Description of 1964 Porsche 912

Automobile Treasures is proud to present........
This very rare, very early, Museum Porsche. This is number 100th Porsche built at Porsche Factory. 2 Prototypes were built before.Under the hood id plate shows 912 / 356 (see photos).
One of the 100 that had to be built with racing specs per Homologation racing rules. From these 100 only 5 complete survivors are known to exist per PORSCHE Worldwide Registry. (See attached photos).
Car was Appraised by Petersen Automotive Museum insurance back in 2016 for $385K. Car was insured for that amount by Museum insurance. (see Museum insurance copy in photos).Recently the car was Appraised for $515K by a different and also very reputable Appraiser.
THE FIRST 150 911'S ARE SELLING FOR 7 FIGURES. (SEE SALES IN PHOTOS).
This is why this 912 just Appraised for $515K. Only because it has a 4cyl instead of a 6 Cyl engine, half a million dollar differance in value, just because the engine is smaller ?
PRICE TO SELL QUICK. HAVE AN INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY AT THIS MOMENT. AS LONG AS THE OPPORTUNITY IS STILL AVAILABLE WILL SELL IT FOR LOWER PRICE, OTHERWISE, THEN THE PRICE GOES BACK UP TO APPRAISED VALUE.
The 4cy 912 handles better then the 1964 / 1965 911's. Because the 912 has a better weight distribution. (See article reg that, in photos).
The first 100, 912's are more rare then the first 100, 911's. With time they will be more collectible.

It is like finding treasure if you find an original complete Survivor from these first 100.The id plates under the hood of the first 100 cars shows 912 / 356.
This car has many original parts in almost new condition, because it has always been garaged. This is why the Petersen Automotive Museum gave the Perfection Award to this car.
This car has it's all original body, including original front and rear rubbers, bumpers, lights and grills,original windows, original material inside the windows, original undercarriage and parts.
The oldest 911 Found is number 57 (#300057) The Porsche Museum in Germany bought it, it was a rust bucket, they restored it using other parts and is now in exhebition at the PORSCHE Museum. (See attached photo).

Features and Provenance of the car and history!(VERY IMPORTANT TO READ).
Porsche raced with the 356, then they built the 6 cyl 911, on the track the extra rear weight hurt the performance.
Then Porsche experimented and put the 4cyl engines they had from the 356 on the 911 bodies, putting the 5 speed 904 transmission on the early cars to rece, the result, was great, they had a car with better handling then the heavier 6cyl 911's and called it the 902 / 912 (This is why the transmission number on this car is (902/1) see Certificate of Authenticity in photos).
They built the first 100, 912's to race. People started to order them, they built less then 700 cars in 1965, then the car was such a success that they started building more and more out selling the 911 2 to 1. (See article in photos).
- The first 100 cars are Extremely rare, specially original ones because per racing Homologation rules car manufacturers had to built 100 cars with racing specs ready to race, many crashed and have disappeared throughout the years, only 9 are known to exist world wide, only 5 are complete per Porsche World Registry. (See attached photo).
- This car most likely raced since it is one of the first 100 built required per Homologation racing rules, it was very common for engines to blow on the races and Porsche replaced them, this had a replacement engine in late 1965 with a blank case, later the replacement number was stamped. This was very common with the first 100 race cars built.- Car came out in PORSCHE Book Japanese Edition! (See attached).
- Porsche in June 1965 used an ivory with black interior 912 Porsche for their catalogs and Media advertisements. Could very well been this one of two built ivory with black interior from the 6 ivory color built from the first 100 built at Porsche factory. The other 94 were different colors. (see attached photo).
- The car came out in Life Styles of the Super Rich with Robert Frank. (See attached photo).
- In 2016 the car was Appraised for the Petersen Museum insurance wile being at the VAULT Exhebition and later the PORSCHE EFFECT Exhebition. The car Appraised for $385K and was insured by the Museum for that amount. (See insurance in photos)
- Recently the car was Appraised for $515K. USD by another prestigious Appraiser.
- The Legendary Racer Fred Goeske owned the car, he imported the car directly from Germany back in 1965. (See attached Kardex).( License Automotive racers were able to import cars before the general public.)
- From the first 100, Porsche built about 16 different colors, with different color shades of red, blue, green, yellow, etc. And also with different interior colors and materials, like black, tan, red interiors.
- From these first 100 cars divided by 16 colors about 6 were Ivory color and only 2 had black interior.
- Ferdinand Alexander Porsche is posing next to a 902 Porsche, Ivory color with black interior. Is a good chance it could be this one, or at least we know this car is the only survivor ivory with black interior from the first 6 ivory Porsches built, because the only other ivory Porsche survivor is in Germany and it has a red inerior. (See attached photo).
NOTE: They built the first 100 cars almost at the same time within few days of completion. (See attached photo of factory).There are many Porsches on the factory being built at the same time with different colors, notice there are only 2 Ivory color Porsches. People wanted the new colors, like aqua blue, royal blue, aqua green, olive green, burgandy, light yellow. Etc... not to much Ivory color, because it was not a new color.
Also, notice in the Porsche factory photo taking in Spring of 1965, that those are 912 Porsches, you can tell by looking at the engines.
- This car won the Perfection award from The Petersen Automotive Museum. Was exhibited at the Museums VAULT. This car was chosen as one of the 48 most significant and iconic Porsches in the World, was chosen for the Porsche Effect in 2018 through 2019, representing the Porsche 912 models. (See attached letter from Museum).
- The Museum's insurance, insured the car for $385K. See attached copy of insurance coverage.
Recently the car was Appraised for $515K. USD.
The 912's are very rare and are becoming very collectible, with time they will be among the most collectible Porsches in the World.Open to offers.323-767-77FiveThree
