1968 Porsche 911 L *911L* Featured on "Speedster" and "Petrolicious"

One of the reasons I wanted to bring this car back to LA before selling her was to have my friends over at Petrolicious shoot this film documenting the car and it's history. It's an icon that is woven into 4 decades of the LA music scene. While I don't suspect it'll make the car more "valuable" it is something that needed to be documented for myself and for the next owner.

Here's the video:

I'll list off some of the details for this car in quick fashion. If you are interested in this car please visit the micro-site dedicated to the documentation of this car at the Petrolicious site...there's really no need to replicate too much of it here but for highlights sake:

• Original window sticker

• Originally purchased by Paul Rothchild...the 5th member of "The Doors"

• Given to David Anderle in 1970 while they both worked at Elektra Records in Hollywood
• David Anderle gave it to me in 1995 when we were working together at A&M Records
• Car was restored in 2005 and has been driven sparingly since the restoration
• David was very meticulous and he saved every receipt dating back to 1968 including the original sales receipt and window sticker. These will be passed onto the new owner

• 74K documented miles
• Repainted car to a special-order Porsche color "Metallic Gold" however the car was originally a special order color called "Metallic Green"
• Rare Recaro seats dealer installed in 1970

• US mandated (ugly) side-markers removed during respray in 1977
• I've discovered absolutely no rust throughout....nearly perfect condition with the exception of a few tiny paint chips from the recent 1000+ mile road trip

• The heater boxes removed and hi performance exhaust installed in 2005
• Burns absolutely NO oil and NO leaks and compression test checks out as normal. I had Dorian at DV-Mechanics.com here in Los Angeles (formerly of "Singer" Vehicle Design) perform a pre-sale inspection for anyone who might not have the opportunity to have the car examined prior to purchase (non-LA buyers)
• Everything works (clock/gauges/lights)

Original rare black 5.5" Fuchs wheels. All perfect condition and restored back to new condition

• All chrome in new condition

• We kept a few original elements during the restoration including this sticker as well as most of the dash and gauges (that are in great original condition)

• Original complete tool kit

• The only work to do on the car (if you choose) would be to replace the window channel felts as the windows are a bit "sticky" on rolling up/down.
• Porsche Certificate of Authenticity proving original drivetrain and it's "L" originality (see link to Flickr album below for additional documentation)
• No AC (as delivered) and the AM/FM radio currently in the vehicle was an "upgrade" installation by David Anderle in 1975. We replaced the speakers in 2005 and the system works adequately (not that you will want to listen to music while driving this car)
• The car is currently registered in Oregon but, as you can see, we have the original California Black Plates for the next owner
• This car was featured in the July 2016 issue of "Speedster" magazine (French Porsche Enthusiast Mag) and here's an image from the feature

• Another page from the multi-page spread:

• You can read the entire article on my Flickr account album which is dedicated to documenting this car. There's lots of great shots of the car as well as David Anderle and Paul Rothschild with Jim Morrison, The Cure, Rita Coolidge, Kris Kristofferson and Brian Wilson (the original owners prior to myself)
