According to an accompanying copy of the Kardex data sheet, this short-wheelbase example of the classic first-generation 911 was sold new in September 1965 via the Hahn dealership in Porsches home city of Stuttgart, Germany. Finished in the desirable and popular colour combination of Polorot over a Schwarz vinyl interior, chassis 302303 was equipped from the factory with a Webasto heater, sunroof, antenna, speaker, plus two seatbelts.

While the complete history of this 911 is not known, it was registered in France come 1988 before being sold via Porsche specialist August SA of Ohain in December 2014 to a local resident. The Belgian dealership looked after the car once again in June 2016 when it was acquired by The Curated Collection.

Presented in restored condition and notably retaining its matching-numbers 1,991-cc flat-six engine that delivers 128 horsepower via a five-speed manual transmission, this Porsche 911 will appeal to marque enthusiasts and collectors of significant sports cars.
