1967 Porsche 912 Karmann Coupe

Numbers Matching

VIN # 463155

Engine # 756054

Transmission # 165170

Paint Code # 68-6607-G

Porsche has confirmed that all numbers match and that it came with black leather and wood steering wheel.

I have a Certificate of Authenticity on order from Porsche ( case 35297356) that I will send within 48 hours of receiving.

I will be happy to answer any questions or concerns by phone or email. My number is 907-328-9195 and please leave your name and number if I do not answer.

I believe this to be a Canadian model due to it having the Kilometer Speedometer and the Celsius Temp Gauge, looking up the transmission numbers I found them to be for US/CAN. Porsche could not confirm this at the time I spoke to them.

I purchased the car from the second owner who has owned it since the early eighties and who has enjoyed it until now. He said it had been repainted the original sand beige color before he purchased it and had the aftermarket wheels when he bought it.This had been his summer toy for the past 30+ years which he has kept in a garage or storage during the winters and enjoyed during the summer months.

This is a true survivor that has been driven and appreciated through the years. There have been few modifications and this is an excellent candidate for a full restoration or as a daily driver for years to come.

I have cleaned the carbs, adjusted the valves, and performed a tune up.

Car runs and drives well.

I have only test driven and taken this car on a few drives. This car is an absolute joy to drive. It shifts well, goes through the gears as it should, accelerates nicely, and brakes well for a car it's age. You do have to pump the brakes one time to get to them to grab well.

I have taken the best pictures I can to show the condition and finish of this survivor.

Exterior

The body is in real nice shape with minimal rust on the floor pan and under the battery. The rear looks to have had a minor collision with something (the rear bumpers are slightly tweaked).

The rear quarter panels, rocker panels and fenders are all solid and rust free.

There are chips and some peeling in the paint but it looks good and shines up well for it's age. There are signs of repaint from years ago that include tape marks on some of the rubber trim and places where there is peeling in the paint.

There is pitting on most of the chrome but it is all there and in good shape.

The glass is all In good shape for being original. There are some scratches on the windshield but no cracks

Most of the rubber trim is in need of replacement.

Interior

The seats have been replaced with what looks to be VW seats. They are mounted on homemade brackets. The rear seats are original and in good shape. The driver door panel is rough and shows it's age. The passenger rear window is missing a couple of screws for the latch.

The original rubber floor mats are all there and in good condition with one tear on the passenger side

The gauges are all there but not all working.

The Kilometer Speedometer works but the odometer does not. I did not try the trip meter.

The tachometer works as it should.

The gas and temp gauges work.

The oil, and generator lights work.

The Celsius temp gauge is there but the thermo coupling is wrapped up on the back and the light is not hooked up.

The clock is there but I did not try to get it to work.

The dash pad is in need of replacement.

Porsche looks back on very first 911 Turbo

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

Porsche has really hit on a winning formula with its series of videos going inside its vault. So far, we've seen the V8 911 prototype, mid-engine test mule and aerodynamic prototype. The company is sticking with the 911 theme in the latest entry, but this time it's an actual production car - the very first 911 Turbo ever made.
Being the first Turbo would make it important enough, but the car was also a birthday present for Louise Piëch, daughter of Ferdinand Porsche and sister to Ferry Porsche, and she regularly used the car. The family didn't just hand her a random car off the assembly line, either. She got to make it her own with some interesting modifications. She supposedly even painted landscapes from inside the car.
You have to wonder what Piëch thought of her present. The early Turbos had a reputation for being a bit of a handful to drive. The boost tended to bring the power all at once, which wasn't always welcome when cornering. She deserves some honor just for driving the car on the curvy, alpine roads. Scroll down to learn about this important Porsche, and we can't wait to see what car the brand showcases next.

LaFerrari, McLaren P1, Porsche 918 and Agera R take to Assen

Tue, 10 Jun 2014

It's the show-down (sort of) we've all been waiting for. The battle of the hybrid hypercars from the performance powerhouses of Europe: Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder. No one publication has managed to get their hands on all three just yet, but this video has - and with a Koenigsegg Agera R thrown in for good measure.
The video was shot by our (unrelated) Dutch compatriots at Autoblog.nl at the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands. The track has played host to Champ Cars and all manner of racing bikes, but this could be the ultimate grid of actual production machinery that's ever lined up behind its start/finish line. Shame the weather was rainy and this unsurpassed array of supercars weren't really racing - more showing off for the crowds. But what a show it was. Scope out the footage in the video below.

50th Anniversary Porsche 911 vs. Jaguar F-Type Coupe is a battle of beauty, brawn

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

There can't really be a loser between the Jaguar F-Type Coupe R and the Porsche 911 50th Anniversary Edition. One might be better than the other, but if you're behind the wheel of either of them, you can't complain. In a new video, Motor Trend takes on the difficult task of determining which one of these European powerhouses is the best, not just in terms of raw performance, but also how they actually feel to drive.
The Porsche 911 is one of the perennial favorites of the motoring world. It just doesn't go away and always seems capable of challenging the top vehicles in its class. In this video, Motor Trend takes a look at the 50th Anniversary Edition model that celebrates that heritage while boosting power somewhat over the standard version.
The F-Type Coupe is an incredibly masculine car, MT describing it as "a British Corvette." The coupe's exterior lines are tautly stretched over its athletic body, and it's supercharged 5.0-liter V8 sounds like a demon's growl. Jaguar seems to have things right with its latest sports car.
