1974 Porsche 911S Air-Cooled Flat-6 Project Car '88 911 Engine Swap 5-speed V6
1974 Porsche 911 S
Is there any sports car manufacturer that's remained truer to its heritage than Porsche? The staff in Stuttgart have single-handedly built an 86-year legacy out of performance-minded engineering, while designing some of the most endearing cars ever produced. Today Porsche is one of the most well respected automakers on the planet and the brand enjoys a cult-like following that was forged through cars like this 1974 911S.
Featured here we have a classic unrestored 1974 Porsche 911S wearing a coat of Irish Green. From what we have been told, the car was updated with a 1988 Porsche fuel injected engine and manual 5 speed transmission.The car started its life in Massachusetts and then traveled to Flag Staff, AZ, down to Santa Fe, NM, until the current owner brought it up to IL. Since its time here, the car has been recently gone through by our team to get it back into running and driving condition. Copies of registration tracking is in its file of history that the car comes with. Also in the file are motor swap invoices (as seen in photos here) where the original motor had 121,006 miles on it in 1996. The current speedo is showing 85,899 so we're guessing it had a speedo change along the way. That being said, actual miles are unknown here.The car needs paint and an interior if you were to start to think about restoring it. However, one could rip the interior right out and save some weight and go out and enjoy the line-carving 911S in all its glory - on the race track. As car enthusiasts, we all know that every serious sports car manufacturer sells various levels of capability. And, much like Ferrari's GTO or Corvette's Grand Sport, Porsche's S moniker essentially guarantees hardware that can handle intense track time.
These air-cooled porsches are climbing in value every day and now is a great time to grab your own 911 project car and enjoy restoring it, turning it into a track car, or just enjoying it as it sits - you really cannot go wrong in a 911. This 911S is, without a doubt, one of the coolest Porsches ever produced. And if you're a savvy enthusiast looking for a classic sports car that has value, athleticism and equity, it's one of the best collector cars your money can buy!
