Porsche 911 S

1967 Porsche 911 S Coupe

The 1967 911S cars were the first to have the extra horsepower, which was increased from 130HP to 160HP. This was a unique transition year for Porsche and as a result, one of the unique 911s was produced. The 1967 S had one of the lightest chassis as well as a 2.0-liter “S” engine derived directly from its race program. This combination produced a true sport purpose car.

This example is one of those 911S’s that has always been cherished and enjoyed. The owner spared no expense having European Collectibles perform a restoration on this 911 in 2013 to 2014 including paint, chrome, refinishing the wheels, rebuilt transmission, rebuilt suspension and braking system, complete undercarriage detail and new interior! It is in perfect condition. The car is extremely dry and straight with no signs of any rust or misuse. The interior is in perfect condition with correct factory sport seats with houndstooth inserts! All the gauges including the clock are original and have been restored.

Options include gas heater, the Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, factory flat 4 1/2” Fuchs which were one year only sporting VREDESTEIN Sprint Classic 165 HR 15 tires. Wooden steering wheel with deluxe horn ring and seat belts.

The best part is the way this 911 S drives. It is pure Porsche. There is nothing like the way these short wheelbase with the short stroke early motors free rev. The 2.0-Liter runs perfectly. Shifting is precise and very smooth. It is one of the better feeling 901 style transmissions we’ve experienced. The steering is very light and responsive with no pulling or other alignment issues. The brakes have been completely rebuilt along with the suspension. This would be the ideal 911 for vintage touring events.

Complete with the original owner’s manual, restoration receipts, Certificate of Authenticity, spare wheel/tire, and tools.
