History of the Porsche 911

When Porsche wanted to improve its 365 a completely new model has to be created for more space for the occupants and storage for all set of golf clubs :-). Ferdinand Porsche, the eldest son of Ferry Porsche was in charge of the design while his cousin Ferdinand Piëch developped the engine.

The new model was presented at Frankfurt in 1963 as the 901 but thanks to Peugot changed to 911 (Peugeot claims the right to three-digit car with zero in the middle).

Technical Specification

Great restoration with the original silver color and many factory options (outside door mirror, Dunlop tyres, Blaupunkt radio, double head rests...).

Great article and beautiful photos.
I love vintage sports cars.

Thanks, I love too vintage cars especially for the design.
And Porsche 911 of the 60's, dream car :-). I want to know the price of this auction in order to see if one day this dream can become reality.

Nice looking car, but I think it needs a whale tail, cheers mate.

I love it just like that...
