This 1968 Porsche 912 is a soft-window Targa that is finished in Polo Red over a black interior and is powered by a numbers-matching 1.6-liter flat-four mated to a five-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes Bilstein shocks, fog lights, a brushed stainless steel targa bar, a Blaupunkt push-button AM/FM stereo, and JBL speakers. The engine was reportedly rebuilt in the early 2000s and the soft rear window was replaced before being acquired by the seller in 2020.
The car is finished in Polo Red (6802) and features a brushed stainless steel targa bar, a removable black targa top, and a replacement zip-down rear window. Corrosion is noted on the front bumper overrider, and replacement overriders are included in the sale.
Chrome 15” vented steel wheels wear hubcaps with colored Porsche crests and are mounted with a mixed set of Widetrack Radial and Kumho tires. Bilstein shocks have been installed, and a spare is located in the front trunk.
The seats are upholstered in black vinyl and the cabin features a Blaupunkt push-button AM/FM stereo, JBL door speakers, and lap belts for all oLupants. Cracks are noted in the dashboard and door panels.
A four-spoke steering wheel fronts VDO instrumentation consisting of a central 7k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, an analog clock, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 18k miles, approximately 500 of which were added by the seller. True mileage is unknown, and the analog clock is inoperable.
The 1.6-liter flat-four is said to have been rebuilt under previous ownership and is fitted with dual carburetors. Oil leaks are noted by the seller, who also states that the engine is prone to vapor lock during hotter temperatures.
Engine case stamping matches the number shown on the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle.
