1973 Porsche 911E Coupe 5-Speed

A subsequent refurbishment including a repaint in the factory shade of Beige Grey, a refresh of the interior, and rebuilds of the 2.4-liter flat-six and 915 five-speed manual transaxle. The car was brought back to the US in 2023, and additional work in 2025 involved resealing the engine and transaxle as well as rebuilding the MFI pump and distributor, installing SSI heat exchangers, and replacing the fuel pump, alternator, starter, oil pump, and shifter bushings. Power is supplied by a 2.4-liter flat-six linked with a 915 five-speed manual transaxle, and equipment includes a 911S-style front spoiler, H4 headlights, 15″ Fuchs alloy wheels, Elephant Racing rear spring plate bushings, Bosch mechanical fuel injection, Recaro sport seats, and a push-button Blaupunkt radio.

The car was disassembled and stripped to bare metal in 2020 before receiving a single-stage repaint in its factory shade of Beige Grey. A 911S-style front spoiler, H4 headlights, and Euro-style taillights have been added. Paint meter readings are presented in the gallery below.

The 15″ Fuchs alloy wheels are mounted with 185/70 Vredestein Sprint Classic tires. Elephant Racing rear spring plate bushings were installed in 2025. The car was factory equipped with ventilated disc brakes at all four corners.

The Recaro front sport seats were reupholstered in black leather as part of the refurbishment, and the seat belts and door pockets were replaced at that time. Amenities include a push-button Blaupunkt radio, a locking glovebox, and a heater.

The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames VDO instrumentation consisting of a 150-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, an analog clock, and gauges for fuel level, oil level, oil temperature, and oil pressure. The fuel level gauge and five-digit odometer were rebuilt in January 2025, and the odometer now shows 95k miles.
