Vehicle Description
The Porsche 911 is perhaps one of the automotive histories
longest-running models. As a result, it is also a car that is
continually being re-engineered, redeveloped, and improved upon
generation after generation, all while keeping the classic lines
and experience of the famed 911 intact. The first production model
was introduced in 1964/65, but it was evident that by 1968 a change
was necessary. The plan was to offer a range of models within the
911 line-up. The result by 1969 was 3 different 911's to choose
from, the T, E, and S variants of which all could be tailored for
the ordering customer with a variety of interesting options. The T
was the base model which by 1970 still had carburation; the E and S
variants were both fuel-injected and offered additional power and a
top speed over the T. The S however was the pinnacle of power for
production 911 models in 1970. It offered the type 911/02 motor
which produced 178HP and higher top speed than any before it. This
was Porsche entering into its prime and these "long-hood" 911's
would go down in history as the most coveted and a true
representation of what a 911 should be.
The example on offer, Chassis # 9110300418 offers a genuine lineage
of ownership and an inviting condition. Comparing the car to the
accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, we can see that
it sports its original colors. It even has some unique options such
as a 110 Liter Fuel Tank, raised front seat by 20MM and a raised
steering wheel hub. Most importantly though, this "S" retains its
original engine, number 6300402. Beyond the excellent presentation,
there is something just as important that one doesn't always have
the opportunity to acquire when purchasing a collector car, to any
degree. That something is history. In this particular 911's case,
extremely well-documented history, on paper, from day one to
current with no gaps or inconsistencies. From its original sale to
its most recent oil change, the lineage of who, where, what, when
and even why can be clearly understood. A rarity but also a
treasure not to be overlooked with the following general

Racecraft, Verona, WI
Following its preparation for sale in August of 2012, the car was
acquired by the current and 5th owner. A collector in Pennsylvania
who has enjoyed the car to the tune of adding nearly 4,000 miles
since his acquisition. The car has been a participant on the "Into
The Sun Rally" and has been enjoyed regularly with service as
needed to match. Today, the car reflects that of an excellent
driver quality example. It is a straight car with nice paint,
rubber and glass, a clean and highly original interior, and
correctness shows throughout with no real deviation from its stock
specification. Mechanically, it runs strong with plenty of top-end
power and no faults noted. A good old 911S that offers usability
and collectability at the same time.
Included in the sale are the original books including the
maintenance booklet in pouch. Also included are the tools, jack,
spare, and a detailed maintenance record.
