The car was picked up by my uncle at the factory (then driven around Europe for several months). Webmeister: As part of the 60 Years in America Celebration, Porsche encouraged owners of cars spanning 12 model ranges to enter their cars for a shot at earning the ‘oldest’ designation originally delivered to America for their respective car model . Steve's was found to be the earliest know 912 delivered to America; he writes "In early 1965, my uncle ordered a 356. When 356 production ended, he was asked to switch the order to a 912. So this early 912 has a 3-gauge, yellow-painted dashboard in the 356 tradition. He took delivery during an extended family tour of Europe (June 1965). I was there too, aged 2-1/2."

C-P	6402	115 ML	Mike Lawrence	Kentucky	USA	It's cool. Now Red, used for Touring.

The car was later shipped to the US from Belgium in 1966, that is where I think the discrepancy in the date of manufacture began. The car's not perfect but the engine & the rest of the car is still very original runs good & is fun to drive (also seems to turn a lot of heads).
