Would love to see more pics, but kinda cool.
Surprised this car has never come up here, or anywhere else I can think of. Like the color and stance a lot, and that's one way to increase serviceability. Wonder if the "engineering" and build quality (and lack of rust) are as stated. If so, $14k ask seems awfully reasonable given what good 914 projects go for, and I suspect GT bumpers/valances, five-lug Fuchs, a bit of brightwork around the targa bar, rear scoop/spoiler delete, and a period interior would transform this build. |

That’s so stinking cool. Wish there was photos of the mechanics behind that bonnet.
The only thing I don’t like is that air scoop. |

QUOTE And tilting the rear as in the photo does not look like great access. Right,, should have hinged it at the Targa bar...front edge.. |

Open the doors, there is nothing left in the way.
It must have a real frame for that setup. |

It's actually hinged the right way—just needs a better hinge setup that lifts and swings so the clamshell is 90° or near it.
If I was game to build a tube-frame 914, I'd way rather do something like this than the usual setups. Pretty neat—but it would only make sense to me in fiberglass or carbon fiber. |

14K asking,
Very difficult to replicate at that low cost, a ~350 sbc powered GeeTee..Oh! ' Built in 1976 by mechanical engineer from Electric Boat in Groton, Ct. Custom tube chassis ' Should sell in minutes, as it is rust free. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

He has got several active ads. Some really cool/interesting. Some WTF?! the 914 is decidedly on the cool side.
