1967 911 Coupe Modified

Once short, now long, still expensive

The choice for today’s Spotlight car was a battle of the builds. While I personally prefer the one I feature below, the price at which this modified 1967 911 Coupe sold for was worth diving much deeper.

This custom 911 was the subject of a 4,000+ hour restoration that was completed in August 2021 and subsequently displayed during Monterey Car Week. Finished in Aetna Blue, the car was disassembled and converted into LWB specs along with steel RSR-style fender flares, a hood-mounted fuel filler, and a 1972-style external oil filler lid on the right quarter panel. Having only been driven 2,000 miles since completion, the paint still looks to be in excellent condition as evidenced from the hundreds of photos in the gallery.

On the inside, the interior was completely redone as well with fixed-back bucket seats trimmed in Camel leather with painted backs. The dashboard and instrument surround were painted to match the exterior as well and the car features plenty of Camel leather on the interior. Out back, a custom 3.4-liter flat-six with a stated output of 350 hp powers the rear wheels through a rebuilt 915 manual trans. A ton of work sure went into this one.

After the car was displayed in Monterey in 2021, it sold on PCARMARKET at a final bid of $372,000. Back in 2021, this was outrageous money for a modified early 911, and actually, still is, as the price has never been bested. Not even this time around, as it sold for $355,000.

And even though it sold for less, I’m thinking this was still well sold. That’s a TON of money for a SWB, or LWB for that matter. Especially considering what that would buy you in the 964 Backdate market.
