Well documented, numbers-matching 1967 Porsche 912 Coupe, finished in the original color combination of Slate Grey (6601-G) with a Black leatherette interior—continuous ownership history from new, a meticulous mechanical and cosmetic restoration.

Delivered in May of 1967 by South Import Motors, Inc., the first purchase was by Alexander & Dorothy Brownlee, two esteemed professors at the University of Chicago. After relocating to Colorado in 1968, the couple cherished the 912 as their primary means of transportation until their passing in 1990, when the 912 passed to their close friend, Dr. Richard Smith, in 1991. The 912 remained well preserved in garage-kept condition throughout their 23-year stewardship.

According to the current owner in 1992, with 89,000 miles, the past owner Dr. Smith commissioned a engine rebuild by Bug Clinic, Inc. in Illinois. The matching 1600cc flat-four engine #750030 was rebuilt with new pistons, cylinders, main bearings, camshaft and lifters, pushrod tubes, Solex carburetors, clutch, flywheel, ignition components, and more. No expense was spared in ensuring the long-term mechanical health of the vehicle.

In 1998, the 912 was cosmetically restored by Vorderman Auto Body and Restoration in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The rust-free body was stripped to bare metal and repainted in its original color of Slate Grey using a basecoat/clearcoat system. All the body seals, lights, and trim were replaced or refurbished, but it retains the original SEKURIT glass and SIGLA windshield.

Further cosmetic and mechanical improvements include:

• Engine refinished and powder-coated in gloss black
• New engine sound deadening installed
• Wheels powder-coated in Bengal Silver with Vredestein Sprint Classic 165 HR15 tires
• Complete brake system rebuilt with calipers, new brake pads, rotors, lines, and hoses
• The interior was upholstered with grey carpets and black upholstery

The 912 was acquired in 2017 by the current owner of Newport Beach, California, a lifelong Porsche enthusiast, to celebrate his 50th wedding anniversary. Under his ownership, the 912 has been exclusively maintained by European Collectibles and kept in pristine, show condition.

Included with the sale:

• Original owner's manual
• Dealer service booklet with records (up to 24,600 miles)
• Blaupunkt radio card & Hirsch antenna key
• Factory tool bag (partial contents)
• Porsche 912 workshop manual

Rare opportunity to acquire a fully documented, beautifully preserved, restored 912 in a coveted color combination. From its rust-free undercarriage to its concours-level engine bay, this example offers tremendous value and pedigree, an ideal choice for any enthusiast.
