The Porsche 911, a name synonymous with sports car excellence, underwent a pivotal evolution in 1968 with the introduction of the 'T' designation. Following the initial 911 (later known as the 911L) and the more powerful 911S, the 911T – short for Touring – was conceived as a more accessible entry point into the burgeoning 911 range. It retained the iconic silhouette and superb handling dynamics of its siblings but was equipped with a slightly detuned engine, making it a more comfortable and manageable proposition for everyday driving. Early production T models, particularly the Short Wheelbase (SWB) versions like this 1968 example, are highly sought after by enthusiasts for their purity of design and direct driving experience, representing a crucial chapter in the 911's storied lineage before the move to the long-wheelbase platform. This particular 1968 911T SWB presents as a compelling project, offering a rare early production chassis awaiting restoration. While the original 2.0-liter engine has been replaced by a 2.4-liter unit from a 1972 model year 911, the car retains its original automatic transmission, an uncommon sight on these early 911s. Currently in a disassembled state with 0 miles since its last restoration (or lack thereof), it comes with the body shell, back window glass, and two boxes of assorted parts, providing a solid foundation for a dedicated enthusiast to embark on a bespoke build. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a desirable SWB 911T and restore it to its former glory.
