1976 Porsche 912E in Silver Metallic!

1976 Porsche 912 Description

The car is in excellent condition, runs, drives, stops and handles wonderfully. This one is a very early 912E - built 7/75 and is #49 of about 2100 produced only for 1 model year for US market only. Current mileage is just under 105K.
It was originally purchased at Bill Stremmel Porsche of Reno, Nevada with port of entry being San Francisco. Considering how clean and rust-free it is all over it's safe to say it was always a West Coast car. A previous owner lived in the Bay Area also and seems to have invested quite a bit into the car with lots of records. The car had its clutch done around 100K mark and got a window out thorough repaint in original color in 2006. Suspension bushings along with all sort of seals were done then as well, heads were rebuilt in 2004. Not a lot of miles were put on it since then. Most recently a fresh battery was installed and a 4-wheel alignment was performed. I have a more detailed compilation of work performed if need be.
This Porsche is in excellent condition, runs, drives, stops and handles wonderfully. Engine is stock including thermal reactors. It does seep a little oil as most aircooled cars do. Ignition has been converted to a Pertronix electronic module for reliability reasons and starts and runs great. Brakes are firm without vibration and the 923 gearbox shifts as smoothly as it should. The paint is in excellent condition although there is some minor chipping on it from road use. Underside and engine compartments are both clean and rust-free. Original ATE Cookie Cutters are very clean with great paint and tires have plenty of thread. A lot of those wheels got junked and replaced over the years so it's fairly rare to still have the original set with the car. The interior is in excellent condition, dash has no cracks and seats have no rips (that I can see). Headliner has been replaced at the same time and is very clean. The car runs happily at freeway speeds and I would not hesitate to drive it cross country today. However, just to cover myself, please keep in mind this is a nearly 45 year old vehicle so adjust your expectations accordingly.

Included with the car are original jack + lugnut wrench, some of the original tool kit, owner's manual, front license plate along with a bracket (not installed), a 912E service guide, all records, touch up paint, an extra Mahle oil filter and a pair of thermal reactor bypass pipes. The car passed California SMOG on 3/10 without a hitch and I have a clean title in hand so it's ready to go. The car is a tremendous amount of fun to drive but unfortunately I live in the city proper with multiple vehicles and storage is a major problem.

This is not an emergency sale. Looking at the recent Hagerty guide, I would conservatively place the condition of the car between 2 and 3 with my listing price being appropriately in-between those valuations. I can also assist your shipping company if need be.

P.S. it appears the pic with odometer reading has some glare. The mileage shown is somewhere around 104800 range, I assure you. I will retake the pic at some point when I get the chance.
