Rare Barn Find Porsche 912

Own a piece of history.


Forgotten Rare Euro Spec. Silver with Red Interior.

Complete with engine and 5 speed transmission. Clean registration & tags till Oct 2020. No accidents on file. 11,414 Miles on record.

Still sporting its original red interior, the car has beautiful patina throughout and is ready for a new custodian who will enjoy it as much as its first owner has. It would be an excellent basis for a restoration or complete rebuild and brought back to running and driving condition and returned to the open road as a wonderfully preserved early 912.

There was a time when people wanted new cars, and previous years' models of Porsche 911 and Porsche 912 could be had for pennies on the dollar — that time is long past. With vintage Porsche models skyrocketing in value, they are as much an investment as a an automobile. Bucking the trend, a well known doctor in New Hampshire purchased his 912 (the four-cylinder variant of the flat-six 911) at the age of 39. The car was in a side impact accident and put in a garage in Exeter, New Hampshire for 40+ years when it was recently discovered and shipped to the West Coast. The car has developed a great patina and some serious rust along the way while remaining in remarkably original condition.

Concourse examples of this car can go over $125,000 at Sotheby's auction. However, this car is rough and will need a lot. It has rust and although the engine turns by hand, it has not been started in 40+ years.

This car is sold complete with engine and drive train. Car does not run and drive.

FAQ

I am a PCA Member and Private Party.

  • Car is local at my mechanic in Simi Valley, California and available to view m-f 9-5 and Sat 9-4 but only prior to auction ending.
  • Do you have additional pictures. These are the most current and complete pictures on hand. I have no others.
  • ALL INSPECTIONS WELCOME PRIOR TO AUCTION ENDING.
  • Car is listed locally, and we reserve the right to sell to a cash buyer.
  • It's in rough condition. It needs a lot. It looks complete except for a front bumper, front glass, driver's side door, fender and front glass but it may be missing other parts.
  • It has rust. Expect a car with rust including but not limited to rocker panels and floor pans. Tires may be low/flat at time of pick up. We can fill them but it will need new tires. Wheels not 912 original.
  • I have a clean NH registration in hand. The registration and tags are current until October 2020. No accidents on registration. NH is a title exempt state. I will provide you will all the paperwork I have from the New Hampshire Department Of Motor Vehicles along with their letter of exemption.
  • The motor and trans are all there and original Porsche from what we can tell.
  • There are 11,414 miles on the odometer and we have no reason to believe it is any different. However we can not guarantee this.
  • Included parts: The engine and transmission are intact and included. You will note a few boxes of parts are included. You get everything in the picture. I am told that there is well over $15K in parts alone on the car so my asking is well within reason.
