Best buy on the web on this rapidly appreciating classic and brought to you by
914 world headquarters. We know these cars!

We have been after this car for over two years! Very straight and runs really
great, we picked it up and drove it over 700 miles! When we got it back to the
shop we thoroughly checked it out and did a few things including check the
compression which is over 168 pounds per cylinder, and the car behaves like it
has great compression! It is very fast. We rebuilt the pedal cluster bled the
brakes checked all systems. The car has fresh oil and needs now, nothing mechanically
so depend on driving this home at any speed you can get away with!

The original owner even thought enough to convert the original transmission to side
shift so the very smooth scratch free shifting is superb! Notice also how perfect
the heat exchangers are so depend on hot heat

Even the emergency brake works properly! You will love driving this car. The interior
is very clean and although it needs a repaint the finish still shines enough to tolerate
as a driver. The bumpers as well are straight and nice along with the top seals.

Now the bad news: as you can see by the pictures this car was long ago damaged in
the front end and is a little crusty. The many many detailed pictures tell the story.
There is nothing that needs heavy rust repair, and even the battery tray as you can
see stands straight and true. Dr. 914 says that he would drive and enjoy the car
just as is and NEVER get into a restoration project with this one unless he just wants
to do it for fun!

Please do not hesitate to call for a detailed once around the car for any one who is
a serious buyer. We know this one will not last for long, so do not be disappointed,
make your deal today! We ship worldwide, and have a good deal to Germany or Belgium.
We also speak French German and Dutch (and Flemish) and Spanish for anyone of you who
only speak those languages!

The car has matching serial numbers on its engine - #6404124, built to 2.4 specs.
