Vehicle Description

To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION at RM Sothebys' Essen event, 11 - 12 April 2019. Estimate: €140.000 - €190.000 Outstanding example of an early 911 Single ownership for nearly three decades Retains its original engine Exceptional original car Featured in several automotive magazines Widely recognized as one of the most iconic sports cars in the history of the automobile, the Porsche 911 debuted in September 1963 at the Frankfurt Auto Show. First called the 901, the new model was renamed the 911 when Peugeot claimed the worldwide trademark rights to all three-digit car model designations with a '0' as the middle number. Advanced in comparison to the Volkswagen-derived Porsche 356 engine, the newly designed Porsche 901/911 power unit was a two-litre, air-cooled flat-six that produced 130 bhp. Acceleration from 0-100 km/h was a brisk 8.3 seconds. Immediately after the first Porsche 911 went on sale in September 1964, the 911 established itself as an icon of the decade. Seven generations later, the German sports car can still be found atop almost any 'favourite sports car' list. This early 911 was built in 1965 for the 1966 model year. The current owner acquired the car in 1991, treating it to a sympathetic restoration in 1994. Restoration work performed included a high-quality paint refinishing and mechanical refurbishing. The engine was rebuilt and balanced by a marque specialist, and the car fitted with new exhaust, heat exchanger and Koni shock absorbers. The Solex 40 PL carburettor and original Bendix fuel pump were also rebuilt. Inside, this Porsche retains its original red leatherette seats, rubber floor mats and original and highly desirable Blaupunkt K�ln radio with Hirschmann antenna, reflecting the low-mileage and superb originality this Porsche possesses. Featured in several automotive magazines (Flat 6, Retro Course in France, and RS in Italy), and Best of Show in 2013 at Monza, this Porsche 911 has received many accolades form the automotive press and enthusiasts alike, all in agreement that this is an exceptional car in many ways. • Ausgezeichneter fr�her 911 mit nur 35.000 km Laufleistung seit Auslieferung • Fast drei Jahrzehnte in einer Hand • Mit Originalmotor • Au�ergew�hnlich originales Fahrzeug • In vielen Fachmagazinen portraitiert Der Porsche 911 gilt als einer der legend�rsten Sportwagen in der Automobilgeschichte. Als das Coup� im September 1963 auf der Frankfurter IAA vorgestellt wurde, hie� es noch 901. Wenig sp�ter musste die Bezeichnung durch 911 ersetzt werden, da Peugeot seine Warenzeichenrechte auf eine Benennung mit dreistelligen Zahlen mit einer 0 in der Mitte geltend machte. Im Vergleich mit seinem Vorg�nger 356 und dessen vom VW-Motor abgewandelten Aggregat wirkte der 901/911 hochmodern: im Heck werkelte ein zwei Liter gro�er, luftgek�hlter Sechszylinderboxermotor mit 130 PS. Die Beschleunigung von 0 auf 100 km/h dauerte nur 8,3 Sekunden. Schon kurz nachdem im September 1964 der erste 911 in den Verkauf kam, wurde er zu einer Ikone seines Jahrzehnts. Sieben Generationen sp�ter findet sich dieser Sportwagen noch immer an der Spitze der �beliebtesten Sportwagen" der meisten Fans. Dieser fr�he 911 wurde 1965 als Modelljahr 1966 gebaut. Der heutige Besitzer kaufte den Wagen 1991 und lie� ihn 1994 sorgsam restaurieren. Die Arbeiten umfassten eine qualitativ hochwertige Neulackierung in original grau und �berholung der Technik. Der Motor wurde durch einen Markenfachmann neu aufgebaut und eingestellt. Hinzu kamen ein neuer Auspuff, W�rmetauscher und Sto�d�mpfer von Koni. Auch der Solex 40 PL Vergaser und die originale Bendix-Benzinpumpe wurden �berarbeitet. Heute zeigt der Tacho gerade mal eben 35.000 km an. Im Inneren verf�gt dieser Porsche noch �ber die originalen roten Kunstledersitze, Gummifu�matten und das originale und gesuchte Blaupunkt K�ln Radio mit Hirschmann-Antenne - ein Beleg f�r die niedrige Laufleistung und die ausgezeichnete Originalit�t dieses Elfers. Der in vielen Porsche-Fachmagazinen (Flat 6, Retro Course in Frankreich und RS in Italien) portraitierte 911 gewann 2013 den Titel �Best of Show" in Monza und hat �ber die Jahre viel Lob von der Fachpresse und Porsche Fans gleicherma�en erhalten. Alle waren sich dar�ber einig, dass dieser 911 ein besonders au�ergew�hnliches Exemplar ist.
