1,582cc OHV Air-cooled Opposed 4-Cylinder Engine 2 Solex Downdraft Carburetors 102bhp at 5,800rpm 5-Speed Manual Transmission Independent Front and Rear Suspension 4-Wheel Hydraulic Disc Brakes *A beautifully restored example *Only 76,700km indicated *Desirable five-speed transmission *Classic Porsche styling THE PORSCHE 912 Although widely acclaimed, the 911 was necessarily expensive, a shortcoming that Porsche addressed by offering the 912 which, though outwardly identical, was powered by the 356's 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. As installed in the 912 the latter produced 102bhp, some 40 horsepower less than the 911's six, but this deficit was offset by significantly reduced weight, resulting in a well-balanced car with great road manners. The 911 gearbox was used, offering a choice of four or five speeds. A little over 30,000 examples were produced at Karmann's works (Porsche's was fully occupied with the 911) between 1965 and 1968 and today the 912 is a relative rarity when compared with its better-known sibling. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED Selling here is a 1966 912 5-speed coupe built at the Karmann works that is beautifully finished in Irish Green over black interior. The seller of this 912 had followed this car for 20 years prior to his ownership, finally having the chance to purchase the car early in 2018 after it had received a complete disassembly and rotisserie restoration. The 912 was brought back to showroom finish, with its stock appearance being maintained, even displaying its rare optioned factory Ambient Temperature gauge. Complete with the original Owner's Manual, warranty booklet, tool roll and spare tire, this 912's dossier also includes restoration invoices and approximately 800 photos documenting the tear down and complete rebuild of the car throughout its restoration. The interest and market value of early Porsche 912s has been climbing steadily over the past few years, making this example a very good candidate for an owner restoration. Virtually every piece needed for this car is available from dealers or the aftermarket, and there is an active and supportive owner community.
