What makes the 1973.5 model especially significant is the introduction of Bosch Continuous Injection System (CIS) fuel injection, a mid-year update that improved drivability and fuel delivery compared to its carbureted predecessors. One of just 1,944 produced during this short production window, the car retains its original 2.4L air-cooled flat-six engine paired with the factory 5-speed manual transmission, delivering the engaging and responsive driving experience that defines the 911 lineage. Factory air conditioning further enhances comfort, an uncommon luxury for the era.
This example was ordered in a striking Silver Metallic finish over a supple black leather interior, a timeless combination that perfectly complements the iconic silhouette of the long-hood 911. Its factory Fuchs light alloy wheels remain in place, contributing to both aesthetics and lightweight performance. Carefully selected options such as Koni shocks, stabilizer bars, the Appearance Group, tinted glass, wheel well chrome trim, and an AM/FM stereo add to both its desirability and period-correct originality.
Further emphasizing its unique provenance, the dashboard still carries the dealer-installed plaque engraved with the original owner’s name (redacted for privacy), a personalized detail rarely seen today. Included with the sale are the original bill of sale, owner’s manual, and the factory tool kit, testaments to the meticulous long-term care this car has received. Service records are also available upon request, documenting a lifetime of proper maintenance.
With only 59,000 original miles and a history of being exclusively hand-washed, this 1973.5 Porsche 911 T is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly preserved, final-year long-hood example with exceptional originality. As the air-cooled Porsche market continues to appreciate vehicles with strong provenance and unaltered condition, this single-owner survivor stands as a true automotive time capsuleready to be enjoyed as enthusiastically as it is admired.
