SELLER'S NOTES
This 1972 Porsche 911S coupe was built in July 1971, and purchased new by Apollo 7 astronaut Walter Cunningham, who took delivery on October 21, 1971.Power is from a numbers-matching flat-six that has been rebuilt to 2.7-liter RS specifications.The 5-speed manual transaxle was optioned from the factory with a limited-slip differential and has also been rebuilt.Finished in its factory color combination of Silver Metallic over black, the car features sport seats and an aluminum engine lid and license panel seen only early in the model year.Bodywork was completed during the restoration by Best of Show Coachworks, followed by a repaint in the factory shade of Silver Metallic (925) using Glasurit products.Work included replacing the parcel shelf with a panel from another 1972 911S, as well as removing RS-style fender flares that had been added.Chrome trim and other brightwork was refinished during the restoration, and hardware was retained and re-plated.New-old-stock parts were sourced when possible and fitted, including front and rear Bosch turn signal housings and lenses, Bosch H4 headlights, taillight housings and lenses, and through-the-grille fog lights, which were a factory option.A new windshield and rear window were installed.15” Fuchs alloys show May 1971 date codes and were refinished by Harvey Weidman, as was the matching spare.Michelin XWX tires are mounted.The suspension was fitted with new bushings and new rear Koni shocks, while the front Koni struts received new inserts.The rear torsion bars were upgraded to 24mm, and Turbo tie rods were added.The aluminum brake calipers were restored by PMB Performance, and new rotors, pads, and brake lines were installed along with a new brake reservoir.The cabin features optional leather sport seats up front and was refreshed by Autobahn Interiors.The seatbelts were re-webbed and the buckles rechromed, and the pedal assembly was also rebuilt.New parts include the Hirschmann antenna, fanfare horns, radio speaker, turn signal and windshield wiper switches, window cranks, and Hella interior lamp set.A Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio is listed as factory equipment.The instruments were restored by Hollywood Speedometer, and the 5-digit odometer shows 89k miles.
