Porsche 911 L

ENGINE AND GEARBOX

The flat 6, with a displacement more than adequate for such a light 2-liter car, develops 110 bhp. Following a total rebuild of the engine at the Porsche RSR Vintage specialist in St Jean en Royans, the engine starts without any problems, oil leaks or suspicious fumes. During the drive, the acceleration thrust is straightforward and without a dip in power, and is well calibrated thanks to a 4-speed manual gearbox (also refurbished) that is easy to drive. In terms of the chassis, the running gear has been completely reworked.

EXTERIOR

From the outside, this ‘short chassis’ or rather short wheelbase version is recognisable by the torsion bar flap almost touching the wheel arches. Apart from that, the look of the famous coupé remains unchanged: there are no ostentatious aerodynamic appendages to detract from the deep black lines. The traditional 5-spoke Fuchs wheels are in good condition and there are no defects in the underbody, where the floorboards have been restored and protected.

INTERIOR

The all-black cabin is in very good condition and is finished to a very high standard. The standard comfort seats are very supportive and have no cracks, holes or scratches. The rear bench is also free from signs of wear. The driving position is optimal, and the gear lever is easy to reach, with the large-spoke steering wheel in untreated wood adding a magnificent patina to the cabin. The black felt roof lining is in perfect condition. The black plastics on the dashboard and console are undamaged and crack-free. The black-backed instrument panel, in the Porsche style, is in perfect working order and offers excellent visibility thanks to the slim steering wheel, while the period radio blends in perfectly with the dashboard.

CONSUMABLES

The tyres currently fitted are 2022 Vredestein Classic 195/65 R15s in mint condition. The braking system is in mint condition.
