Caption read “My lucky day. Just found in this barn not 1 but 2 sheets of OSB Plywood! 😎”, but what year is the Porsche? May as well finish out with other specifics…

Wow, hit the jackpot with that plywood!

I’m jealous for sure. In today’s economy that’s almost $90 depending on the region

It's OSB too which makes it even better

Only if it was mdf, wood make it really rare.
21
MDF is rare?

That's 3/4 OSB, which is currently like $70/sheet.

Mannn… a cool buck-forty
Could finally pay someone to get that Porsche the hell out of there

Pay me $70 and I’ll take care of the Porsche for you.

Von_Claussen, you’re also a wood expert?!!
We need to do that interview you agreed to!

911- 69 to 73 or 69 912.. if we had a side view mirror to see or view of the rear deckled we'd be able to narrow it down a bit more

What year is the plywood tho??!?!?!1??!?!
22
Inquiring minds want to know!
OSB’s integrity has a relatively short lifespan when exposed to elements, but given the degree of preservation in its stablemate there, we’d need on-premises forensics to tell for sure

lol I saw this post on r/carpentry and wondered the same thing
19
I read that subreddit as “car pantry” and expected people finding old cars in places like old stuff in the back of a pantry

In February 2020 we had a fire, but a shed near the building was untouched. Last week, my brother went in for the first time since then and also found two sheets of OSB. He sent me a photo and said “I’m rich”

Early first gen Urmodel 911 or 912, mid to late 60s, maybe early 70s.

My gut says it’s a 912, but you could always look on the deck lid.

I wanna say 1969 Porsche 912. But don’t take my word for it I’m not to sure.

1968 is my guess

Did you find it in a Facebook Porsche group? I think we saw the same post
2
I don’t know where it originated. Somebody sent it to me . I haven’t had a FB account for a bunch of years.

I have a buddy with 4 912's and 1 911 in this era. Im in awe when he rolls them out and fires them up. Crazy they are all pristine and have the neat plaid seat inserts.

Ohhhh yes haha very cool

Wow, not even close.

The long-hood Porsche 911s lasted until 1973, as the big-bumper, short-hood look came in 1974. That makes this an early 911/912.
Thanks! My favorite years, but I haven’t paid much attention since I was young so I didn’t remember if anything there pointed out anything else.
Thanks much
