Porsche 912 (1965)
for sale
Price: US $200.00
Price: US $200.00
This is an early (pre-500th) Porsche 912, built July 1st
1965, in the Porsche factory, not outsourced to the Karmann factory as many
were. This car has the highly sought
after and quite rare painted 3 gauge dash. This car was special ordered with
the upgraded 5 speed 902/1 gear box (matching #), an original AM/FM/Short Wave
Radio, Irish Green 6406 L Paint , black seats, day light mirror, passenger sun
visor with mirror, and Passenger Schlumber Roll (missing, but has brackets).
As a European delivery car, it was first delivered to the
D'Ieteren Belgium Porsche dealership. It may have been an order, “fly and
drive” car, as it seems to have been ordered in 64. The car was shipped to PC Imports in the
US. Not much is known of the first
owner, a Mr W. Whitfield who brought it in for only one service at PC Imports
November 5th 1965. The car spent a long time with an owner in
upstate New York. Here it was exposed to
the NE winters and now has rust in floors, front suspension arm, and front pans. Fortunately, most of the panels to repair this
car are now available. 3 of the wheels are date stamped 11/64, one is 1/66 and the spare is 5/66. Have copy of the factory Kardex, and a beautiful original owner's manual, and a jack. The car does come with pair of correct 4 screw hole horn grills.
As the early first year models of most sports cars are
highly desirable, especially in the Porsche market, this car should appreciate
in value over time. The car is missing
the original engine; however, it does come with a 912 block and a set of piston
and cylinders.
