1974 Porsche 911 Rare Gemini Blue One Owner for 45 Years So Cal Car AMAZING!

1974 Porsche 911. Vin 678-276-7045. 90,571 Miles. 5-Speed Manual. Metallic Blue. Black Interior. One Owner for 45 years out of Souther California! This particular 1974 Porsche 911 is such a rare bird. One of just 4,014 911 Coupes manufactured world-wide for the model year, it was sold new in Fullerton, California, and owned for close to 45 years by none other than Bud Bird, a well-known Orange County personality. Having travelled a mere 90,571 miles in 45 years and having been always garaged and... covered, the car presents extra clean to this day, which is reflected everywhere, including in the trunk compartment, which still contains everything from the the original felt matting, full factory tool kit and tire inflator. Porsche's Metallic Blue is one of the most beautiful and desirable period colors available. It really evokes the spirit of the carefree Seventies and embodies California's sunny disposition. Of course, the iconic FUCHS light alloy wheels -- an extra-cost option for 1974 -- have to be part of the package. They are in fantastic condition and shod with excellent PIRELLI P6 radial perfomance tires of the size P185/65-R15. The interior shows as nice as the exterior, and the perfectly preserved VDO gauges are a feast for any aficionado's eyes. This slicktop 911 is equipped with air conditioning, which actually not only works but also blows quite cold! The period BLAUPUNKT cassette-stereo along with the BLAUPUNKT equalizer are still in the car, which further adds to this car's value. Engine compartment is toothbrush clean and appears authentic-looking throughout. The BOSCH CIS-injected engine starts on the button and idles smoothly. The underside of the car is absolutely magnificent and there is no spec of rust in the body! The motor and the transmission are bone dry and everything looks intact and in place. The car runs, drives, handles, and stops with the best of 'em. Due to the special, 1974-only ring and pinion in the diff, it is oodles of fun to pilot at any speed. Above 4500 rpm, it really comes into its own. Lightweight and on par with a longhood "E", power-wise, the flat-six never disappoints. It's no wonder the '74 model is being valued so highly among those in the know as being the best of the early, narrow-bodied 2.7 cars as it shows off Porsche's original concept of simplicity & speed to great effect. The '74 G-model really is the one to have. Collector car financing available at competitive rates.
