The vehicle in detail

A fantastic back date of a 1985 Porsche 911 Carrera 3.2 to 1972 911S specifications using only correct Porsche parts whilst retaining the more modern and reliable 1985 mechanical units. The engine has been rebuilt and bored to 3.4 litres which coupled with a bespoke stainless exhaust system gives greater power and abundant torque.

The quality and detail of the build has to be seen to be believed, panel gaps are exacting, way better than the original as is the paintwork finish, the underside is similarly perfect in finish. Every aspect of the car is visually correct from the Recaro sports seats to the door cards and pockets, the 1972 instruments, column stalks, steering wheel and aluminium sill finishers. The fitted air conditioning system utilises the original temperature slider controls for operation and works far better than the original would have. The electric sunroof, windows and central locking have been retained, all working perfectly.

It is not just a visual delight, on the road the 911 is a wonderfully taut with a turn of speed that no original 1972 example could hope to match. A few miles in it becomes clear that this car was built to the highest standards by people who really know what they are doing. Indeed Clark & Carter are recognised as one of the world’s leading restorers and are trusted by well-heeled knowledgeable collectors across the world. They have a number of significant concours wins to their name.

Only five of these 911S Back Dates have been built by Clark & Carter, three going to one of the world’s most significant car collectors. This example was completed in 2018 and has covered 5,000 miles since completion, it remains in unmarked immaculate condition throughout and was returned to Clark & Carter for a major service towards the end of last year.

A very special car.
