DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

I fell in love with this. On the one hand because this is exactly what my '74 Carrera will look like when restored. But also because it's a fantastic car. 2.7 RS engine, ducktail, 6" & 7"s, chrome lights, black trim, black leather sports seats, lime green, very early chassis number (1...

170K I would hope to get a coupe for that money.

Ian,

I got 4 gallons delivered for £76 from www.racelubricants.co.uk

Thanks Alan,

I was told back last July that Porsche were 'sourcing a new supplier'

Alan, did you get any date from Porsche? I have had one on order since last July for my impact bumper and getting to the point where it will be needed soon.

Hi Ratbox, Just to clarify bright anodised was standard on all 911 and 911S models 1974 to 1977 with Black as an option. Black was standard on all 1974 & 1975 Carrera 2.7's and all 1976 & 1977 Carrera 3's with bright anodised as an option. With the black trim option the headlamp rings were c...

Hi Ratbox, Bear in mind that the cars with chrome trim from 1974 to 1977 (standard 911 an 911S and Carrera with chrome option) did not have an over-ring as the headlamp surround itself was chrome plated. Also you will see 'headlamp ring prime coated' is listed in the catalogue as 75- In the case of ...

Yes and no!!! The door frames and windscreeen trims were black anodised as standard on the '74 Carrera (VIN 91146xxxxx) but could be optioned in chrome or more strictly speaking bright anodised. The headlamp rings for 1974 were always chrome with either of these options. For 1975 models (VIN 91156xx...

Here's a link to a copy of the brochure to which 'Ratbox' is refering:

I recently obtained COAs for both my Carrera 3 and Carrera 2.7 For the Carrera 3 it lists '5-speed' in the options list and also separately the transmission serial number although not the type in the transmission type/number column. For the C2.7 however it shows 'no data' for the transmission type/n...

Paul, My understanding is contrary to what Nigel says (rare for him to be wrong though) in that the '74 models with a ducktail were not fitted with the rubber front chin spoiler which only came in with the '75 model in conjunction with the whaletail. This is stated in Paul Frere's 'Porsche 911 Story...

Pete,

As already stated the standard was black anodised but chrome could be specified as an option. It is not listed for your car so assume it was black. The headlamp rings would however have been chrome as all were for 1974.

Hi Jasper,

I run the PCGB Register for the 1974 to 1977 911s and it has been on the register. Tony Smith is recorded as a previous owner but unfortunately apart from that there is no history recorded for the car.

Hi Dan, I also have a '74 Carrera 2.7 and will certainly restore to original, think you should do the same. With the number of these cars that have been modified as 'RS replicas originals and especially those in top condition have become rare. There were about 1600 IB Carrera 2.7 coupes produced, sa...

Roger has an open day at his premises near Exeter next Saturday 28th with open workshop, demonstrations and parts for sale. Sounds like a good day out.
