This nice Porsche has had 3 California owners and is correct except for the paint color and interior as stated in the C.O.A. Current owner since 2004 commissioned a bare metal restoration that required minimal bodywork. Original floors etc. remain except for a partial battery box floor replacement. The restoration started in March 2007 and was completed in April 2008. The car has driven approx. 7300 miles since restoration.

A complete motor rebuild was performed by the second owner. Records during this ownership are included. The current owner had the engine and transmission removed for cleaning, detailing and seal etc. replacement.

While the engine was removed it was checked and found within specs. During reassembly all gaskets, seals and pushrod tubes were replaced, carbs rebuilt, plugs points etc. and a new muffler was installed.
