1973 Porsche 911T Coupe s/n 9113100168, engine no. *6130324* Tangerine with Black Interior Early 911s embody a combination that is rare among collector cars today. They have unparalleled drivability and usability, especially when compared with other cars of the same vintage, but are also wholly evocative of a different era. There is a certain wholeness, cohesiveness, agility, and communicativeness that is only evident when they are driven, and it is no surprise that they have a fanatical following. For many years, however, they were just used cars, which makes finding genuinely solid examples which have been continuously cared throughout the cars life difficult today. All early 911s have appreciated tremendously in recent years and the late cars (1972 and 1973), which are fitted with 2.4 liter engines, are the ultimate development of the long hood 911. Early 1973 911Ts sold in the United States featured the MFI (mechanical fuel injection) system of the early cars, while late ones such as this employed the CIS (continuous injection system) that was shared with 1974 onward cars including the 911SC. This particular example has been converted to a Weber carbureted induction system, eliminating any of the could-be problems relating to the injection. According to the present owner, this matching number, original tangerine with black interior 911T was sold new in California, with US market equipment. Other optional equipment included front and rear stabilizer bars, a manual antenna, loud speaker, and noise suppression, the comfort kit, tinted windows, 6x15 wheels shod with Dunlop tires. Restored and rebuilt without regard to expense, this matching numbers car is immaculate above and below, having always been a straight and solid dry climate car. Paintwork was performed from bare metal up on undamaged panels, according to the owner. The interior has been restored using correct materials. Included with the car is the Certificate of Authenticity confirming this as a matching numbers, original tangerine colored car when new. Pricing is firm. More information to follow in the coming days. |
