1965 Porsche 911 Coupe ⢠VIN 301979 ⢠Engine No 902119 ⢠Transmission No. 105024 ⢠Early 0-Series - produced January 1965 â July 1965. ⢠One of 3,154 produced worldwide in 1965 ⢠Completed July 20, 1965 ⢠Certificate of Authenticity Presented in its original color combination - Champagne Yellow with a Black interior. The 0 Series 911 was the first full-year production of the early 911, with only 3,154 examples built worldwide in 1965. The early short-wheelbase 911s are prized for their purity of design, lightweight construction, and lineage to the original 901 concept. The paintwork is in beautiful condition with excellent gaps and panel fit, and well-defined body lines that highlight the narrow-body proportions. A recent paint correction has enhanced the Champagne Yellow finish. The interior is stunning, with a wood dash fascia, a VDM wood-rim steering wheel, VDO instrumentation with green script, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio. Painted 4.5â x 15â slotted steel wheels are mounted to Pirelli Cinturato CN36 185 70 HR15 tires, maintaining a correct stance. The undercarriage and suspension components have been stripped to bare metal and refinished to factory specifications. The earliest known provenance dates back to 1982, when Mr. Storz owned the 911 until the late 1990s. In the early 2000s, ownership transferred to Mr. Barrington, during which time the 911 remained in use and was maintained. By 2014, the 911 had passed through the third owner, who performed a cosmetic restoration and repainted it in the original Champagne Yellow. The current owner acquired the 911 nearly seven years ago and undertook further improvements focused on correctness and mechanical integrity. An early 1965-period engine (Type 901/01) was sourced, and it was completely rebuilt along with the transmission by a well-known Porsche independent. In 2017, the engine and transmission were removed, disassembled, inspected, and all worn parts were replaced as necessary, over $62,000 was spent. The conne
