I am trying to figure a fair value 2 914 race cars. They both appear to been setup correctly and with high dollars spent on them. I hope there are some 914 gurus out there that can enlighten me on a price. Here are some pics and I hope this helps.
Thanks, Brad http://s263.photobucket.com/albums/ii152/M...002/914racecar/ |

If you are thinking about either of them, I would go with the red/silver/black car first as it seems to be a bit better made. I would ask the following questions:
- Do they have log books, if so read them carefully as they will show what has happened over the years. - How many hours on the engine and trans. Assume worst case and figure the engine will need an overhaul, expensive for a race engine. - Who did the work and are there any receipts or records. - What is the trans gearing, what clutch is in each. - Who maintained them when racing. - Where did they race and what sort of results did the cars have. I saw some inspection stickers on them so that means they have passed tech and should be good to go. - How old and what type are the belts? FIA labeled belts last longer before replacement. - What spares come with them. Things I don't really like are the puke tank in the driver's compt. The oil cooler in the pink car is mounted strange and if the air outlet is to be the normal vent inlet that is actually a very high pressure area so the cooler will not be real effective? Ask what the price is and let us know. |
