914World.com _ FS/WANTED: 914 Cars and Rollers _ One of the Best!
Posted by: carr914 Mar 25 2017, 06:09 PM
I took my car to a Swap Meet today and as kinda a joke I put it in the For Sale section knowing that I would get a good parking space... Well I have several people interested @ $35,000. Well that never Happened! 
Before I sell I sell it to a total stranger, I know there are people here that know & lust after this car.
This is a very low mileage, beautiful car.
However the car is Up For sale! It is the Current Car of the Month (if they ever Post it 
)
I may be in for a geographical move and can't move 2 cars much less Four!
I'm willing to sell this GREAT Example for $23,000!

$35k - I would sell it to someone who called it a Fiat.

That is a beautiful car - wish it were in my garage. Good luck if you let it go.

I'm not familiar with this car. What makes it worth $35K....is it a 6 conversion?

TC you always have very nice cars. You get them and fix them up, enjoy them for a little while and let them go to a new caregiver.
I hope your rebuild on you knee works out well.

That is a terrific car. I wish it was in my garage! Someone is going to get a really nice car.

It's a 2.0 - according to all the Records, it has never been opened up. On one of the Repairs sheets it has a Dyno number with a crazy number that I dismissed since the car had been converted to Carbs. However it is The Strongest 914 2.0 motor outside of a high-strung race motor that I have driven.
It has Weber Carbs. The Car will come with a Fuel Injection System that I bought from a fellow member here. I would put it at about 90% complete by looking at it.

as a Sidenote, if possible I would like to sell the car in the next month. As sometime in September I will be getting my Knee Replaced and quite frankly will not be able to get around very well ( much less getting in & out of a 914). So while I will not give the car away, it will be a good deal for the Buyer!
I've thought this through a bit more. If I truly want to sell it in the next few weeks, I can't put a Price that may be her worth, but not what will sell. So there is a $5k Drop. If that doesn't move it, it will never get sold

It has Weber Carbs - I think the linkage that is the limiter. If the right Buyer shows up, I might buy a Tangerine Linkage and put it in the deal. The Car will come with a Fuel Injection System that I bought from a fellow member here. I would put it at about 90% complete by looking at it.

My Buddy at Cars & Coffee was more technically challenged than most, so that Video didn't make it, so I took another one in my garage. You will see the Buzzer still works when the door is open, it starts right up (and always does), idles nice. Runs like a Champ!

Please PM me your phone number or email.I have a friend that is very interested. Thanks

Good luck! My father-in-law (~65) had his knee replaced last year and is now looking forward to doing the other knee --he is much more active. That said, he was miserable from the pain and life disruption for almost six months... not an easy path back.
