CLASSIC PORSCHE 911 1974 2.7

CLASSIC PORSCHE 911 1974 2. 7

SELDOM FOUND IN THIS CONDITION IN THE VERY FIRST YEAR OF PRODUCTION OF THE G SERIES MODEL A SUPERB EXAMPLE IN THE MOST ICONIC PORSCHE COLOUR EVER. nbsp;GUARDS RED YET STILL RETAINING THE CLASSIC ANODISED SILVER DOOR FRAMES. WINDOW TRIM. DOOR HANDLES AND CHROME MIRRORS OF THE EARLIER MODELS IT REPLACED.

INTRODUCED IN 1974 TO REPLACE THE OUTGOING 2. 4 MODEL IT HAS MORE IN COMMON WITH THE VENERABLE 2. 7 RS OF THAT YEAR.  THIS BASE MODEL USES THE SAME 2. 7 CRANKCASES AND BOTTOM END. nbsp;915 5-SPEED GEARBOX WITH IMPROVED RATIOS.  IMPROVED FRONT WING MOUNTED ENGINE OIL COOLER. BILSTEIN DAMPERS ALL ROUND AND VENTILATED DISKS. IT IS FURTHER UPGRADED WITH ELECTRONIC K-JECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION (INSTEAD OF MECHANICAL) AND STRONGER ALLOY TRAILING ARMS AT THE REAR.

IN FACT TO UPGRADE THIS ENGINE TO 2. 7RS SPECIFICATION IS MUCH SIMPLER THAN USING AN EARLIER ENGINE TO WHICH YOU HAVE TO ENLARGE THE BARRELS ETC. THIS ENGINE CAN BE UPGRADED EASILY WITH HIGH COMPRESSION PISTONS AND THE EARLIER MFI INJECTION SYSTEM AND YOU HAVE AN RS ENGINE !

BUT WHY WOULD YOU ? THIS CAR HAS BEEN TUNED FOR TORQUE NOT HIGH END PERFORMANCE AND LITERALLY WHIZZES UP TO A CRUISING SPEED OF 95MPH EASILY AND WILL MAINTAIN THIS ALL DAY LONG RETURNING GREAT FUEL ECONOMY INTO THE BARGAIN.

IT IS A TIME WARP CAR - NO ACCIDENTS. PROBABLY ALL PAINTWORK (ALL ORIGINAL STICKERS ARE INTACT IN DOOR SHUT ETC. ) IT IS HARD TO TELL THE PAINTWORK IT HAS EVER BEEN PAINTED THE QUALITY IS SO GOOD AND THE EXTREMELY LOW MILEAGE OF 45. 00 MILES IS BELIEVED GENUINE.

PREVIOUSLY A CALIFORNIAN CAR AND OWNED AND CHERISHED BY PORSCHE CLUB AMERICA OWNERS IT THEN WENT TO CANADA WHERE IT HAS BEEN FOR 8 YEARS AND MAINTAINED AND DETAILED IN THE CONDITION YOU SEE TODAY.   IT HAS WON BEST OF SHOW AND 1ST IN SHOW AWARDS.

IT COMES COMPLETE WITH A BRA AND A DEALER FITTED NON-OBTRUSIVE HEATER/AIR CONDITIONING UNIT (DISCONNECTED) DISCRETELY HIDDEN IN THE SMUGGLERS COMPARTMENT UNDER THE  BONNET. NO OBTRUSIVE KNEE MOUNTED AIR CONIDTIONING OUTLETS ONLY A LARGE AND VERY EFFECTIVE BLOWER THAT EXITS UNDER THE DASH TO COOL OR HEAT THE ENTIRE CAR MUCH MORE EFFICIENTLY THAN THE THE ORIGIANL SYSTEM EVER DID (REQUIRES RECOMMISSIONING)

THE ENGINE HAS BEEN RECENTLY RESEALED AND NEW SSI HEAT EXCHANGERS AND EXHAUST FITTED AND FOUR NEW BILSTEIN DAMPERS REPLACED ALL ROUND.

THE PANEL GAPS ARE SO VERY VERY NICE AS YOU WOULD EXPECT BUT THE MOST ASTONISHING FACT IS THERE SEEMS TO BE ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE WHATSOEVER TO THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR EITHER. IT APPEARS ALL ORIGINAL AND INTACT. NO SCRAPES OR DENTS HAVE WE BEEN ABLE TO FIND AT ALL.

THE CAR STARTS EASILY. DRIVES BEAUTIFULLY. STOPS SHARPLY AND HANDLES VERY WELL DUE TO A RECENT GEOMETRY TUNE UP TOO.

THE WHEELS ARE REFURBISHED ORIGINAL 7IN ATS ALLOY WHEELS WITH TYRES OF AT LEAST 6MM-7MM OF TREAD.
(ALTERNATIVELY A SET OF FUCH WHEELS IS BEING REFURBISHED TO NEW CONDITION AND ARE AVAILABLE AT COST WITH BRAND NEW TYRES TO THE SUCCESSFUL BUYER IF REQUIRED).

THIS CAR IS ELIGIBLE FOR HISTORIC CLASSIC RALLIES OF THE TYPE YOU SEE ADVISED REGULARLY IN CLASSIC CAR MAGAZINES. REGULARITY NON COMPETITIVE EVENTS IT WOULD BE IDEALLY SUITED TOO OR JUST ENJOY THE CAR FOR WHAT IT IS A TRUELY EXCEPTIONAL OUTSTANDING ORIGINAL EXAMPLE OF THIS FAMOUS MARQUE.

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR BIDDING

VIEWING THIS CAR BEFORE YOU BUY WILL GIVE YOU CONFIDENCE AND IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. ANY INSPECTION WELCOMED. PLEASE CONTACT TO ARRANGE.

---------------------------------

WE PURCHASED THIS CAR FOR A CLIENT TO PREPARE FOR SERIOUS MOTORSPORT AND WAS AMAZED WHEN WE RECEIVED IT HOW GOOD IT ACTUALLY WAS SO WE PURCHASED ANOTHER CAR SO THIS CAR IS NOW AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE.

WE ARE AWARE APART FROM THE IMPACT BUMPERS THE SHELL IS VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL TO AN EARLIER CAR AND IT THEREFORE WOULD LEND ITSELF TO A VERY HIGH QUALITY RS REPLICA FOR EXAMPLE AS IT NEEDS NO RESTORATION. WE THINK IT WOULD BE A SHAME TO DO THIS TO THE CAR AS ITS RIGHTFUL PLACE IS WITH SOMEONE THAT WILL PRESERVE THIS EXTREMELY VERY RARE EXAMPLE OF THE MARQUE. I'LL LET YOU DECIDE.

BIN

WE WILL CONSIDER BUY IT NOW OFFERS AROUND £35K OR WE WILL LET THE AUCTION RUN ITS COURSE.
