Wayne, why the heck are you selling?

Posted by: tat2dphreak May 15 2010, 10:10 PM

responded via PM....

but just for the record, I'm not selling due to anything with the car... just the squishy bit that sits in the driver seat.

Posted by: LowGT May 16 2010, 10:39 PM

I saw this on craigslist and that it was your car. Good luck with the sale.

Posted by: hot_shoe914 May 17 2010, 02:40 AM

what are you going ti drive ti MUSR 11? I'm gonna tell Bill & Clay to kick your ass!

Posted by: tat2dphreak May 17 2010, 07:02 AM

I'm just trying to simplify my life, get my affairs in order and such. I'm sure later in life I'll have another one...

Dan, we should get together for a drive before I sell it...

if I am off on the price, lmk. 8500 is approx what I put into the car in the past year(including the 5 lug parts), so I started there..

Posted by: zymurgist May 18 2010, 11:21 AM

Looks like a nice ride.

Posted by: RobW May 19 2010, 10:38 AM

That's a beautiful motor and the 2056 is the way to go...

Good luck with the sale but I hope you change your mind..

Posted by: tat2dphreak May 19 2010, 11:51 AM

you guys are too kind. thank you.

I'm not selling because anyone's dying, or for financial reasons or divorce... I have stretched myself thin to do everything to the car I possibly could. but now, I look to the future and I see other things, besides the car that need my attention..., and I know it needs a paint job(paint is probably a 6/10) and seals. and after that, I still personally wouldn't get enough use out of it... I have enjoyed every minute, and I'm sure I'll have another one day. but for me right now, managing 3 cars is too much, esp when one never gets driven.. I'll probably find myself a fun daily driver once all the dust settles and my wife's car is paid for.

this way someone actually gets to have a lot of fun with this car, which is what I wanted all along... I had fun doing, learning and driving it. now someone else can.

Posted by: tat2dphreak May 20 2010, 08:02 AM

it was asked, so I'm updating the ad... I'll sell the 5 lug parts with boxster rims and tires(michelins with about 90% left on front, 70% on rear) separately for $1500 obo, leaving the car for 7000 obo without the 5 lug parts... you can still have the smooth, primed targa top, and I have a few more parts and tools I won't need so they can go with the car too

today is a good example of why I'm selling... this morning was 80, clear skies... telling me DRIVE...

but my back, friday traffic and my allergies said... take the car with A/C...

914 outvoted 3-2

Posted by: tat2dphreak May 28 2010, 10:20 AM

BTW, I finished rebuilding the brembo brakes and mounting them on the 911 struts yesterday, the 5 lug conversion is now just a bolt on and go... and you'd still have the PMB rebuilt stock brakes if you ever wanted to fall back to 4 lugs.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 7 2010, 08:22 AM

ok guys, I'm going to have to make a move sooner than expected. some new developments have come up and this is not just a pre-emptive strike anymore. if you are interested send me an offer/PM, and I'll try not to let the emotions of what I've put into the car interfere with making a sale.

Posted by: r_towle Jun 13 2010, 05:35 PM

I am confused by the pictures.

If I was interested in the 5 bolt setup, what is included?
Can you post some pics of the whole setup please.

Rich

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 13 2010, 07:15 PM

sure, I'll take some pics of the 5 lug part...

it's 73 911 struts (blasted and re-painted)
new rotors,
new bearings, studs, spacers(22mm),
the brembo brakes, with new porterfield pads
rear hubs, with a set of new rear bearings, new rear rotors drilled for 5 lug
4 boxster wheels (2 16x7, 2- 16x6) with Michelin tires... the rears have a little life, and will probably pass inspection, the fronts are practically new.

the front struts, rotors brakes are all assembled and would just be a bolt-in.

I'll take some pics and post them here for you though.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 13 2010, 09:11 PM

one more thing, price lowered to $7500 for everything.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 15 2010, 12:48 PM

pics of the 5 lug stuff... sorry the pics aren't the best, I was in a hurry,

I can get some better pics of something if you have any questions.

lmk if interested guys, I'd much rather a 914 lover get the car than some random person off CL.

Posted by: spare time toys Jun 21 2010, 12:18 PM

Good luck with the sale. If life had not popped up and bit me in the ass I would zip over and snap this up.

Posted by: zymurgist Jun 21 2010, 01:02 PM

I'd consider the 5-lug parts, but I bet it would be expensive to get them to the east coast.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 21 2010, 01:47 PM

I've thought of that too... only thing I can think is I can take it to the fedex freight place downtown, put the wheels and everything on a pallet, shrink wrap it, and ship it that way... my guess would be about $200 though... damn struts with the rotors and everything alone is heavy... then wheels and tires... 200 is a guess

I shipped 2 wheels not long ago(and not by freight rates, which is cheaper) and the 2 wheels in an 18x18x18 box the shipping was $45... shipping a 2.0 engine from michigan to tx was $300 IIRC, and I wouldn't be surprised if these parts would weigh more then an engine.... I'd try to work with whoever was interested though

I understand. if it weren't for life's biting, I probably wouldn't be selling... or if I was driving it more...

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 21 2010, 01:50 PM

quick note.,.. the blue tape on the studs is because I painted the hubs with clear paint after bead blasting them...

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jun 29 2010, 06:03 PM

while I was outside I snapped a quick film of the car running...

the car hadn't been started in a couple weeks, but fired right up.

I looked at this car this weekend (550 mile roundtrip). It is in good shape and is worth the money if you're looking for a good car that won't need a lot of work on it. IMHO.

Sorry you're selling Wayne. I know you put a lot of love (money) into the car. Keep online and in touch. If you want to go to MUSR, we'll find you a spot.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jul 22 2010, 10:18 AM

yea, I wouldn't have thought I'd be selling so soon, but it's the right thing to do for me...

I'm still going to hang out here, and at wes' shop. and I'll have another 94 again one day.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Jul 29 2010, 07:02 AM

getting tired of the CL buyers not knowing what a 914 even is, and being disappointed that it doesn't have heated seats and a/c...

a 911 front end (either the early M struts or the later SC struts) and the properly done 5 lug rear hubs with GOOD brakes like the brembos or boxsters for 3.5" bolt spacing. for wheel choices try to choose wheels that don't need a lot of spacers, imo... the boxster wheels are are a great way to get good, 16" rims for not a lot of dough.

Posted by: hot_shoe914 Oct 9 2010, 10:29 PM

I told everybody not to buy your car until AFTER the MUSR11, that way you can hop in that bucket of bolts and come party on the Dragon with us. Now pack yer bags and get ready to roll!

Posted by: tat2dphreak Oct 10 2010, 08:36 PM

well, I'll be travelling the rest of the month, so I still won't make MUSR11, someone may as well buy it so the car can at least see an event soon....

Posted by: badmiata Oct 16 2010, 10:05 AM

Honest bump for a car that I wish I had the money for!! If you ever need someone to store and take care of it let me know, I'll clean out my garage!

Posted by: tat2dphreak Oct 19 2010, 09:14 PM

cmon guys, when I get back to 'Big D' I want to get the sale done while the weather is gorgeous! you will not find another 914 that needs nothing mechanical, for this price.

Posted by: 914 shifter Oct 23 2010, 01:34 AM

does your car have the tail, or side shifter?

Posted by: tat2dphreak Oct 23 2010, 05:01 AM

It's a side shifter, all new bushings, shifts great

Posted by: Gint Feb 17 2011, 07:31 PM

Sweet! I rented a Mustang 'vert on a winter trip to FL a few years back. I told Shar that if I lived in FL or SoCal I could tool around in one for a DD.

Posted by: tat2dphreak Feb 17 2011, 07:44 PM

it's a great car, and great fun. the new chassis is so stiff, and makes the car feel light. the new engine with 300+ horses is just great! and it's been in the 70s every day this week I drove the GT coupe, too...

the 5.0 is amazing. so fast!! but for me, the vert was the way to go... I gladly gave up the other 100 horses to "settle" for 310... to get the vert.

a GT vert was just way too $$$
