Coupé, 1968

Highlights

  • Delivered as a company car to a Swiss Porsche dealership on 9 April 1968.

  • Thoughtfully upgraded with deep respect for the distinctive 1968 details and with the clear intention of being driven and enjoyed.

1968 Porsche 911 S

The Porsche 911 requires little introduction. It is more than a classic-it has become an immortal design icon, still produced today as the very definition of the ultimate all-round sports car. Among the early iterations, the Porsche 911 S remains the most coveted. Limited production numbers, combined with a number of subtle visual traits unique to the model year, render the 1968 series particularly distinctive.

The S variant also introduced notable mechanical enhancements: ventilated disc brakes, Koni shock absorbers, and-most importantly-160 horsepower from the air-cooled 2-litre flat-six engine.

This car was originally European and was long believed to be a 911 L. Only when the highly regarded Danish Porsche specialist Kim Clausen acquired the car and disassembled it did the chassis number emerge, revealing its true identity as a 911 S produced in April 1968 and finished in colour code 6804 Hellelfenbein (Light Ivory).

The vehicle in detail

What followed was an almost five-year restoration in which Kim Clausen invested more than 1,000 hours of meticulous craftsmanship. The car has been examined and refined down to the smallest detail and now presents with original Porsche components throughout the drivetrain. It has been fitted with a backdated 2.7-litre flat-six engine from 1976 producing 160 horsepower. The gearbox has been replaced with a finely tuned Type 315 unit, and the car has received several additional upgrades chosen according to Clausen’s deep understanding of the model.

The entire project has been executed with the aim of creating the most rewarding driving experience possible, while preserving the aesthetic integrity of the original design. Visually, the car remains highly coherent and faithful to its period, retaining all the distinctive details that make the 1968 model year unique-such as the specific form and mounting of the rear-view mirror, the design of the door panels, and other subtle features known only to the most discerning Porsche connoisseurs.
