This is the one that you have all been waiting for, nunmolested 1973 (the best year) 2 liter with all the right stuff. This car was delivered with the FactoryAppearanceGroup(center console w/ gauges, hrome bumpers, inyl covered sail panel, nd fog lights) and Performance Group ( Alloy wheels, ront and rear sway bars), laupunkt am/fm radio and most important everything is still there. Including the original fuel injection system on a completely rebuilt engine. No short cuts here with receipts for a total, ase split rebuild that included all new bearings, istons and cylinders, ebuilt heads with new valves and guides, lutch and pressure plate. Even the engine tin waspowder coatedto make this a perfect example that you will be proud to own and drive. Stock car with no modifications except a period correct Momo steering wheel. Solid car with no rust issues that is ready to enjoy. As can be seen in the photos, he original alloy spare is still in place and the jack is included along with the owners manual. I shouldn't have to tell anyone what these cars are doing price wise. They are finally getting their due but only the best, nmolested examples and this is one of those. Yes, here is a reserve number but you all know what they are bringing in the market place so don't be bashful or you will miss out. I willentertain offers to stop this auction as it is for sale locally so check your bank account, sk you wife and make me an offer I can't refuse.Inspectionand test drives are recommended, ust give me a shout to set it up before someone else does. Car is currently licensed and insured and enjoying summer drives. If you drive this car you will buy it, t is just what you need in your Porsche collection before they go the way of 356 and early 911 prices.

I have received lots of questions and support for this example, ome well intentioned some not. Let me clarify a few points so that there is no misunderstandings concerning this 42 year old car.

The mileage as stated can be verified as accurate using the detailed service records including the original Factory warranty book that comes with the car. Those documents are available for inspection but I will not forward photos of a 2" thick service file.

The spare tire rim is a Factory alloy that came with the car and has been used. It should be reconditioned if the car is to be shown as could the other 4. The spare tire alsoappears to be original to the car and since that would make it 42 years oldit should not be used. I certainly wouldn't use it.

I will restate again that all panels are original to the car and there is no evidence of any clips, ollusions, r other body work. The carwas refinished in Factory silver in 2014, don't think it is reasonable to expect that an 80k mile car that is 42 years old would have a flawless finish like this one. In the processof painting some mistakes were made. The rubber seal between the trunk and fuel compartment was lost and has not been replaced. Theoriginal carpeting on the panel below the seal haspulled away and needs to be reglued. There is some overspray on the rubberstraps that hold the jack in place that should be removedand the original jack itself, hile never used, ould use a good cleaning. I wouldn't think these items would be a deal breaker but make your own decision, hat's why it's an auction.

The gaskets on the car are original and could be replaced as evidenced by the damaged piece above the drivers head. Time and heat have alsotaken their toll on other rubber parts like the pieces on the tops of the doors that wipe the side windows.

The front hood latch has been replaced as the original failed. The replacement is a used part from a '74 Malaga Red car hence the red oversprayon the topof the latch. This is not an indication of a front end collusion, ustsloppy work by a mechanic who should've cleaned the part before it was installed. I must give full credit to viewers with a doomday approach to used cars as I suppose anything is possible. However, o conclude that the front of the car is a clip based on that overspray is a real stretch even for those holding the sign that says"The End is Near".

Hagerty has not inspected this car and I have not made any claims as to if it is a condition 1 or 2 car. That is up to bidders to determine upon inspection. Spending a lot of time making that determination without seeing the car in person would seem like another stretch but I guess some folks think they can do the job long distance because they have one apart in their garage. I don't recommend it.

Thanks for all the feedback, t has been very entertaining and good luck bidding.
