THE PORSCHE 911

A modern classic if ever there was one, Porsche's long-running 911 arrived in 1964, replacing the 356. The latter's rear-engine layout was retained, but the 911 switched to unitary construction for the body shell and dropped the 356's VW-based suspension in favor of a more modern McPherson strut and trailing arm arrangement. In its first incarnation, Porsche's single-overhead-camshaft, air-cooled flat six displaced 1,99cc and produced 130bhp; progressively enlarged and developed to today's modern 911.

Type 901, as it was originally named, has become one of the very few automobiles in history that can be identified by its silhouette. The purity of the 911's design lives on today in the profile of the newest Carrera coupes, and the loyalty of the Porsche enthusiast community world-wide is second to no other.

THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

This desirable Short Wheelbase Porsche 911 was completed at the Zuffenhausen-based Porsche Works on April 29, 1966. The car left the factory wearing colors close to what is sports today; code 6604 Light Ivory exterior paint over a black Leatherette interior with Pepita cloth inserts. The car was optioned with a Webasto Gasoline heater and Dunlop tires. Like many of these early Porsche 911's, this car would make its way to the Porsche-loving US market and would by the mid-2000s become part of Porsche and classic car guru 'Urban Outlaw' Magnus Walker's well-known collection. Walker, a former fashion designer, has been fascinated with Porsche automobiles since his childhood, is known for collecting and customizing classic Porsche cars and has become one of the most recognizable people on the Porsche and international collector car scene. This early 911 was restored and mildly customized by Mr. Walker for speed and agility and presents in classic Grand Prix white over a black interior. GTS 'Le Mans' bucket-style sport seats are installed and trimmed with black and white Pepita inserts - much like when the car was new - while the rear seats have been removed and a bolt-in roll bar delicately installed. A Momo 'Jacky Stewart' steering wheel is fitted to steer the sporty Porsche through twisty backroads, and the dash reads 'Get out and drive - Pedal to the metal, Cheers Magnus Walker, 2010', signed by him at a Porsche meeting at the Nurburgring in 2014. Fuchs wheels are fitted and shod on Good Year tires, and plexiglass rear vent-windows are fitted. The engine fitted is a period-correct 2.0-Liter unit, just 7 numbers off the original engine number (907540 vs 907533) listed on the Porsche-issued Certificate of Authenticity, which is trimmed with performance-oriented accessories such as hydraulic chain tensioner, K&N filters and electronic MSD ignition.

Mr. Walker would part with the 911 in 2010, at which point the 911 was shipped to Europe and has remained there until now. While in the current Danish enthusiast ownership, the car has received more restoration work performed by the capable local Copenhagen-based Porsche dealership. Detailed receipts from this work carried out between 2017 and 2019 can be found in the history file, and totals more than 530,000 Danish Kroner (close to 100,000 USD).

Early, short wheelbase 911s are universally loved for their brilliant handling, tractability, reliability, comfort, and classic good looks. With Magnus Walker ownership and a very cool 911R Outlaw theme throughout the car, this example would make an excellent stallion for any number of fabulous tours and events, or a perfect weekend joy machine.
