914World.com _ FS/WANTED: 914 Cars and Rollers _ Just drove that white 914/6 3.0 L car in Newport

Went to go look at this under the theory that buying one complete is cheaper than building it, and it’s a ripsnorter of a car. The guy who owns it, Joe, is a good guy and he’s got a good history on the car. Engine and gearbox seem really healthy.
It’s too high adrenaline for me, at least as it’s currently set up, the Webers and the exhaust that are on it are a bit too aggressive for what I’m looking to build, but if you want something to wake you up and be aggressive with this might be a good one.

Isnt that car the one with a Salvage title though? I thought the original ad listed it as salvage...

My understanding is that it is a salvage title car, apparently there was a front hit back in the 90s that was repaired. The seller was completely straightforward about it when I stop by to see the car and helped me locate where the repair was done .

Looks like a nice car.. I am going to let you in on a little secret.. The reason I sold my last 914-6 was because it was loud with no heat.. That is why I started doing what I do now.. Creature comforts in my book are heat, and quiet mufflers..
Posted by: eric9144 Dec 3 2019, 02:01 PM
Bummer for the salvage title 
Otherwise I'd probably have been all over this one.
All of the other stuff could be addressed over time, but the title thing will always be a cloud that affects value.
Posted by: Justinp71 Dec 4 2019, 01:30 PM
If he has the stock CIS pistons in the car still you can convert it to CIS. Which isn't too hard but it will take finding a nice CIS system and some homework.
Also I think if you just put on a stock 911 air cleaner and one of Ben's new quiet mufflers it should tame it down quite a bit with some easy parts swapping.
I like it loud, when I went from CIS to webers I was in love...

Dont let the salvaged title scare you.
If you like it, buy it. Drive the hell out of it and enjoy.
Looks like a nice car to me.

I was considering this car however the salvage title turned me away. I think it is a good build and as the seller said, you will be hard-pressed to find a better canyon carver. But remember the car you buy today might be the car you have to sell in the future and that salvage title might be a black cloud. I have found salvage cars always have a story as to why they were salvaged.

$27,500 is cheap?
Posted by: Tdskip Dec 5 2019, 09:03 AM
I have no financial interest in this car, but I would suggest that asking and selling price may be significantly different with this one. I’d just pick up the phone and call him, seems like a good guy and I think he’s motivated .

For a good running conversion. Yes. Try to have one built for that price.

By no means am I questioning the sellers character, in fact I applaud him for disclosing that the car has salvage title, and I think we all know it is more cost-effective to find a complete car then it is to try to go out and do it on your own. if he’s motivated to sell he should put a motivated price. If somebody’s looking for a car like this and sees a price at $27,500 but only has a $22,000 budget chances are they’re going to say there’s too much of a spread and the seller won’t come down that low and will look elsewhere.

Its a $20k motor... Your getting a hell of a lot of car for 27500...
Conversion 6's are probably the best bang for the buck Porsches on the market.

I'm surprised it's still available.
Posted by: roblav1 Dec 5 2019, 05:35 PM
Agree... $27.5k is a good deal. I'm building one now and am way over that already. My engine alone is $25k.

I can attest to that, as well. Mine's not a conversion nor did it require major restoration, but the expenses racked up in a big hurry.

DITTO!!! The CIS will give you the gas mileage(?) but there is nothing like the sound of gasoline being fed into the venturies
Posted by: matthepcat Dec 10 2019, 11:10 AM
I would take off the carbs and run a megasquirt based ITB set up. No way would I go back to CIS. Somthing like this: https://www.x-faktory.com/store/c6/EFI.html

I have found salvage cars always have a story as to why they were salvaged.
I bought a used Cayman as a salvage title. It was hit in the front and the insurance company bought it. 60 k on the clock and for an 06 I've had more fun in it for the last two years.
I considered building a -6 for my 914 before I bought the Cayman. I got a stealer deal on the Cayman because of the title.
To build a car like this would cost twice as much as the asking price. The motor alone is over 20k.
If the ask is 27k and everything checks out that is a killer deal.
If I had space in my garage I'd get it.

Joe had a lot of nice cars over at his place. On to the 914-6 3.0 conversation. Work was done at Mario and dads shop in the San Fernando Valley. The body was not that bad from the front hit back in the day that made it a salvage Pink.
The car had an AC with its 2.0 and the condenser was removed and a piece of steel was welded in but not a replacement panel. The car looks pretty right in the front in the trunk and there are only some small gap difference in the front hood and flip up lights but not that bad.
The car has a Carrera front end and someone put vented disks on rear and spaced out the 914-4 rear calipers for ebrake that works fine. The car has Webbers 40s and at this time does nor idle well and needs some tuning but the car also did not have filters on the Webbers and it is very loud. That and the GT twin exhaust pipe in the center of rear of muffler. Very loud. No extra oil cooling but he has a GT engine lid that does not pop up because it has no springs on it.
The engine looks super clean from the bottom. Jo says it only has a couple of hundred miles on the Eng. and trans was just rebuilt and worked well. The throttle is not smooth at all and this make the car in this state hard to drive smooth. Car has 7in Fuchs all around and is lowered a bit and scrapes the tires when going down or up a driveway at slow speed. Rear lips are not rolled. Paint is older but very shinny and a nice body.
Steering wheel wiggles up and down a little and buy the way you have to yell to he heard by your passenger.
Headers not heat exchangers and as I said very loud.
My 6 at PMB better not be this loud or I will need to rethink it.
If a guy got it at the right price he could do a bit of work to it to get it very nice but way more than my buddie is looking for.

Thanks for the report - I have a loud 912 now so the wife would not like another one, haha. Still tempting but need to figure how much it will take to make it a good fun driver.

Note this is not my car. I just went down with a bud to CK it out.
On this car Oil cooling is a what looks like a stock on engine 911sc oil cooling. The oil cooler on the car looks super clean. They think only a couple of hundred miles on it. Look if the factory put up front extra oil cooling on 911scs I would do the same for this car. Some people run one in the rear like the one Tangerine racing sells, but he has set ups for the 4 and I am not sure he has a under rear trunk one for a six?
Ben has lines for front cooler and heat exchangers and mufflers.

On a sidenote it continues to amaze me how many people claim to be interested in buying a $25,000 plus car but can’t be bothered to read the description of what’s been provided including that both Bob and I have made clear it is not our car.
Posted by: thelogo Dec 14 2019, 03:50 PM
Without salvage title it would be sold .
That shit scares people off i think .
And by the time you re do the exausht and add a front cooler $$$
And add the correct non rubbing size wheels and tires
More $
And tuneing ??? Wtf . that cost money too
And not having it dialed in ( able to idle) etc
Is bad judgement on the sellers part .
That being said .... I love the car and would be a buyer at 20k . Because i would just want to drive the snot out of it not go the concourse route
There was a red conversion /6
3.2 that was asking 10k
Car didnt need much
Dont think it sold

"investment" buyers don't want a salvage title. Honestly, a 40+ year olfd car that hasn't had a tweak? Given that these cars were so cheap for so long, not suprised that an accident would have totaled it.. ie, its a $5K car when in an accident. Costs $3k to fix. Insurance decides to total/salvage it out. Not shocked.
Problem is many still want "investment" benefits, even if the car in question more than suits their needs.
As someone mentioned... this one would just be a case of buy low sell low, vs buy low, sell high. So what. Salvage means open season to flare out, cage, take racing, enjoy as is w/o fear of needing to insure for $100K.

Can't do a -6 conversion for that, it was a no brainer.

Posted by: burton73 Dec 19 2019, 05:47 PM
Here is a great chance to own and drive one of the greatest canyon carvers of all time. Professionally built by Marco at TLG auto, this 1973 914 with a large 6 cylinder SC motor screams thru the hills. Car has been indoors its whole life, and currently has a California salvage title from a front hit in the late 70's. SC motor has Weber 40's, and the 914 side shift gear box has about 250 miles since a full on rebuild. Real fuchs 16 inch - 5 bolt wheels at all 4 corners. Front suspension is from an 85 911 3.2 ltr and just received new pads, rotors, and rebuild calipers. Bilstein shocks at all 4 corners. Racing headers to a sport muffler with twin pipes out the back. Idles quietly but once on the pipe - with the howl of the intake and twin pipes out the back - it gets loud ! Brand new carpet kit and new seats. Originally a red car with a/c, painted white and still looks great. A few dime size rust bubbles around typical areas as the front windshield post, rear sail panels, and rear trunk. Rest of frame and floors are great with no issues. Professional detail already done by Jeff at Classy Cars in Newport Beach. A fantastic project car done by some of the top shops in southern California ready to go !!

What are the reasons NOT to buy this car?
I am seriously thinking about buying this car. Honestly, my biggest fear is that this is some rust bucket. I have owned two 914s before and both ended up being stealth rust buckets. Did anyone look at the Hell hole?
As far as the noise, what could be done to bring that under control?
I am fortunate to a have good friends who are air-cooled Porsche guys so I won't be totally alone, but I really don't want a project that requires that I rebuild the car from scrap. I don't care about the salvage title.

I visited the owners website, mentioned this car was sold.
Would have been a good deal even if you where just hunting for parts.

Wonder what it finally went for?

It's still for sale. I'm desperately trying not to buy it.

Think it is headed for BAT soon

I’d agree that Ben’s heat exchangers with a good muffler will help civilize the car (heat and defrost are good things), and EFI would tame any induction noise.

If I know it is for sale, I may buy it.
Drive it for awhile then swap the parts and place into my 74 when it is ready.

The car still appears to be available and is being advertised on “OfferUp”.

100% agree.. @http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=17736 has stock heat exchangers and one of my mufflers on his hot 2.7 with carbs.. I cant tell you how nice it drove.. Not intrusive at all.
This car just needs 3-5k to make really easy to drive..

Isn't it odd that it doesn't have air filters? Why would you run them without something? Seems like a recipe for a worn out motor.
