I have a few too many 914s and it's time to send one off to a new home. I did a bunch of work to this 914, and it's pretty much ready for paint. It's a 1973 chassis which was originally Marathon Blue Metallic. The car was flared with steel flares by me. A little bit of rust repair and I started collecting parts for a five lug conversion. The car will come on 4-lug steel wheel rollers.
The value of this car is in the parts: Steel GT Flares $1000 Flare installation $2500 15x7 and 15x8 Fuchs $700 (tires are gone) 78 911SC Front Struts complete $450 5-lug Drilled 914 rears with rotors $300 Dino steering wheel $50 Stripped paint $1500 Complete, solid 914 in boxes $1500 Total: $8300 Asking $6000, or make me an offer. I will sell the chassis without the five lug parts for less. I'm not looking to sell the five lug parts before the chassis at this time. $4000 without the five lug stuff. Not pictured but included are: both bumpers (painted) both valences painted gold-ish gas tank engine lid windshield SC calipers Attached image(s) |

Had a couple tire kickers. No firm bites yet. Is it yours? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

Yep....it's mine....couldn't resist Jeff Well I wanted it, but a few things had to fall in line for it to happen, they didn't, so I'll have to pass. Nice solid base for a steel flared project though. Jeff |

Okay... metalwork will be complete tomorrow.
Next week body work starts and the price starts going up as the chassis gets nicer and nicer. |
