I am selling this for a friend. I have authorization to post this car, field questions and act as agent.

The current owner is second from new. He purchased the car from a local Doctor back in the 60's and he has owned and loved the car ever since, nearly 50 years. This is a color change from White to Signal Red and was done in the 70's by a local shop well know for their work. The motor and chassis match. The transmission was changed in the 60's by the factory and is noted on the COA, so all numbers do match.

The car is in incredible condition! The paint was done locally and was done to a very high standard. The motor was cleaned up, undercarriage cleaned and protected with black protectant. Car sits on 16's color matched as you can see, and includes a period Glaspar top which was the better of the 2 hardtop options back in the day. It's always been a California car purchased at a local dealer in California and has always been garaged. No rust, that I have been able to locate. A truly outstanding piece of Porsche history.
