Porsche 911 T

Porsche 911 T

Coupé, 1972

Highlights

  • Oil flap
  • Concours standard with rating 1+
  • "Nut and bolt" restoration

The Porsche 911 is a legend of automotive engineering, but the 1972 model year occupies a very special place in its history. Only in this one model year was a unique design feature installed that makes it a true icon for collectors and enthusiasts worldwide: the so-called "oil flap". The external oil filler neck on the right rear fender was placed there for weight distribution reasons, but due to confusion with the fuel filler neck, it was removed after just one year. This short production time makes it a highly sought-after and unmistakable collector's item.

The vehicle in detail

This example of a 1972 Porsche 911T 2.4-liter "oil flap" is presented in the iconic Bright Yellow (117) color with a classic black interior. It has undergone a meticulous "nut and bolt" restoration, with every part renewed or refurbished to original specification.

The care taken in the restoration is confirmed by a Classic Car Report with a top score of 1+, underpinning its outstanding condition. Under the hood is a newly installed, air-cooled 2.4-liter six-cylinder boxer engine that perfectly embodies the authenticity and driving pleasure of the early '11 era. Coupled to a precise 5-speed manual gearbox and equipped with original Fuchs rims, this 911T offers the ultimate air-cooled driving experience.

This vehicle is particularly fascinating due to its unique provenance: it comes from the estate of René Staud, one of the world's most renowned automobile photographers. Staud, who was born in Stuttgart in 1951, is considered a master of studio photography and is known for his innovative "Magicflash" lighting technique, which enables him to present cars as true works of art. His photographs of Porsche and Mercedes-Benz models, which he has immortalized in numerous illustrated books, have themselves become icons. The fact that such an iconic photographer owns such an iconic vehicle combines the technology of the car with the art of automotive photography in a unique way. It makes this 911T a piece of cultural history on wheels, immortalizing the fascination for the automobile.
