1966 Porsche 912 Sunroof Coupe (Restored)
VIN# 351394
Engine# *831855*
Mileage: 98,566
Collector owned, high-quality restoration, very fine example.
Engine & Transmission: The 1.6-liter flat-four engine runs strong and is very nice. It delivers power whenever you want it. The car has a 5-speed manual transmission and shifts very smoothly. The underside of the car is clean. All mechanicals have been refurbished or replaced during the restoration. There are receipt’s in the (detailed photo link) to show the commitment to this car.
Body: Finished in Irish Green with electric sunroof. The body panels are all straight. All glass is in great shape. The paint is extremely nice even up close. I am pretty particular when it comes to condition and after close examination I would rate this a “9”. I could only find one small blemishes in the paint on top of the driver door opening on the body and microscopic rock chips on the front of hood (see video/detailed photos). The rubber is new and there are two places where the fit and finish needs adjustment, back window and bottom of driver door (see detailed photos). Gaps are great, lenses are clear and chrome is great. 2017 date code on tires. The car has never been hit and is kept in a heated/carpeted garage.
Interior: The black leatherette interior is new. All doors are excellent. The dash and instruments work as they should. Five dial dash, new carpet floor mat and period correct radio. Exceptional workmanship, see detailed photos and video.
Summary: The collector of this car is keen on keeping his cars mechanically solid for use. This is a wonderful example of a classic 912. It is in exceptional condition and perfect for cruising and taking to car shows. The collector enjoys the process of a restoration, a true labor of love and passion with attention to detail. In my opinion it is advantageous to have someone take on a project of this magnitude so the buyer reaps the benefit of a finished car. A joy to own and drive.
Oregon collector plates are not part of the sale.
