914World.com _ FS/WANTED: 914 Cars and Rollers _ FS: 1971 Porsche 914 - Make an Offer!

Posted by: ajshapi2 Nov 11 2019, 02:36 PM

I have owned this 1971 Porsche 914 since 2006. It was completely restored about eight years ago which included taking the body down to bare metal and tearing the motor down to the block. It has been driven less than 5000 miles since the restoration.This 914 is painted Dodge Viper "charcoal beige metallic". There is no visible rust and few blemishes in the paint. All lights work as they should, including the pop-up headlights.The interior is in great shape. The original black fabric covering the seats and center console is in pristine condition. The dashboard is un-cracked and there are wood accents around all the audio/climate controls. The 1.7L engine was completely rebuilt during the restoration. The standard battery was replaced with a gel cell that ensures a charge. This targa top Porsche would make a great addition to any collector's garage or to anyone looking for or a weekend toy. I am asking $18,000 OBO. Please call with any questions. 828-506-0350.

Hello; Is this the same car you had for sale near Bean Station TN a year or so ago?

Could you please post some pictures of the sail panels, specifically drivers side right behind and above the door handle? Thanks

Sorry for the late reply but it is the same car that was located in Bean Station. I have since relocated to central NC and have started trying to sell again.

There appears to be rust bubbles on the sail panel on the driver's side......that does not bode well for a car reportedly taken to bare metal and restored. I hope the seller can post in progress pictures showing the car stripped to metal, etc. Also it would be nice to see some photos of the car in good lighting showing the color and entire car. Receipts for the engine rebuild, other parts, etc. GLWTS.

All work was done by a local car club. I would be happy to schedule a test drive for interested parties.
