It is a crisp, quick lovely early 911 ready to be enjoyed.
'69 non-sunroof coupe in GPW. Bare metal glass out respray from red. New windshield and all rubber body seals. Perfect floors and pans with new Wurth stone guard.
Fresh 3L SC with PMOs, MSD, SSIs. Strong with fantastic sounds. Setrab front cooler.
915 is good later unit but 1st gear syncro weak. Completely usable with no other issues.
Steel SC flares, 7s and 8s x 16 Fuchs with P Zeros.
930 front brakes, drilled rotors and cooling ducts.
C2S rear brakes.
Bilsteins F/R, aggressive chassis setup with excellent balance, grip and steering feel. Perfect low stance.
Nice interior with excellent Sparcos and 4pt Sabelts. Momo prototipo, RS panels, rear seats gone. Excellent black headliner.
I bought the car from Jeff Gamroth (Rothsport ) last year. I've known and done business with Jeff for many years, since he first started his own shop.
I initially intended to convert it to more of family touring car with rear seats, standard belts, etc. It's a bigger job than I thought, plus the car has a sporting character which would be diluted somewhat. Plus my son will soon outgrow the rear seats!
In the last year I've driven it maybe 10-15 times for short runs near my house. It hasn't seen a track that I'm aware of.
If you are unfamiliar with Rothsport, they have a national if not international reputation as one of the pre eminent 911 shops. Jeff went to LeMans with AJR and won the GT class in a 911RSR.
My car was initially built as a loose interpretation of a Carrera RS. Rothsport did the chassis, brakes, steering, PMO carburetors, general tuning and setup. The SC 3L and 915 gearbox were already done and approved by Jeff Gamroth. Any car finished, tuned and set up by Rothsport is going to extremely good, period. Everything will of the best equipment, technique and craftsmanship.
The car is far more potent than an original RS but retains the excellent feel of a snarly (240hp), lightweight (2200#) vintage 911. IMO the setup is perfect. I would not change anything. It has front monoballs which give the front end very quick response. It is stiff but not uncomfortable, particularly with the Sparco seats. They are the most comfortable racing seats I've experienced--nicer than Recaro SRDs or SPGs. And they're like new.
It previously had all the RS graphics which I removed except the small ducktail script. The graphics come off easily by carefully using a heat gun. Now it's a blank canvas to do whatever look one wishes. For ideas, you may want to check out:

The market for early 911s is extremely strong with no sign of softening. Acquiring a fine early 911 is a wise investment. A car's connection to a renowned shop only enhances its cache among the cognoscenti.
And you get to enjoy the investment while it appreciates in value.
That is my car in a nutshell. I'm happy to provide any more information that you require.

Guten tag Rennlisters--
I'm happy to entertain offers. The car is very right--not always a given when building a car!
