I was hoping to enlist some help doing a valuation on one of my race cars. If willing please PM me and I’ll share all the specs and pictures. If you are in the Tampa area you can come see it and I’ll offer some type of compensation. It’s the blue one in the picture below, the orange one is a priceless 914-8. Attached Image

First off I'll say nice cars thumb3d.gif , I'm sure everyone here wants to know more about the /8. Please post a bunch pic's and give us the backstory on it.

I'd have your appraisal professionally done. The PCA usually has a list Porsche appraisers listed in the local chapter, yours is zone 12.

Thanks Mark for suggestion on valuation. My car was on display at PCNA in Atlanta for two years. Its shared displays with the Porsche Museum's 914-8 and Brutus. The picture I included was from a vault they have to store cars in waiting to be displayed. I have pictures of every inch of the 914-8. I posted several in the past, but the bizarre comments on this forum turned me off from posting more.
Thanks again,
Greg

TC lives in Tampa and he’s an expert. My cousin Julie and her husband Jeff own Lafluer Gymnastics and I do owe them a visit, but it won’t be soon.

I think Steve Gaglione is in Tampa area. smg914
He has an M471 so I'm sure he's had it appraised.

Please don't let bizarre comments of a few stop you from sharing the 914-8 pictures with the vast majority that will appreciate them.

I'll start adding a couple each day. You are right, why should the cool vast majority miss out due to a couple of negative people.

Note the front turn signals bulge up unlike any other 914s. The rear shot is of the transmission unique to the 914-8s.

Greg, thanks for posting. This is the kind of extraordinary content I hope to find when I log in but it rarely shows up

Great cars and thanks again.

Side note Greg; a friend of mine & factory employee ( Ludwigsburg) while on a visit to GA. noticed your blue car down in the vault many months ago. He totally liked your 914 , shared a pic with me of it and swore me to never posting any pics of it on media biggrin.gif
I told him that I've already seen the car on this site, that it is an amazing 914, etc, etc, but took the "Oath of secrecy" with him !! Please share your valuation with us here on World...our cars are notching upwards in value 4sure ¡
