An early short-wheelbase example, this 1967 Porsche 911 Coupe is finished in Polo Red over a Black interior and features an upgraded 2.7-liter engine paired with a 5-speed manual transaxle. It was refinished in its factory color before the current owner’s purchase in 2015 and comes with a refurbished black interior, new GTS Classic bucket seats, a 350mm steering wheel, a WEVO shifter, Bilstein shocks, a Tarett Engineering front sway bar, Turbo tie rods, stainless-steel brake lines, a Golde electric sunroof, H4 headlamps, and professionally restored 15” Fuchs wheels. Accompanied by service documentation, the original 4-speed manual gearbox, and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this 2.7-powered 911 is now being offered for auction out of California with less than 30k miles reported since the engine build.
This 911 is said to have been refinished in its factory Polo Red (6602) paint color in 2014. Details include chrome trim and body moldings, chrome bumperettes with rubber overriders, a driver’s side mirror, H4 headlamps, an aftermarket Golde electric sunroof, front vent windows, pop-out rear quarter windows, and anodized gold badging on the rear decklid. The car rides on 15” Fuchs wheels from 1972, which have been professionally restored and dressed in Yokohama Neova AD08R tires. The seller adds that the paint and original glass remain in excellent overall condition. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
The black interior has been refurbished with new carpeting, headliner, vinyl upholstery, and fixed-back GTS Classics sport bucket seats. Other items include a 370mm four-spoke leather steering wheel, brushed aluminum dashboard trim, a wood shift knob, a WEVO shifter, manual roll-up windows, a locking glovebox, a heater, lap belts, a fire extinguisher, black coco floor mats, and analog VDO instrumentation. The sale includes an OEM steering wheel and a 350mm custom steering wheel. All gauges and accessories are said to be fully functional.
Installed and rebuilt under previous ownership, the 1974 Porsche 911-sourced 2.7-liter flat-six engine features RS-spec pistons and cylinders, Carrera chain tensioners, Dilavar head studs, updated idler arms, and a high-volume oil pump. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a replacement 5-speed Type 901 manual transaxle that was refurbished by S-CAR-GO of San Rafael in 2018. The original 4-speed manual gearbox is included in the sale. Stopping power comes from four-wheel disc brakes with refurbished front calipers and upgraded stainless-steel lines. The suspension has also been lowered and modified with Bilstein shocks, Turbo tie rods, and a Tarett Engineering 25mm adjustable front sway bar. The seller notes that the car has been meticulously maintained during their ownership, and invoices are available for all major services.
This sale will include the original 4-speed manual gearbox, two extra steering wheels, a collection of original parts, owner’s manuals, a spare tire, a tire inflator, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, service records, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “This is a rust-free CA long hood with no issues. Clean car that looks/drives great and garners lots of attention. All original glass is in great condition. It has been lowered and corner-balanced, but could easily be raised back to its original height. I've owned it for 10 years, and my project is done.”

This certainly brings back memories for myself and many of the viewers. I owned several of these vintage 911s from new. The lines are so clean and the car is a true classic and fun driver as are 356s. This example seems to be a keeper. Good luck on the sale!!

I love this car but it's time to let it go. The 2.7S engine is a screamer that doesn't leak a drop. The car handles like it's on rails, it's never seen the track but is track ready. Really hard to let this one go.
I'll be happy to answer any questions and fill you in on the build
