The time has come. . Another Concour year completed. . . I've showed this for the last 2 years and had great results. . . My enjoyment was in restoring this Six and showing it . . Now I want to move on to a new project. . .

Currently 22,537 miles on car, 401 miles since professional rotisserie restoration in 2011-2012 {fully documented}. Driven only for PCA shows / events and to sort out engine and trans. . Always trailered to events. . Consistent Full Concour 1st place class winner in all 2012 events. In 2013, I entered it in only 2 Zone 8 Concours and took BEST of SHOW both times, scoring 324.6 out of 325 points. This is a highest standards, no excuse vehicle. All number match, fresh engine and trans broken in and sorted out. Currently ready to compete in next years PCA Concour series.

Every level of detail was addressed, down to the fabric seat belt labels. . Originality was my goal, and the car shows it. My intentions were to show it in PCA Concours and be a reliable driver after a few years of shows. The original 2.0 engine was seeping, so it was split, the case halves surfaced and line bored. Total stock rebuild with E cams added, all new main and rod bearings, chains and tensioners, rings and a full valve job including new guides. All rotating parts balanced to within 1 gram/. . .The trans was also pulled apart for inspection, has all new syncros, and resealed. . Correct 14 x 5.5 inch Fuchs, spare rim looks like it has never been used.

Non stock items. . . . I wanted the car to also be fun driver in the future, so I put an SC suspension with 3.5 brakes on the front, with a 20mm front sway bar and a stock rear sway bar. . Konis in front with 19 mm torsion bars and Bilsteins in the rear with 160 pound springs. It handles exceptionally well with good balance front to rear. . . {I do have the OE Six suspension with 3 inch brakes restored and preserved.} Currently has an LE front spoiler and late real valance to clear the muffler. . . . Other than those items, I kept it visually as manufactured / delivered. Includes the Six toolkit, original owners manual in unused perfect condition and the OE passenger footrest. . . Original Blaupunkt works perfectly. Also has 911S 40IDA Webbers and Sport Muffler. Runs very well with the E cams. It also has a 1970's Dealer optional Nardi wheel, and I do have the OEM Six wheel. I have the original Factory Six air cleaner and all US light lens put away. Tires are current production.

Price. . . . . Please consider I've got right at $60k invested at this point. Additionally there are over 1600 hours of professional restoration labor [13 months labor] to make this a very nice car, certainly one that would be hard to duplicate to this level of Concour preparation. I'm asking $87. Located in San Diego since new.

$87? I'll take it. J/K as I know you mean $87K.

Very, very, very sweet looking 6er.

Toolguy,
Beautiful restoration and worth the asking price. I believe we are looking at the $$-future of 914-6's (and 4's). I know it's not in the price range for most, but you can't restore one for your asking price. Someone with deep pockets will purchase it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Hope it stays in the USA.

$87K may seem like a lot- believe me it is not. Once you start adding up all of the parts and labor that go into something this painstakingly perfect you will see that this is a very fair price. The person who buys this car will have a terrific car. GLWTS. I love this car.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That car will sell. Just need the right buyer so it might take time. Someone who wants a perfect car will see you can't build one today for that price. Great color, low miles, perfect condition, history, documented resto...awesome car.

Or...it could sell and go to the nearest port tomorrow... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge6.gif)

One of the most sorted and best documented 6's you're likely to find (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) GLWTS!

Hey guys, I think this 914-6 is under priced (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Breakdown Estimate.
$50,000.00 NOS Parts
$15,000.00 Rebuilt 6-Motor.
$20,000.00 Misc. Stuff you never plan for.
$100,000.00 2,000 manhours of Paint & Body work. Note Scotty does not work cheap. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Total $185,000.00 BTW: In the real world this is what a typical high end restoration costs.

As one going through a matching numbers "Six" right now, I can tell you, that you speak the truth..Doing it right is not cheap..

Awesome job!! The detail on that car is really nice to see, wish there were more pics of the car.
I'm going through a six as we speak, although not quite to that level, and it is not for the faint of heart!
I hope the cars stays here in the USA, but it will probably head back home.
