First shown as the 901 prototype at the 1963 Geneva Show, the 911 quickly built on the Porsche legend established by the 356 models. A process of continuous evolution has kept the 911 fresh for nearly 40 years, while impeccable build quality has ensured that most of even the very earliest cars have survived as desirable and usable classics. Faetures: The second book in THE definitive 911 (and 912) reference library. The author received full co-operation from Porsche. Full year-by-year, model-by-model coverage, including all limited editions. Includes rare prototype photographs. International markets covered in great detail. Well over 200 contemporary pictures, mostly in color. Includes contemporary advertising and sales brochure material.

Very good reference!,

This review is from: Porsche 911: 1971-1977 (Hardcover)
Brian Long did a really good job in getting all the info and pictures for these 911 series books. If you can, get the 63-71 book also. For those who wants every detail and tech specs of 911E,S, and L's, you won't be disappointed. Throw in the RSR's and Turbo's in this book, there's nothing better. There's tons of pictures never seen in other books. The Bentley Publishing books can't even come to par with all the info in this book.
