Hi everyone. I have for sale a very clean car, with only ~106,000 miles. Some parts have been pulled (more on this below) and will need to be replaced to be road-going again. All pretty simple stuff. This would be a great deal for someone with a parts/donor vehicle (and who among us doesn't have at least one of those, right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ). Or maybe your project is stalled, on jackstands...this would get you on the road, in style, fast and easy.

1971 1.7
Super clean!
Clean & clear title
$3,400 with side-shift conversion pieces, including transmission!
$2,800 w/o the side-shift goodies and minus seats/backpad/door panels


Please look over the info/pix below and CALL me with any questions: 971-506-2500.

Car is in great shape, with good paint that only needs minor attention.

Motor is tight and strong...and SO CLEAN you can eat off of it!

Transmission is in great shape as well.

And it's rigged to tow a light trailer - kewl!


I bought the car at the end of '08 from a local enthusiast who had bought it off eBay the year before. The eBay listing archive (with all the info that I know, as I don't have receipts) is here:

This is how the car sits NOW. Windshield has been removed, too, in preparation for replacing the dash (which is badly cracked). Speaking of windshield, it is a new replacement, so it's clean, clear, and free of pitting. I swapped the wheels and tires w/ another local 914 person - tires that are on car now are new, with just a few hundred miles on them.

As you can see, bumpers, rockers, spoiler, lenses, and other items that don't go toward matching the Minichamps build have been pulled (and long sold).

The car will need an exhaust system, as it came with a dual, quad-tip system that is not as the Minichamps car (this exhaust is the one heading to Buttercup (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ). Additionally, the previous owner (the one who showed the car), ruined a perfectly good pair of SSI heat exchangers by drilling carefully-spaced holes all over the heat clams, for looks! I suppose with the spoiler, it shouldn't come as a surprise!

The main thing that I would address is the floorpans. The same DAPO opted to replace the orignals with a flat sheet of metal. Perhaps he was repairing rust (though the car doesn't show any sign of rust elsewhere except the rear trunk)...or perhaps he was, once again, modding the car for "show." I can't say. And I suppose the new owner really wouldn't need to replace the floors with proper pans from Restoration Design...but I think that should be done. It's only $290:
