Set the vcrs for this one. That is a great event with some awesome cars, all with equally awesome prices. A 75? Whats up with that, extremely low miles maybe?

The ad says it has a 911 rear suspension? Whats up with that

Thanks for the heads up on the auction, I didn't realize it was this week.

It'll be interesting to see if & what that car sells for.
It doesn't look all that great and $16k in receipts, most 6 cyl race cars
surpassed that quickly, I know I have, and my body isn't done!

I'm sure the ad was writtein by some NON-Porsche guy (911 rear suspension) It appears to be very clean. I end up with 13k-15k in the cars I build (4cyl track cars)

I can't find the results for this car at all.

I searched the Auction results from this auction as well as past auctions.

I did find this though, in 2001 an 75 914 converted to a Ginther-style street version sold for $7500.

For some reason it looks like they didn't auction it at Barrett. It's on e-bay now! Check it out...

Since the car was auctioned at BJ with "No Reserve", I'm guessing that the car did sell there. And, if that is the case, it probably sold at a very low price. Since there is no reserve on the eBay auction, the buyer probably decided that he could just "flip" it on eBay and make a few quick bucks.

I agree with the comment about Amy Sparks.

I serched the results of the BJ action I don't think the 914 was shown or bid.

I looked it up on there site, it was listed as item 28 which should have put on the dock on thursday, They did nat have any prices for sales so I couldn't tell if it sold

I checked auction results, I don't think that it made it to BJ it is on ebay.
