That's a longhood, so 1968-1971, or 1973. It's not a 1972 because it doesn't have the oil door on the passenger rear fender. 1968 was the first year for the fixed rear window targas (as well as the first year for the T designation, though the badge could've been added). It's hard to tell in that pic but that might be the push-button door handle which would date it to 1968 or 69 (the trigger style was introduced in 1970, I believe). So if I'm correct in my reading of it, it's a 1968 or 69 911t, in need of rear shocks . What else do you want to know about it?

I assumed it had been painted, but now that I look again it looks like it has the later style flag mirrors, so it's possible this is a back-date.

Is this local? Wonder if owner would sell it?

I always thought springs hold the static height of the car, maybe the springs are worn causing the low ride height... not that it wouldn't need new shocks anyways....

New shocks ?? Maybe a rusted out torsion bar tube...
The side mirrors are not period correct (if 68-69), and I don't know if antenna placement on right fender was an option back then (mine is on the left front fender.
That exhaust/exhaust tip mounting suggests some self wrenching 101 has taken place (although some heavy looking headers down below).
Not very clear in the photo (perhaps because of the black colour), but I can't see the torsion tube cap on right rear quarter (I have often times seen them body worked into the rest of the body via a homemade patching).

Whatever it is, this car will need a fair amount of work to make right, if you want it original. Not that that can't be done, even cost-effectively, just something to be aware of.

You can index the torsion bars on these cars to go as low as you want, doesnt mean you can assume anything is shot really. All you can say is that it is not stock ride height.

My bet is that the torsion bar mounts rotted out and the car became a lowrider! If you kick that car the door might fall off.

They had to be, they are supporting the weight of the back end.
