I wonder if that 2nd 914 is Tinkergineering's project. Haven't heard anything out of them for awhile. The '70 model has side vents?????

The car's a classic with truly innovative engineering. Either that, or the world is coming to an end.

I rest my case!

Each photo is worse than the one before!

From a fairly well-known dealer none the less. (BHCC must have rejected it) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Well, it didn’t fold up on the lift. Must be solid, right?

Yep, I think TK's car is red, and in a lot better shape. It sold for $1125 so she (or her Dad) may have grabbed it for the motor & controller at a steal of a price.

Speaking of BHCC: Original 914-6
I'm not sure there is enough solid metal left to hold the VIN tag, but it can be yours for $35k. But check out the creative exhaust manifolds. Rusty heat exchangers? No, problem, replace them with these light weight, high performance log style manifolds.

The foil tape along the bottom of the windshield is a nice touch.

That's so sad. Somebody in the family went MIA. What's the engine worth?

I don't see what you're talking about in that second listing, but no 914 had side vents.

They look like the 75-77 "Thermal Reactors". Wonder if this could have an engine swap with the not-well-thought-of 2.7 engine?
