Sergeant Gene T. Nelson (United States Air Force) purchased this
911S from Domenic Silvestro in Avellino, Italy, and imported it to
Chandler, Arizona. Nelson owned the 911S until 2005, and it had
several Southern California owners before being purchased by Mr.
Thomas, who owned it from 2016 to 2022. Penta Motorsports in Canoga
Park, California, began the restoration in 2016, and McCoppin
Automotive Design in Newbury Park, California, completed it between
2018 and 2020, including paint, brightwork, interior, motor,
transmission, brakes, and suspension. Over $210,000 was spent. In
June of 2024, TLG Auto in North Hollywood, California, performed a
comprehensive mechanical service, including installing a new clutch
kit and flywheel and replacing the rear main seal. The engine was
disassembled down to the long block and reassembled with a new oil
cooler, fan shroud, valve covers, MFI linkage, fan hub, fan pulley,
and a complete valve adjustment, $65,438 was spent. Recently, the
911S was sold to European Collectibles in late 2025. European
Collectibles: In-house 911 service technician dropped the engine
and transmission to replace the rear main seal. The MFI pump was
rebuilt, all the throttle linkage was set up, the shifter bushings
were replaced, the shift coupler was adjusted, the engine was
tuned, and the MFI was adjusted.

with mechanical fuel injection (MFI), producing 190 hp at 6,500
rpm, paired with the matching manual 5-speed transmission (Type
915) and a four-wheel disc braking system. Complete with a
Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche, a coffee table

stunning original color combination.
