Description

1968 Porsche 911 2.0 SWB No reserve Swedish registration Chassis n° 11825411 - Rare "short chassis" version - Beautiful restoration with mechanical improvements - Superb presentation in its original "Blutorange" paintwork - No reserve This car was already painted in this beautiful "Blutorange" color (code 6809B) when it was delivered new in Italy, as attested by its Porsche manufacturing sheet. In the 2000s, it was owned by a Dutch enthusiast before being sold in Germany in 2006. There, it was restored by Neuwied-based tuner Irmgartz Motorsport, who made a number of modifications designed to enhance driving pleasure, including a shorter axle ratio, a more powerful engine than the original, and firmer Koni shock absorbers. In 2016, it was sold by the well-known specialist Stentenbach Classics to Staffan Wittmark, its current Swedish owner, who is fond of the "Blutorange" for pre-1970 911s. This car, which corresponds to the last year of the 911 "short chassis", seems to have been driven very little since its refurbishment. The bodywork looks great on its four 15" Fuchs rims, and the front compartment features its own tool kit, a more modern ATS spare rim and a battery switch. The engine compartment is beautifully presented, with two triple-barrel Weber carburetors feeding the air-cooled 6-cylinder flathead. The interior has been completely redone, with leatherette seats and houndstooth "Pepita" fabric, new carpets and a black headliner. Beautifully crafted, this handsome coupe has all the appeal of the very first 911s, in a slightly modified configuration for even more exhilarating driving sensations. Swedish title Chassis no. 11825411 - Rare short-wheelbase version - Well restored, with mechanical improvements - Superbly presented in its original colour of 'Blutorange' - No reserve This car was already finished in the lovely shade of 'Blutorange' (code 6809B) when it was supplied new in Italy, as its build card from Porsche shows. In the 2000s, it was owned by a Dutch enthusiast before being sold in Germany in 2006. There, the car was restored by the tuning firm Irmgartz Motorsport, in Neuwied, who made various improvements to make it more enjoyable to drive, including a shorter final drive ratio, an uprated engine and firmer Koni shock absorbers. In 2016, it was sold by the well-known specialist Stentenbach Classics to Staffan Wittmark, its current Swedish owner, who has a liking for the 'Blutorange' colour on pre-1970 911s. This car, from the final year of 911 short-wheelbase production, appears to have been little used since it was restored. Sitting on 15-inch Fuchs alloys all-round, the bodywork is very handsome, and the front compartment is home to the tool kit, a more modern ATS spare wheel and a battery cut-out switch. Inside the attractively presented engine compartment, the twin triple-barrel Weber carburettors which feed the air-cooled flat-six can be seen. The interior has been completely restored, with seats in leatherette and houndstooth cloth, new carpets and a black headlining. Well presented, this good-looking coupé offers the appeal of the very first 911s, with a slightly modified specification to make it all the more exhilarating to drive.
