This 1965 Porsche 911 coupe is finished in silver over black leatherette and is powered by a replacement 1.6-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle, both of which were reportedly sourced from a contemporary 912. The car was built in April 1965, and it was acquired by the seller from the estate of its previous owner in 2001. Equipment includes 15″ Mahle wheels and woodgrain dashboard trim. Recent work is said to have included draining the fuel tank and replacing the battery.
Originally finished in Light Ivory (6404), the car was repainted silver under previous ownership. Exterior features include chrome-finished headlamps surrounds, a driver-side mirror, and rear bumperettes.
The 15″ Mahle wheels feature center caps with the Porsche crest and wear Wide Track Radial tires. A matching spare wheel is fitted in the front trunk. Braking is provided by discs all around.
The cabin features front bucket seats and individual rear seats upholstered in black leatherette along with matching door panels and gray carpets. Woodgrain trim adorns the dashboard, and the radio is missing.
The leather cover on the four-spoke steering wheel is split at the seam. VDO instrumentation consists of a 7k-rpm tachometer, a 150-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 91k miles.
The factory 2.0-liter flat-six was replaced under prior ownership with a 1.6-liter flat-four sourced from a 1965 Porsche 912. Recent work is said to have included draining the fuel tank and replacing the battery.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a replacement four-speed manual transaxle.
