Thank you for looking at my fully restored 1966 Porsche 911. This is a very nicely restored 911, the car starting as a very rust free California car with all known history being in California.

I have restored multiple Porsche 356's and 911's over the last 25 years, this being one of the most recent.

I purchased this car from a Pacific Palisades fireman August 2012. I believe he did not have the car very long, but the previous owner was also in Southern California and there were older stickers on the car from Central California Surf shops. The Kartex shows that the car was originally sold and serviced at Porsche Cars Southeast, Jacksonville Florida. Based on the rust free condition of the car, I believe the car to have spent the majority of its life in California. Mileage stated is what is on the odometer, I would imagine it turned over once.

Performance Assessment

This911 runs great. I have now put over 200 miles on the car to sort it out. Starts easily, idles good, runs very smooth, pulls strong,brakes well and shifts up and down through all five gearssmoothly. No leaks! All the electrics work. If you would like additional photos or have specific questions please ask.

Selling Details

I have a few early 911's and have decided to sell a couple cars to raise funds for a race car project.

I highly encourage you or a designate to inspect the carin person. Absent that, I have done my best to accurately represent this Porsche to you. I have sold about 6 cars on EBAY over the years and can provide references if needed.

I require a $500 non-refundable deposit to be paid via PayPal within 48 hours.Final payment due within 1 week. The buyer is responsible for securing and paying for shipping/transportation arrangementsfor the car.I will work with the buyer's transportation company to ensure a smooth and safe loading of the vehicle. I can assist with overseas shipping, have done this before.

Feel free to call me with any questions you might have.

If you are a marketing firm, please respect that I do not need or desire any help selling my car. Thank you in advance for not calling!
