Finished from the factory in Polo Red, the car received sheet metal repairs and a replacement decklid before being repainted Glasurit DB180 Silver Gray under current ownership. Exterior equipment includes bright trim, a driver-side mirror, pop-out quarter windows, and gold-finished badging. The window frames and door trim were finished in chrome by Royal Silver of Norfolk, Virginia.
Silver 15″ steel wheels wear polished hubcaps and are mounted with 165-width Vredestein Sprint Classic tires. The suspension features Koni shock absorbers and was overhauled along with the four-wheel disc brake system under current ownership.
The interior features front bucket seats and fold-down rear seats that were reupholstered in black leatherette during the refurbishment using a kit from Autos International of Escondido, California. Sound-deadening material spans the floorboards under the carpet, and appointments include manual-crank windows, a locking glove compartment, rubberized floor mats, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio. The seat pivot covers were finished in chrome by Royal Silver of Norfolk, Virginia.
A replacement wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts green-lettered VDO instrumentation that is said to have been refurbished under current ownership by North Hollywood Speedometer in California. Meters consist of a central tachometer with a 6,800-rpm redline, a 150-mph speedometer, a clock, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, oil temperature, oil pressure, and oil level. The five-digit mechanical odometer was reset at the time of refurbishment and currently shows 2,300 miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 2.0-liter flat-six is said to have been sourced from a 1966 911 and overhauled to factory-specifications prior to being installed by the current owner. Features include dual Weber IDA3 carburetors and a PerTronix electronic ignition system.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a replacement five-speed manual transaxle that was reportedly sourced from a 1967 911S and overhauled by Eric Wills of WillsWerks in January 2022. Additional underside photos are provided in the gallery below.
The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity lists a build date of July 5, 1966, and displays factory colors, equipment, and production statistics.
