I just got a lead on this car but I'm tapped out and can't bring another 914 home at the moment. If I do, I'll be living in it.
It's located here in SoCal ,Whittier area near 605 Fwy and Slauson Ave.
"No affiliation"
I google mapped address and you can clearly see it in driveway.
Anyone interested can PM for address. If a member buys it I can assist with moving it with my P hauler trailer. (within reason)
Let me know,
Oscar

UPDATE
I couldn't help myself. I stopped by and chatted with the owner. He is not interested in selling it at this time. He plans to fix it over time. It's a 74 with metal flares, 2.0 liter engine. Interior is rough. Has been in this state for 8 years...oh well.
I left him my number should he need parts down the road.
False call...sorry

Did you at least tell him about the World?

Oscar, once again you went the extra mile for the club. Thanks for the effort

Sir Oscar, that is a good news! If owner plan is selling it, for sure you will end up buying it!

Yes Sean I did. I gave him my number and wrote down reference web sites he should visit. He appeared reluctant to show me the car in detail and I respected that as I interrupted his dinner. I spent about 20 min there chatting
I offered to give him an extra outdoor car cover but he passed.
FYI..I sent address to TWO local members so let's see if it reappears.

Great job Oscar. I would stop by one weekend in a couple weeks, take the car cover, and see if you can chat him up again. Sometimes it takes a little time for people to work out the best thing when it appears. I would love a '74 2.0 with metal flares.
