Cooper Classics LTD has developed a reputation for sourcing and selling among the finest Porsche 912s on the market. We are particularly excited about our latest offering, an extremely early 1965 912 that we consider to be a historically significant car for Porsche enthusiasts. This 1965 Porsche 912 was completed in July 1965, and was the 421st 912 Built out of the initial production run of 700 912s built by the Reutter (then owned by Porsche) factory. 912’s were also built by Karmann of the same year, but it is generally understood that Reutter/Porsche built bodies are of higher quality, and thus accepted as more valuable. Our ’65 912 is in excellent condition inside and out, with the paint appearing as new, and the interior also being lovingly preserved. The paint appears at most 5 years old. The seat covers and carpeting are new, while the remainder of the interior remains in excellent original condition. One of the most distinctive traits, amongst many, of this first year 912 is the body color painted dashboard, in the same style as the 356. For only 1965, Porsche did not paint the gauge surrounds on the 912 Black, and started doing this in 66. These extremely limited, and extremely rare 912s are called the “Painted Dash” series of 912s. 1965 911’s of this era received 5 gauges and the dashboard was painted black, making this unique and lovable trait only applicable to early 1965 912s. The COA confirms that this investment grade 912 retains its matching numbers engine in excellent condition along with its original color combination of Light Ivory over Black. Numerous Servicing and Registration records date back to 1969, showing fastidious servicing at Porsche specialists during its single ownership from 69-2020 in California. There is absolutely zero rust on this 912, and the original floors are pristine. Within the last few months, this 912 has been extensively serviced with an eye on maintaining this 912’s high level of desirable originality. The clutch was replaced in 2020 by Lomita 911 Service, Inc. An electric fuel pump helps this 912s matching numbers engine start instantly from a cold start. An original style Blaunpunkt radio is currently installed in the car. This 912 has been maintained, serviced, and cared for as necessary, but still retains a remarkable character that is hard to find in overly restored cars. All this 912 is in need of is it’s next caretaker for the next 50 years. Call us today to acquire the most historically significant Porsche 912 currently listed for sale today.
