The Secret 1960s Porsche 911 With Four Doors That Porsche Refused To Build

In 1967, Texas-based Porsche dealer William Dick envisioned a practical, four-door version of the iconic 911 S. After Porsche declined to manufacture such a model, Dick collaborated with renowned coachbuilders Troutman-Barnes to bring his vision to life. The project involved cutting two 911s in half and fusing them together with custom-fabricated center pillars and rear doors that opened suicide-style. This unique vehicle predates Porsche's official entry into the sedan market by decades, serving as a rare piece of automotive history that proved there was an appetite for a family-sized 911 long before the Taycan or Panamera existed.
