1968 Porsche 911 L
SOLD! $583,000 Including Commission
Gooding Auction, Pebble Beach, CA. 2013
Coupe; S/N 11810486; Engine # 3880009; Tangerine/Black vinyl, cloth; Recent restoration, 2+ condition; Hammered Sold at $530,000 plus commission of 10.00%; Final Price $583,000. -- Fuchs wheels, 5.00×15 Goodyear Blue Streak treaded tires, 911R low back bucket seats, dual Talbot outside mirrors, braced rollbar, outside electric shutoff -- Believed to be one of as few as 28 Lightweight 911s built with 210hp engines. Equipped with the L Sport package. Sold new to John Kelly and used as a street car, then vintage race prepared for his wife, Susann Miller. Restored like new with better paint. Original engine now 2.5 liters and over 210hp. -- To say this is a very rare Porsche is an understatement. Some of its original character combining the R's engine with the L luxury equipment has been lost by the vintage race preparation, but none of that seems to have had any effect on the eagerness of the Pebble Beach Auction bidders to make it their own and this is a fairly breathtaking price, especially for a 911 with no early racing history of any significance.
