1969 Porsche 911S Coupe

This Porsche 911 S left the Zuffenhausen assembly line on November 19th of 1968 wearing a Blutorang, or Tangerine exterior with black leather seats and trim. Its original owner specified tinted glass all around, a rear window wiper, and a radio installation package that included a dashboard speaker, antenna, and static suppressor.

After leaving the factory, the car was delivered to Hahn Motorfahrzeuge in Stuttgart and sold to a Mr. Deleplace, owner of an automotive shop in Champigny-sur-Marne, east of central Paris. The car remained in France for most of its lifetime.

In 1999, Mr. Deleplace sold the 911 S to a Mr. Van De Kerckhove, whose widow sold it to its third owner in 2004. The new owner sent the 911 to specialist Garage Baumet in Morières Lès Avignon for a complete overhaul. The car was sold once more in 2018, then sent for a final check-up that included an oil and filter change, a new master cylinder, a brake system overhaul, and the installation of four new Michelin tires.

This Porsche 911 S has its numbers-matching engine and gearbox, and the mandatory amber French headlamps. There is a Blaupunkt stereo radio and stainless rocker-panel trim.
