This 1968 Porsche 912 coupe had been modified with a Subaru engine when it was acquired by the seller on BaT in November 2017, and a rebuilt flat-six with 86mm JE pistons and cylinders was installed in 2019. The car is finished in Irish Green over black leatherette and Pepita cloth upholstery, and additional equipment includes a Type 901 five-speed manual transaxle, 15″ Fuchs forged alloy wheels, disc brakes, sport seats, a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, and a RennShift shifter. This SWB 912 coupe is now offered with the removed flat-four and four-speed manual transaxle, a set of steel wheels, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, the owner’s manual, service records from current ownership, spare parts, a car cover, and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Irish Green (213) and is equipped with H4 headlights, bright bumper guards, black windshield wipers, and a single exhaust outlet. the seller notes various dents, a chip in the windshield, and spots of flaking paint.
The 15″ Fuchs forged alloy wheels are mounted with 195/60 Pirelli P6 tires. The car is equipped with an independent front and rear suspension, and stopping power is provided by disc brakes at all four corners. Sway-a-Way adjustable spring plates have been installed, and the rear trailing arm bushings were replaced in 2018. A set of steel wheels with hubcaps is included in the sale.
The 2+2 cabin features sport seats trimmed in black leatherette with Pepita cloth inserts. Appointments include Dynamat sound deadening in the floors, Coco floor mats, a RennShift shifter, a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, and lap and shoulder belts. There are cracks in the dash.
The smaller-diameter four-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of VDO instrumentation that was previously refurbished by North Hollywood Speedometer and fitted with LED illumination, including a 7k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, auxiliary gauges, and an analog clock. The five-digit odometer shows 61k miles, which is not considered to be accurate. Approximately 1,300 miles were added under current ownership, and total mileage is unknown.
Previously modified with a Subaru EJ25, the car was fitted with a 2.3L flat-six that was rebuilt by Mayo Performance of Euless, Texas with 86mm JE pistons and cylinders and re-ground camshafts in 2019. A replacement fuel tank and level sending unit were installed in 2026 and the dual Zenith carburetors were cleaned and tuned.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Type 901 five-speed manual transaxle.
The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity lists factory colors and equipment as well as a production completion date of April 3, 1968.
The flat-four was rebuilt in 2018 with 86mm pistons and cylinders by Mayo Performance, and it is included in the sale along with a spare four-speed manual transaxle.
