I am selling my 912 Porsche SWB (Short Wheel Base) from 09/1965, i.e., from the first year of production, with the rare three green instruments and the original Solex carburetors. The vehicle was first registered in December 1966 and then transferred to the USA. Reason: Porsche did not build any US versions in 1965; the 912 was only offered in Europe. This means that the first 912s to arrive in the USA were driven here for a few months and then transferred to the USA, but the owner had to organize this himself. In Germany, the speedometer was therefore converted from kilometers to miles by Porsche after registration. The vehicle was returned to Germany in the early 2000s and professionally restored there.
It is not an over-restored classic, as I believe that you should still be able to feel the age of a vehicle, which means that some parts have been given an authentic classic car patina. The entire technology has been extensively overhauled, making it the perfect vehicle to start the 2026 season. The 912, with its four cylinders and 90 hp, may have less power than the 911, but it still offers plenty of driving pleasure. Its agility, acceleration, and sound will thrill you. Of course, we (you) will test drive the vehicle, and it will put a smile on your face. Further advantages of the 912 are its significantly lower maintenance and fuel costs.
Classic Data report grade 2 (2018).
Technical data sheet available. According to the classic car appraisal (KÜS), no deviations from the original condition were found, matching numbers according to the previous owner. The vehicle is registered and can be test driven in good weather and, of course, viewed on the lifting platform. The 912, with its four cylinders and 90 hp, may have less power than the 911, but it still offers plenty of driving pleasure.
The vehicle comes from my small collection, which I am looking to downsize, so it is being sold with a heavy heart and for reasons of time.
While the vehicle was in my possession, the technology was extensively serviced/partially renewed, for example, at early 911S in Wuppertal or Fellner Sportwagenservice Remscheid. All invoices are available and can be viewed.
As a bonus, I am including the limited edition Porsche 912 book by "Jürgen Lewandowski." No. 655 of 912.
