E Series - All Oelklappe?

Post by kasbridge »

Hi folks,
I’m viewing a 911T shortly, VIN 91121022XX which makes it a E series car towards the back end of US market production I believe.

I expected this day to be an oelklappe based on Paternie but it’s not - did Porsche ditch the flap before the start of the ‘73 model year cars?

The car is restored, not original.

Many thanks,
Kevin

Any help/opinions gratefully received!!!

I know. It’s mind blowing how time passes.
You know my thoughts on that 911.
