304392roadGermany
Engine
2.0L air-cooled flat-six (Type 901/05), 130 hp at 6,100 rpm
Colour
Polo Red

A 1966 Porsche 911 completed at the Stuttgart factory on 17 June 1966, finished in Polo Red over a black leather interior with wood dashboard trim. Fitted with a matching-numbers Type 901/05 2.0-litre flat-six producing 130 bhp, the car is believed to have been first delivered to Sweden and subsequently passed through France, Germany, and Switzerland. A partial Kardex report confirms matching-numbers status, and a history file dating to 1995 supports the car's documented provenance, including a substantial engine rebuild in 2016.

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.
