i owned a 1966 coupe for 2 years, then i traded it for a 1971 example. All that back in 1995-1999. Great memories indeed. I seem to recall a problem with temp, when it was hot outside, or when they were driven for over an hour without stop. Still though one had to spent a lot of money on them as they would need a visit to the garage very often! Its sad you dont see them around any more...
I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Porsche vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carbs and tank clean and rustfree
still runs great here to, but have you ever got a nocking sound when it is around 90 degrees celcius running idle? if i let it run on idle for 4-5 min it goes away, the sound differs a little bit when i engage the clutch, but never really goes away.
Great video! My two older brothers had also a 850 sport coupe - in exact the same colour green (model 1969 and 1971). By the way: did you know one called this car "the poor men's Ferrari?" (because Bertone designed it). It is very nice to see this car in action in this video.
mine was "jaune positiano" = "yellow positiano"

Great film. I've just sold my 1969 850 Sport, I had it for 3 years. This brought back how nice a car they are. Now I want another one!!
