This car is undoubtedly one of the finest 911 2.2-litre Targas still in existence. It was one of the very first 2.2 T Targas built in 1969. Initially destined for the North American market and equipped with an electric aerial, tinted glass and chrome wheel trims, it was delivered new in October 1969 in Holland, in the iconic colours of ‘Tangerine’ (code 2310) for the exterior and a black leatherette interior. Incredibly, the original service book can still be consulted and shows the first service in December 1969, at 294 miles. In 1970, the car was exported to California, before returning to Germany in 2006. In 2012, it changed hands and the body was restored, retaining its authenticity and attractive original ‘Tangerine’ colour. The car’s overall presentation today is superb and the original stainless-steel roll bar for the Targa roof has only suffered some micro-scratches. The engine compartment has been painted black, while the boot in the front appears original. The state of preservation of the interior is quite unique, with superb leatherette seats which are free from tears and no doubt original. The headlining has been redone and the carpets replaced; the equipment includes a Blaupunkt radio. The previous Swedish owner had the original engine, with its twin triple-barrel Weber carburettors, rebuilt by a specialist.

The car comes with an extensive file covering its history and maintenance (with bills), as well as its warranty booklet and original owner’s manual, which is particularly rare for a car from this period. Thanks to the quality of the restoration which has preserved the original character of this 2.2-litre Targa, it is in virtually unmatched condition among cars on the market. Connoisseurs will appreciate it!
