Porsche produced 1,709 examples of the short-wheelbase 911 coupe for the 1966 model year. This particular example is among the first 100 in the group, known as the 'O' series. The car left the assembly line on January 14th of 1966, finished in Polo Red (6602) with a Black leatherette interior. The only options requested was a tinted windshield and rear glass. The first owner was from Dothan, Alabama. After three years, it was sold to an Eastern Airlines pilot from Fayetteville, North Carolina, and in 1980 it passed into the hands of Leonard Cummings of Marion, North Carolina. Around 1990, it was parked in a shed near Gastonia. The current caretakers acquired the car around 2016, after nearly three decades of storage.
The new owners treated the car to a full, bare-metal lacquer repaint. It was completely disassembled and then thoroughly rebuilt using all its own original parts, aside from new seals around the windshield and rear glass. After the restoration, the car was shown at the Atlanta Concours in October 2017, where it won its class.By Daniel Vaughan | Jul 2019
