Details

This restored U.S. spec 1973 Porsche 911T coupe is powered by a 2.4L flat-six engine that is equipped with mechanical fuel injection, and a five-speed manual transmission that delivers power to the rear wheels. The exterior was given a bare-metal respray in the original Gemini Blue color. The correct black leatherette upholstery was re-trimmed during the restoration. This example was optioned with a power sunroof and retractable antenna. Powering the antenna is a full-functioning Alpine stereo system. The car sits on the original Fuchs wheels that are wrapped in vintage Pirelli tires. The odometer shows 83,375 miles, but it is not known if it has rolled over; therefore, the total mileage is unknown. This 911 has spent most of its life in California, and a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity can be found in a link below. The car is currently located in Miami, FL.

This California numbers matching car has been photographed and inspected by a third party. The paint shows well and has a rich color. The black bumperettes do show some wear, but the car is free of dents and major scratching. A photo in the inspection shows some cracks on the passenger-side taillight as well as some minor scratches on the window trim. The seals and shut lines are all in order, and the interior shows well. The upholstery shows no signs of age and the carpets show little wear. The sunroof switch is said to be inoperable, according to the inspection. A video of the smooth-running engine can also be seen in the inspection. It should be noted that this model is not equipped with air conditioning. Included in the sale are two keys.

About the model

The Porsche 911T Coupe and its Targa sibling continued as the entry-level 911 variant for 1972 and 1973. As with the higher-end E and S variants, Porsche would upgrade the 911T to a new, larger 2,341 cc (2.3 L) engine, commonly known as the "2.4 L" engine. With the power and torque increase, the 2.4-liter cars also got the newer and stronger transmission, identified as the 915 gearbox. Non-US versions (ROW), were carbureted and featured the Type 911/57 engine, rated at 130 hp. US-spec 911T's had engine Type 911/51 and featured mechanical fuel injection (MFI), and were rated at 140 hp. In early 1973, US-spec 911T's, often referred to with the 1973.5 model year or with a 911 T/E designation, were equipped with Bosch CIS fuel injection on the Type 911/91 engine (Type 911/96 with Sportomatic). This powertrain combination preserved the power output of the US-spec version at 140 hp, but with lower emissions. For model year 1974 the "T" designation was dropped and the model was replaced with the 2.7L 911 Coupe Base Model.
