What a beautiful car, I wonder if we can get some additional photos - the ones available don't tell much. Somebody also should let the seller know that the engine is a 2.0, not a 2.2.

gergous car!
I'am trying to sell mine now too, [for significantly less than 110,000]. If anyone's interested, I have a very professionally restored 66 911, looking to sell for around mid 20 [though who kno so, feel free to make me an offer] robert.j.collier@gmail.com or 603 643 3709
now to de-hijack this thread [sorry all]....
who buys a 911 and puts 18,000 miles on it in 40 years? I mean originality is great, and we all love to baby our cars, but I'd rather have a zillion miles and a **** eating grin!

The most recent Sports Car Market magazine reported the sale of a very nice '66 911 for $71,000. When I read that I thought that sanity had been, yet again, stretched. If the beige car is truly "original paint," then it is a very rare example. Worth the asking price? If somebody writes the very big check, maybe yes...

I think he is baking-in the cost of a total restoration to that level plus the fact that it is totally original. Hopefully, it's all the truth. Anyone would need plenty of documentation to back it up. Maybe cut it back 15-20%.

With what early cars have done recently (pricing), if that car is indeed what it is stated to be, he may very well find a buyer at that price.

Correction, the short wheelbase car (that sold for about $71K) that I mentioned above was a '65, not a '66.
dertub: The car cannot have a 2.2 liter engine and still be "correct," or "original."

It was rated as a #3 "driver". It had a few rust bubbles, improper wheels, non-original seat covers, and a few other issues. Jim Schrager (the SCM author) described this $71K sale price as excessive for its condition. I am looking forward to the release of Jim's new book on the early 911s (to be released this fall).
They did publish a comparative sale with the article of a #2- rated 1966 Porsche that sold for the same price at Barrett-Jackson last January.
The car was aid to be a recent repaint of Irish Green. I assume that this was the original color?
