914World.com _ FS/WANTED: 914 Cars and Rollers _ 1975 914 For Sale

Posted by: Norski914 Oct 15 2019, 11:22 AM

I’m looking to sell my 914 after 22 years of fun and a few headaches. I asking $9500. This car is not a show car but is a sharp and enjoyable weekend driver. I have owned the car for 22 years. It runs ok but could use some TLC from someone with more ambition and skill.


1999 Brad Mayeur reinforcement kit for rear suspension and longitudinals. Also additional body pan reinforcement.
2004 Purchase 2.0L engine and rebuilt it with ESB 2.1L pistons and cylinders, Tuttles rebuilt heads, new clutch, lightened flywheel buy 2 lbs. Sand blasted and repainted engine sheet metal. New brake pads, rotors, and 911 master cylinder.
2006 Purchased and installed rebuilt transmission from Brad Mayeur.
2007 Purchased and installed front sway bar.
2008 Installed rebuilt transmission.
2017 Minor body and paint repairs. Complete tune up at Brad Mayeur’s shop.
2018 Replaced passengers side suspension console.
A few notes:

In my 22 years the car has only been in the rain once. The car has headers and no heat exchangers for driver compartment heat. Heater blowers are intact but much of the heat venting tubing is not. The heating system has never been used in my ownership.

Pics of the engine would help. If everything is as nice as the outside this looks like a good deal.

I agree that driving a 914 in the rain is the best part, if you get my drift.

Nice looking 914 there.

Yikes . . .
I'm always amazed to see how people support these little cars or lift them by the engine mount.

Bruce, the engine mount bar is the strongest and most stable way to get these cars in the air. Plus it is the most convenient. In 48 years, I've probably lifted more than 2000 914's this way. Never had a problem. Were you thinking of a chassis with a rusted engine mount console? Brad Mayeur

Hi Brad,

No, actually the crossbar to the "piece in the hole" for lack of a better term is not a problem. But that plate that it is attached to, is only held in place by two very small bolts. Essentially, you are lifting the weight of the back end of the car by those 4 very small bolts, two on each side. I've seen them broken before and would hate to see that happen on a lift.

Bruce

WOW you miss it after ONLY a few months, usually it takes years to miss a favorite car. I am so sorry you sold it.
