My 1965 911 is a pretty rare and special car the 310th 911 ever made, chassis number 300310. Originally delivered to Brumos Porsche down in Jacksonville, Florida in early 1965, its one of the first half-dozen 911s that Brumos imported into the country.

The car was originally built in 1964 and finished in early 1965, and its one that I chased for quite some time. I had to work a deal with a guy that took a lot of patience, so that was one thing I learned from this 65 911: Youve got to be patient when someones thinking of selling a car. Sometimes you get a little too keen, a little too interested, and suddenly they decide the car is not for sale that deal took about nine months.

The way the car currently sits is what Id call a Gentlemans Racer livery of silver, slate gray, burgundy, and bronze gold, rolling on 15-by-6-inch Fuchs with some vintage bucket Scheel seats, just to finish off that mid-60s sport-purpose vibe.

Magnus Walker

Though much of Porches story in America has been set against the winding canyon roads, oceanside highways, and city streets of Southern California, it was a dealership on the opposite side of the country Brumos Porsche of Jacksonville, Florida that helped forge the marques sterling reputation in its earliest years. A Porsche importer since 1958, Brumos also successfully raced the cars it sold, achieving four victories at the 24 Hours of Daytona.

It is hardly surprising, then, that Brumos would be one of the very first firms to offer the brand-new Porsche 911 to its eager American clients. This 1965 911, chassis number 300310, is not only among the earliest examples of the model produced; it is also understood to be one of the first half-dozen cars imported via Brumos. Completed in early 1965 and factory-finished in Grau over a leatherette interior, Jan Brundage, son of Brumo founder Hubert Brundage, is actually noted as the first owner on the accompanying Kardex copy. However, the car soon passed to a resident of Ft. Meyers, Florida, with the Kardex noting consistent service over the following years.

Acquired by Magnus Walker in the summer of 2009 after a chase that lasted some nine months, the 911 has been transformed into a Gentlemans Racer that rides on Fuchs wheels, with vintage black Scheel bucket seats with houndstooth inserts providing ample support during high-speed maneuvers. The silver exterior is defined by a slate gray stripe flanked by subtle burgundy accents, with bronze gold flourishes on the bumpers and sides. It is equipped with a slightly later, 1966 2.0-liter flat-six, engine number 907894.

A longtime member of Walkers personal collection, chassis 300310 is an extremely desirable representation of the 911s early history in the United States market, further elevated by its original delivery via Brumos a name synonymous with Porsche excellence both on and off the track. Sporting just the right combination of visual and functional modifications to reflect the tastes of its current caretaker, this significant 911 is a prize that would surely enhance any garage no lengthy chase required.
