A mid 80's 911 tribute from a 1965 Porsche 912 NEW 3.0 V6 w/ 5 Spd manual

Description for Porsche 911 1965

1965 Porsche 912 coupe

Converted to a mid 80's 930 slant nose

This Porsche is not recognizable as the 912 Coupe that left the factory in Stuttgart Germany in 1965 as VIN 450619. In anthracite lacquer. During its long lifetime prior to my ownership it underwent considerable modification. The body has received a wide body whale tail conversion to the rear and the front end replaced with the steel slant nose from the 1980's. About the same time the original 1.7 drive train was replaced with a 1977 2.7 liter carbureted six-cylinder engine and a 5 speed 901 transmission, 1989 suspension, and the entire wiring replaced.

Other mods included doors from a 1986 coupe with power windows and mirrors, new rubber coated floor pans, new tan interior from a 1986 Targa (seats, carpets, door panels and headliner),

pop-out rear side windows, new trunk carpet, undercoated, solid rocker panels, new horn, fog lamps, Bilstein shocks, Momo steering wheel, ET rear window brake light and 911 gauges.

Since I purchased the car I have replaced the gold wheels with Porsche wheels and new tires and

it has received a totally remanufactured Porsche 3.0 engine with electronic fuel injection from Planet 9 Eleven in Edmond. (a top quality Porsche facility) This includes All new main bearing set, rod bearing set, timing guides, timing chains, intermediate shaft bearings, cylinder head studs, all 6 cylinder heads have had a complete valve job, new exhaust valve guides, heads resurfaced, pistons and cylinders cleaned and inspected and checked for proper spec and ring land condition, all piston rings replaced, Case cleaned and inspected for proper tolerances, crank polished, rods rebuilt, complete assembly balanced, complete new crank case gasket set, complete new cylinder head gasket set, updated turbo valve covers, and Carrera chain tensioner update.

The intake and injection system were completely rebuilt, all new injectors, distributor re-bushed, new seal kit for the fuel distributor head and warm up regulator, thoroughly cleaned and flushed all the fuel lines. replaced the intake gaskets, cleaned and painted the sheet metal for the engine shroud, installed new exhaust system, bead blasted and painted the fan and alternator housing, new clutch and fly wheel and installed new CDI ignition box.

While it was at the paint shop for a complete respray in the original anthracite factory color it was substantially dismantled. (Fenders, hood, trunk, glass, all chrome, mirrors, bumpers etc.) Fully stripped, prepped, color coat and six coats of clear and professionally buffed out.

I reserve the right to close the auction at any time as the car is advertised for sale locally.

While I don't have a "buy it now" price I will consider closing the auction early for a acceptable offer.
