1966 Porsche 912 Euro
Single Ownership for 40 Years, Numbers Matching, European Model, Five Gauge, Five Speed
Offered for just the second time since it was sold new in 1966, is this wonderfully original and well-cared-for Porsche 912 Euro model. It is a rare early five gauge with the desirable exterior temperature gauge and sports its original Bologna Italy mini front licenses plate. This 912 is one of the most original survivors that we have seen even retaining its original rims date coded to June of 1966. It is a two owner car with the second owner purchasing it in 2007. The Bahama Yellow paint is original with few minor scratches as is the interior which has no tears and little evidence of wear. When we received the car we decided to completely rebuild the engine since it sat for the last few years. We rebuilt the engine with new piston rings, new valve guides, new gaskets and new seals. The carburetors were rebuilt, new wires were installed, and the plugs, cap, rotor, condenser were all replaced and have it running like new. The front and rear shock absorbers were replaced, along with new bushings. The master cylinder and all four calipers were rebuilt and the system was flushed with new fluid and bled. The gear shift linkage was cleaned and installed with new bushings and now has the car shifting flawlessly. After all of our work, this 912 is mechanically sound and runs and drives like it would have out of the factory. We have documentation and the cars COA and have photographed all of the restoration work as pictures are available upon request.
