914World.com _ FS/WANTED: 914 Cars and Rollers _ SOLD: 1973 914 1.7L

Posted by: rmital Apr 7 2021, 03:06 PM

I'm helping a friend sell his car. He's not a member here, or from what I could tell, not a website forum kind of guy.

This 914 needs to find a home and get driven!
I haven't seen the car in about 5 years, it's been garage kept, pics below, more specific pics will be provided on demand....or if local, come see the car.

please PM me and I'll forward any request or contact info to owner.
or, if he provides me an email address I'll post that....

the car is located in Northern NJ, Bergen County.
asking price is $9,500

heard from in this order:
1. hockeymutt
2. manuelsantana
3. MCShack
4. PaulFVB
5. sf1
6. alexwassell
7. Michaelofgf

owner has been away (vacation) the last few days returning today, Sunday.
unfortunately it's supposed to rain heavily today. hopefully will still be able to get some good, requested/required pics of any rust and condition.

I'll post more pics from today below.

seller/Dave contact info/email = davemurraymaine@gmail.com
Please contact seller/Dave with any more pic requests or price negotiations.

of course, more detailed or closer pics would require more effort, like removing rockers....battery and ECU....back pad....etc.
- or, inspect in person!

list of those interested are listed in order in post above this one.

after all was said and done, Dave jumped in car and it started right up.
really sounded great....
rainy shitty day so now test drive; but, did know the last owner and he drove the crap outa the car, and it did very well.

I took a video for sound of car running. don't know how to post in thread, I think it needs to reside somewhere other than my hard drive.
if you know how to post video and/or what to hear, post instruction.

and, that's all I got today.

maybe facetime Dave if need to see more or have questions?
