About this car

This left-hand-drive 1973 911 T is one of the so-called '1973.5' cars, a short-run transitional batch built for the US market in the final months of the long-bonnet 911. Rather than the mechanical fuel injection of earlier US cars, it uses Bosch K-Jetronic CIS injection on its 2.4-litre air-cooled flat-six, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox.

It was first registered in the USA and arrived in the UK in late 2001, which makes it an unusual sight here. The odometer shows 58,090 miles.

The bodywork was comprehensively restored in 2015/16, including a repaint in its original Glacier blue, and the work is documented with hundreds of photographs. The interior is trimmed in black leatherette.

Performance

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Porsche factory data for European-spec carburettor 911T 2.4 (130 PS DIN, 205 km/h); US-market CIS cars were rated differently. Weight left out because sources disagree on the DIN figure, and 0-60 left out because Porsche published only 0-100 km/h.).

Top speed: 127 mph
Engine: 2,341 cc, 6 cylinders
