914World.com _ FS/WANTED: 914 Cars and Rollers _ FS 1976 Porsche 914-4
Posted by: mopar Jan 9 2011, 08:31 PM
This car has been in storage for the past 25 years. It is a completely original unrestored example of a 914-4 delivered to its original owner on 12-8-1975. The yellow exterior paint still shines but does show dings, scratches and some areas that need to be "touched up". The interior is tan and shows normal wear but it is still in very good to excellent condition. The gas and battery were removed prior to storage. The only rust on this car is on the surface of the battery shelf, it is still solid. Otherwise the car is rust free, the floor pans, rockers and suspension points are all solid. The original owner had front and rear sway bars installed. The glass, mouldings, rubber, bumpers, plastic and anodized surfaces are in excellent condition. The car needs someone that can dedicate the time to bring her back to life. The original owners manual is included and shows the las service was performed by Porsche/Audi in Macon Georgia on March 21, 1981. The car presently has 68,570 original miles. Please note that i am not in a hurry to part with this car.

More photos would be helpful. Has anyone tried to start it? Was anything done to "pickle" it when it was parked?

Geltlemen, It's in storage, haven’t tried to start it. If I go through the expense of removing it from storage, going through the brakes, etc.. and getting it started the price will go up.
Happy Hunting.

More pictures of the car would greatly help others considering the purchase of your car helpful, i.g. side, front, back, interior, engine, underneath, battery tray area. Sounds like a great car, would like to see more to make a decision to pursue further.

Still available.

Looks like it could be a very nice car. I think if you made the effort of getting it out of storage and doing some cleanup, you could get your original price and more. The original cars are bringing top dollar but the presentation is as important as the car itself if you want top dollar.

Mepstein,
I agree with you, after having a number of these cars through the years I know how hard it is to find them in good condition. I am too involved with work and racing my 914-6 to dedicate the time to this one. Oh, and then there is the 1973 911T project that I have not even started yet.
Posted by: URY914 Mar 10 2013, 08:31 PM
I have a trailer and can go get it if someone wants me to bring it up to Tampa or somewhere else in the southeast.

Who knows what the bars in the rear trunk are for?

Mepstein is correct, rear sway bar was added. The car also has a front sway bar.

Car is out of storage and yes the engine does turn over. Pulled gas tank and will be replacing the fuel lines. I will be pulling the fuel injectors soon. As soon as I have her running I will repost with new price.

Please feel free to contact me if anyone wants a closer inspection prior to installing the engine. The rockers were pulled off and the clamshells are solid.

So, is this car still available? I am in Daytona and could drive down to look at it if I had more info.
Bill.

Beware of over-spray.... The wood supporting the jacks has some yellow paint on it.
Both sides. Not saying the car isn't in good shape, but you're freshening up with new paint, yes?
Posted by: mopar May 12 2014, 06:06 AM
Mr.242, Are you a prospective buyer?
The engine and transmission was pulled so this was an excellent time to refresh the engine bay. The wood supporting the jacks are not part of the sale but they are negotiable. Have and currently service Porsches of all makes and models. I can tell you that the car is in excellent shape.
I would hope that before anyone on the forum purchases any automobile they would take the time to visit the vehicle and inspect it. I do understand that there are cases were the distance may be somewhat prohibitive or scheduling may be an obstacle. Recently a friend used the services of a gentlemen that travels around the country performing pre purchase inspections (PPI). My friend bought a 356 and I must say that once the car was delivered we found the description of the car to be accurate. If you are a buyer please send me a personal message and i would be glad to share the information with you. In this case the PPI was $1200.00.
Don't assume but do inspect what you expect.
