th, 1966, in the models second production month, and finally left the Zuffenhausen-based Porsche factory on October 3rd that same year. The high-performance 'S' was fitted with loudspeaker and antenna, shod on Dunlop 165/15 tires and was trimmed in '6606' Irish Green over a smart, brown Leatherette interior, with Pepita cloth inserts. All these facts are documented by the cars Porsche-issued Certificate of Authenticity, as well as on a copy of the original factory Kardex document, both of which are accompanying the sale of the car.

The new Irish Green 911S was built for its home-market, where the Mannheim-based Islinger Porsche agency delivered it to the first owner, ex racing driver, Mr. Wilhelm Sebastian of Weinheim, Germany. Sebastian had made a name for himself when he co-drove a Mercedes-Benz SSKL with Rudolf Caracciola to win the 1931 Mille Miglia road race. He was a factory Grand Prix driver for Auto Union in 1934, and later a mechanic for Tazio Nuvolari.

How long the Irish Green 911S remained Mr. Sebastian remains unknown, but the cars Kardex reflect that Islinger Porsche serviced the car up until November 1967. The Porsche eventually made its way to the US, where it is believed to have resided in California with one owner for a bout 25 years, before being purchased by the consignor, an Oklahoma based Porsche enthusiast. At some point, a sunroof was installed, this is not believed to have been in the car from new. The Porsche has received cosmetic and mechanical attention in recent years, and presents beautifully throughout, finished in the as-delivered Irish Green over a brown Leatherette interior with Pepita cloth inserts.

These early 911's are highly sought after these days, especially the top of the line, high-performance S model. Here is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a wonderful 911S from the first year of series production for this hallowed model.

I've seen this at:

http://www.orlandoclassiccars.com/sh....php?v_id=1461

It's listed as going up for sale at the Mercum Austion LOT F83 (83rd car in sale on Friday Jan 24th).

http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_de...3&entryRow=334

The lack of information concerns me and the mistakes: It's listed as a 1971 but the description calls it a 1969?

I'd look this one over in person, very very carefully imo.

Dealer's (long winded) Description:

- Original Colors & Numbers Matching
- Offered With Porsche COA
- Restoration Completed in 2004

The example on offer here, Chassis # 9110301644, according to its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, was produced on August 1st, 1970 as a Silver Metallic (8080) over Black Leatherette example. The options recorded were US Equipment, Comfort Package, Blaupunkt Radio “Frankfurt”, and Tinted Glass. The engine number on the COA, 6302248, is also the same number stamped on the engine and the car is indeed a numbers matching example. Unfortunately, exact early history is not known on this specific 911. We do know that by 2004 the car received a comprehensive nut and bolt restoration by a marque expert as evident by the quality and extent of the restoration. While no documentation is present, it is obvious through inspection that all of the little nuances that make a restoration great on one of these cars are present. Everything from the correct undercoating color, cadmium plated hardware and many little items that add up to exactness, exactness that only a professional could understand and portray in his craftsmanship. No receipts are present, no history, but anyone who knows 911's will understand that this was indeed an expert restoration. By 2006 the car was traded to Motor Classic and Competition Corp. in CT where it stayed a short time before finding a new home with a long time collector in California. The car was under his care until late 2014. There, it was commonly stored and cared for by the experts at Fast Cars Ltd along with TLG Porsche of N. Hollywood, CA. A few service receipts are present for regular service during this 10-year ownership. One of which is a $4,100 receipt for a reseal and fuel injection rebuild that took place in April of 2014 bringing the car totally up to date. In total, since the restoration, there has been apx. 2,000 miles of use and enjoyment but not without being well kept.

Today, the car shows well and the restoration has held up nicely with few blemishes noted. Cosmetically, the car shows very well, it is straight down the sides with excellent panel fitment, the hood and doors fit exactly as they should with excellent gaps. The paint is smooth with a deep luster and matches everywhere never having been spotted or touched up since the restoration; very consistent and presenting nicely. The two areas that we have noted flaws are on the hood near the 90 degree edge of the inverted cowl that is present approaching the windscreen, a few cracks are present on either side. Towards the rear of the passenger side drip rail there is also a crack. However, we have seen cracks in this area before on 911's as this is a common flex-point for these cars when driven hard. Neither blemish, in our opinion, warrant refinishing as a car that is hopefully going to be driven anyway. The glass is all in excellent condition, though the windshield is brand new. The rubbers throughout are also newer and in excellent condition. The chrome is excellent, but perhaps not perfect, and the same can be said for the anodized trim. The wheels are nicely restored deep-six Fuchs, wrapped in correct set of new Michelin XWX's. One other nice feature apparent on the exterior is the correct accessory fog lamps. Overall a very nice looking car with no real needs and easily ready for showing or rallies.

Upon entering the interior it is apparent that the quality of work is continued from the exterior. The restoration is very well completed on the inside of the car with nothing skipped. However, upon close inspection it appears the interior is indeed part original part restored as needed. However, all of it is excellent and show worthy. The carpet is the correct type and fitting well to the interior panels, very tight. The seats are nicely finished as are the seat mechanics and rails, again everything was tended to. The dash is excellent with the exception of a rippled area above the key area. The rear seats appear to be perfectly refinished or perhaps mint originals as is the rear deck. The headliner is excellent as are the door cards and overall there is nothing about the interior that stands out as an issue or in need of any sort of attention. The steering wheel is the correct and original one, and in excellent condition as well. Everything appears to be in correct working order. The gauges read properly with the mileage showing just under 75,000. The radio works, as does the exterior lighting, windshield wipers, gauge lighting etc… the only item that did not appear to work is the fog lights and interior lights on the ceiling of the car. In total, it is an interior that needs no attention to be enjoyed, nicely presented, highly correct, and without any real faults; easily ready to be shown.

As with the rest of the car, the engine bay is very clean, detailed, and highly correct in appearance. It has a freshly serviced look overall. There is an area towards the left side of the engine bay quarter panel that seems to have had prior repair due to a tap in the rear. The engine number is the correct 911/02 Type with engine number 6302248 clearly in place. One item to note throughout not only the engine bay but the rest of the car is the cadmium plated hardware present; a hint to the care and correctness that was placed on the restoration. The front trunk is of the same quality with many factory spot welds present and appearing largely original and untouched per the factory brushed glue for the carpeting that is still present along with the black sealant around the shock towers; both hallmarks of originality for a 911. It is evident through inspection and our opinion that the front pan appears original and the structure is sound with no hint of any previous work of any kind. The underside is consistent with this statement as well showing to be the original pan and straight rockers with a plethora of original spot-welds throughout. Additionally, the undercoating is the ultra-correct grey colored undercoat. Porsche changed undercoating techniques almost yearly and for 1970 this would be the correct variation and color. Overall the underside can be described as solid, straight, and original with no signs of rust repair anywhere. Much of the hardware is, again, cadmium plated to the correct color and the suspension components appear very clean and recently tended to. The engine is also very dry compared to most, as these cars even when perfect or newly rebuilt, can still be leaky.

As a driver's car, the 911 must also perform; turning the key will do just that. It starts easily but does not always like to idle perfectly when cold. Once the car has some temperature in it, it does idle perfectly fine however. Power is abundant and it pulls nicely through the rev range with no issues noted. Every aspect of its mechanical ability feels dialed in and ready for long term use as a reliable sports car that could be used and enjoyed without hesitation. The brakes are quick to stop the car without pulling. The clutch operation is smooth and the steering/handling works without fault; overall a very in tune example that will not disappoint. We have driven the car about 40 miles or so to test it and have no complaints. It is a great example and everything a 911S is supposed to be.

While the car may be lacking early history (which is still being researched) it is evident through inspection that it is indeed a good example that has never strayed far from its current condition. Now nicely restored, numbers-matching and finished in its original colors, it is easily an example worth cherishing, but more importantly driving. The time to invest in a quality Porsche has never been better. There is no doubt that this is an opportunity for the serious collector looking to acquire a great 911S. Complete with Jack, spare, some documentation, manual and Porsche COA, this 911 is available immediately.

Auction Description:

- One of only 442 A-Series 911 S Targas for 1968
- Matching numbers; desirable color combination
- Recently completed restoration by marque specialists
- Porsche Certificate of Authenticity

The European-delivery example was completed May 15, 1968, and finished in attractive Blutorang (Tangerine) with a black removable fabric top panel and black leatherette interior, set off with a brushed stainless steel roll-over hoop and gold-plated trim. The only factory option noted on its Certificate of Authenticity was a set of Dunlop 165-15 SP radial tires.

The Porsche eventually came into the ownership of the consignor, who commissioned an exacting bare-metal restoration, which would involve a veritable who’s who of Porsche experts and generate some $90,000 in receipts. The car was entrusted to Scott Klepinger Classic Cars in Elkhart, Indiana, where it was stripped to a bare shell. Every detachable component was rebuilt, repainted, re-plated, or replaced with OEM or correct replacement parts under the supervision of marque specialist James Schrager. The car was repainted its original color, and the interior was replaced with new seats, door cards, dashboard trim, and carpeting. There is a new windshield, new engine grille, and new Targa roof and zip-out rear window.

The two-liter Type 901/7 engine and Type 901 five-speed transmission were completely rebuilt by Marty Hostetler of Bristol, Indiana. The carburetors and distributor were rebuilt by PartsKlassik. A new flywheel, clutch, and starter were installed, along with a new wiring harness and electronic ignition. The brakes were overhauled with a new master cylinder, rotors, and stainless lines. Additionally, the suspension was rebuilt with new Koni struts and shocks, and new Michelin tires were mounted on 5.5-inch Fuchs alloy wheels.

Supplied with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, correct tool kit, jack, spare, and owner’s manuals, this beautifully restored 911 S Targa has it all—timeless design and brilliant performance. It is ready to provide its next owner with many miles of driving pleasure, as well as success on the concours field.

Less than a year later, and the ask is $235,000. Did F40 buy it at auction?

This car was an early example of "optimistic" estimates.

Should anyone run across it know that an Elcometer gave up it's secrets.

Auction Description:

*Original, right-hand drive UK car
*Matching chassis, engine and gearbox numbers
*Extensively restored
*Formerly in the Carlos Monteverde collection

This early, short-wheelbase 911S is a rare, right-hand drive, UK-supplied car that has seen only limited use since undergoing restoration, in the course of which it was stripped down to a bare shell and completely rebuilt (see photographs and bills on file). More recently the car has been serviced by marque specialist Andy Prill and RPM, and their related bills are on file also.

The accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms that both the engine and gearbox numbers match the chassis number, and states that this car is one of approximately 30 right-hand drive models built for the UK market. Its original colour was Tangerine (the HPI report shows that the colour change to red occurred during the early 1980s). The current owner had an early 911-type wood-rim steering wheel and Recaro sports seats (as per the 2.7 RS Touring) fitted in 2011 when he purchased the car from Carlos Monteverde's famous collection. The original steering wheel and seats are included in the sale.

The vendor has used the Porsche for longer journeys from Hertfordshire to his house in Devon, and on all occasions it has performed faultlessly, covering circa 4,200 miles in the last few years. Presented in close to show condition, this wonderful Porsche 911S comes with a V5C registration document, current MoT and a comprehensive file of history dating back 20 years, which includes the aforementioned restoration and service records.
