A 1966-generation Porsche 911 S, the model distinguished by its Fuchs alloy wheels, 160 bhp twin-cam flat-six, and ventilated disc brakes. In 2015 the car underwent a thorough cosmetic and mechanical restoration at the 901 Shop in Florida, encompassing a full engine rebuild, gearbox overhaul, suspension retuning, and a bare-metal quality repaint in Light Ivory. Seldom used since completion, it retains rare factory sports seats alongside the original comfort seats.

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
