Hello

I am selling a car from my collection that is not going to get the attention it deserves.

1970 914-6 Vin 9140431957

This car was Purchased in the US and brought to Europe in the early 70's where it competed in many races throughout Europe. Details are scarce on races/results. While the car was in Germany it had factory flares installed to GT spec. Sometime in the late 70's the car was returned to the US by it's original owner where it continued to compete. At this point it was being used for club level races at some of the best tracks on the east coast. Sebring, Lime Rock, Watkins Glen etc.

Car has Virginia title and is road legal! The 2nd owner would drive this car to local hill climb events. Log books with the car are SVRA and PCA.

Engine and transmission have approx 15 hrs since last refresh.Log books seem to confirm this. Body is in very good condition with no signs of damage history. Rust free and ready to run. Paint could use a few touch ups here and there but overall very solid top to bottom.Car needs a few small details such as a new roof latch and cosmetically some of the wires on the front firewall have paint on them. Paint wise I call it a 10 footer. Mechanically the car is race ready or could easily be used for cars and coffee events.

Thanks Cal,
The car is solid and I have been going back and forth on keeping it.
I currently picked up a 74 Carrera race car that needs my attention and I know
this car will sit in the corner until that car is on track!

When you say, real 914-6, are you saying this car has a 914 VIN?

Posted by: Fubawu Feb 17 2016, 04:13 PM

Yes it is a 914-6 chassis

Amazing. Put it on Bring a Trailer, maybe?

Posted by: Fubawu Feb 18 2016, 07:09 AM

I've had a ton of interest so far. Maybe I priced it too low?
Anyways if it doesn't sell in the next couple days I might try another
auction site.

Cheers

You priced it for a very quick sale. I dont think it will last the weekend if even the rest of the day.

Original 6- values have been going sky high, however modified 6's are near where they used to be. Race history brings this one back up. It might be a good idea to stop the sale and put it for auction. You might be surprised what it goes to.

All the best
