Description
1965 Porsche 911 No reserve Swedish registration Chassis no. 302849 Engine no. 902972 - High-quality restoration - One of the oldest 911s - Original engine - Purchased from specialist Stentenbach - Without reserve Delivered new in Germany to Porsche Gramling of Karlsruhe in December 1965, this car was immediately exported to South Carolina in the USA, where it had two owners. As can be seen from the accompanying log sheet, it was painted "Polorot" with a black interior, and fitted with a sunroof which it no longer has. It then returned to Europe and, based in Aachen in the 90s, was used to take part in regularity rallies. More recently, given its historical importance, it underwent a high-quality restoration by Porsche specialist Classic Cars of Lollar, Germany, before being purchased by Staffan Wittmark through the well-known German specialist Stentenbach Classics. The refurbishment was obviously carried out to the highest standards, and the car is now in superb condition, with its windows well aligned and its grey paintwork well applied and reminiscent of Porsche's "Slate Grey". Staffan Wittmark considers this to be the color that goes best with the very first 911s, and there's a 1966 911 of the same color in the collection. The engine compartment is superb, with its original engine fed by two Solex triple-barrel carburetors, and the front trunk, completely rebuilt, testifies to the quality of the work. The interior, too, has been completely restored: the red leather seats and black carpets are new, and the dashboard woodwork and counters, dominated by a large central rev counter, have been refurbished. The whole looks absolutely stunning, and the 2 km on the odometer appears to be the same as that covered since the restoration. This car is one of the oldest 911s in existence, since the model went on sale at the end of 1964. With all the aesthetic and mechanical purity of this first version, still equipped with its original engine, it will speak to the heart of enthusiasts, all the more so in the impeccable presentation it enjoys.

More recently, given its historical significance, it underwent a very high quality restoration by Classic Cars, a Porsche specialist at Lollar, in Germany, before it was bought by Staffan Wittmark through the well-known German specialist Stentenbach Classics. The restoration was evidently carried out to the highest standards and the car is now in superb condition, with well aligned panels; the grey paint has been well applied and recalls Porsche's 'Slate Grey'. Wittmark considers this to be the colour which goes best with the very first 911s and his collection includes a 911 from 1966 in the same shade. The engine compartment is superb, with the original engine fed by twin triple-barrel Solex carburettors, while the completely restored front compartment attests to the quality of the work carried out. The interior has also been fully restored: the red leather seats and black carpets are new, and the wood trim to the dashboard and the instruments - dominated by the large rev counter in the middle - have been refurbished. The whole car is absolutely magnificent and the distance recorded on the odometer of just 2km appears to be that covered since its restoration. This car is one of the oldest 911s in existence, as the model only went on sale at the end of 1964. With the aura of aesthetic and mechanical purity of the first version, still equipped with its original engine, it will speak to the hearts of enthusiasts, especially as it is so immaculately presented.
