DESCRIPTION
Introduced at the 1963 Frankfurt Motor Show, the basic Porsche 911 design would run virtually unchanged for twenty nine years. Ferdinand Porsche had been working on the design since the late fifties as a better performing replacement for the 356. Today, his design still underpins the production of Porsche AG of Stuttgart. Before long, the merits of using the Porsche 911 in competitive motorsport became apparent and history records it as one of the most successful campaigners of all time. From the 24 Hours of Le Mans, to grass-root motorsport, the 911 offered reliable performance in many guises.
For 1970 the C-Series 911 was introduced with a larger bore to give a capacity of 2165cc, producing 125bhp and now badged as a "T". Alterations to suspension points improved the handling and gave the steering a better on centre feel.
Offered here is a very original example of the sought after 911 T which was first registered in 1970. This Coupe has resided in the dry climate of California for the majority of its life and was brought over to the UK last year by the current owner. The bodywork is described as: "very bright with no rust, straight shut lines and nice body panels. The engine is very sweet and it drives beautifully."
Finished in the rare colour of Bahia Red with black interior, this lovely example has a current MoT certificate and all EU taxes have been paid. Ready for registration anywhere in Europe, we welcome any inspections on this vehicle and buyers are encouraged to view this 911 in person to fully appreciate its quality. Alternatively, potential bidders are welcome to contact the office for a fair evaluation of its condition.
