Looks like an A/C car, too.

It always breaks my heart to see that a 914 has suffered treatment like this.

Ripe for your next rustoration and I won't give you any grief if you do an EV conversion on this one.

you are a funny guy.

i just checked our 1.8 research.
this poor old thing is a gold nugget from the past in terms of locating the elusive moment porsche changed to the engine bay charcoal can in 914s.
we now have it bang on either side of the weekend 17/18 Nov 1973.

thanks for posting those images up @http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=12094

Hey, that's at least a $10,000 car if listed on eBay by Beverly Hills.

Same here. Just think - someone was really excited the day they picked that up.

I bet that ECU still works!

only a nuclear strike would kill it?

The body doesn´t look too bad rustwise.
Would make a good candidate for a full resto???

Greater net cost+years to complete+really unhappy significant other= not such a good deal.

Posted by: StarBear Jun 29 2022, 12:01 PM

Any idea where it’s located?
