This 1969 Porsche 911 T is an iconic classic sports car, with an upgraded engine. Power comes from the original matching-numbers flat-six, which was bored out from 2.0 to 2.2 litres, paired with a ‘915’ five-speed manual transmission. An Australian-delivered right-hand drive example, this 911 was supplied by Scuderia Veloce Motors Willoughby in March 1970, and was kept by the same family for around 40 years. Originally specified with the ‘Sportomatic’ transmission, it was fitted with a five-speed manual in the early 1980s, and in the early 1990s, the engine was rebuilt and bored out. The seller reports that just 39 examples of the 1969 911 T were sold in Australia and New Zealand, of which only four were finished in Burgundy. This is believed to be the only one of those four specified with tan leather comfort seats. The seller notes that it was placed into storage in 1997, before being recommissioned in 2022. The odometer shows 18,468 km, though this is not warranted, as the speedometer unit is understood to have been replaced when the engine was modified. Introduced in 1968 as the new entry-level model in the 911 line-up, the later-production long wheelbase ‘T’ shared its equipment with the 912 and was fitted with a 2.0-litre flat-six as standard, though the engine in this example has been bored out to 2.2-litres. Painted in Burgundy, the car has a tan leather-trimmed interior. It rides on 15-inch black and silver Fuchs alloy wheels, wrapped with Bridgestone Ecopia tyres. Equipment includes a four-spoke steering wheel, heating and ventilation controls, and push-out rear quarter light windows. Accompanying the vehicle will be the original owner’s manuals and service book, two keys, a spare wheel, and a collection of receipts. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. Specific notes from the seller include: a minor chip on the engine lid; the leather would benefit from some conditioner; a little discoloration on the edges of the headliner. The most recent technical inspection was reportedly completed in September 2024. The most recent maintenance was completed in July 2024, when The Pit Exchange / Carburettor & E F I Service Co repaired the speedometer and hand throttle, replaced the distributor, and rebuilt the Weber carburettors. In November 2023, Corsa Veloce replaced the engine oil, oil filter, a leaking oil feed line, the carburettor gaskets, and some perished fuel lines. In 2022, Autohaus Hamilton completed some wiring repairs, and Coogee Auto replaced the fluids, spark plugs, and leads as part of the recommissioning process. This Porsche 911 T is a head-turning example of the renowned classic sports car. Boasting a discerning engine upgrade and an eye-catching colour scheme, it would make a fine addition to any assembly of iconic classic cars, and a striking weekend driver for any Porsche enthusiast.
