The 1967 model year was a particularly pivotal one for Porsche. The 911’s third full-production year saw the introduction of the high-performance S model, as well as the first variant to include a removable roof panel, dubbed the Targa. The 911 S featured 23% more horsepower, as well as an upgraded suspension with adjustable KONI shocks. The earliest examples of the Targa featured a zip-out, “soft” rear window, which provided a more complete open-air experience. The S was sold in both Coupe and Targa body styles, with the sought-after latter version being exceptionally rare, as just 483 of the 2.0 S Targas were built for the 1967 model year.

This 911 2.0 S Targa has undergone a meticulous, ground-up restoration utilizing respected specialists and materials. The engine was rebuilt by the renowned David Loop European in Monterey, while the body was refinished utilizing Glasurit products. The original Fuchs wheels were refinished by Harvey Weidman. Each component has been refurbished to superb condition, down to the steering wheel, wipers, and instruments.

Accompanied by extensive restoration records, fitted with a pair of rare, optional Recaro sport seats, and presented in its original Polo Red color, this refined, short-wheelbase 911 S Targa welcomes your thorough inspection and represents a seldom-seen opportunity to acquire a landmark piece of Porsche 911 history in outstanding form.
