Vehicle Description
This beautifully restored 1971 Porsche 911T was completed in
October 1970 and finished with Silver Metallic Paint and a Black
Leatherette interior. Additional specifications include US
Equipment, "Koni" Shock Absorbers, Comfort Equipment, Tinted Glass
All Around, Light Metal Wheels - 5.5J x 14 and 185 HR 14 tires. It
was sold when new in the Seattle, Washington area and remained
there until 2014 when it was bought by an airline pilot from
California. At the time of purchase, the car was complete, intact
and very straight, but in need of restoration as it had been off
the road the late 1990s. Once in California, the car was put into
an airplane hangar in Corona where it sat for another few years
until the restoration began. Over the next three years, the body
was painted the original color, Silver Metallic, the matching
numbers engine, transmission, and carburetors were rebuilt, the
interior was expertly trimmed while the gauges restored and the
wheels were refinished. In short, every item on the car was
inspected, restored or replaced as needed and everything done under
the watchful eye of the airline pilot/owner. I can only imagine how
he annoyed the vendors with his precision, but the final result is
an outstanding 911 that couldn't be duplicated for the asking
price. Once completed, a few hundred miles of sorting and tuning
were added to the odometer (which was reset during
restoration).
