Work carried out includes cleaning and resealing the carburetors, inspection of the braking system, and standard ignition and oil service. Both the engine and gearbox are original according to the Kardex, making this a rare early SWB matching-numbers 912 coupe with the factory 5-speed transmission which is also rare .

As an early short-wheelbase (SWB) model, this 912 features characteristic details such as horn grilles, the split rear engine lid, and chrome wheels — all present and in correct condition. The floors and structural components are solid and show no signs of significant previous damage. The white paint shows some age-related wear; for example, the paint on the front hood could benefit from improvement.


INTERIOR:
According to the Kardex, the car retains its original interior. It features a black interior and the three green gauges commonly seen on early 912 models. The interior shows normal signs of wear, consistent with a car of this age.


DOCUMENTATION:
