I am having to sell my baby due to medical bills. I bought this car from the 2nd owners 2 years ago. I have all records since 1978. The car is in great shape and still has all stock motor with fuel injection in tact. This car could be a daily driver for someone if needed...it is that dependable and runs great. I have all stock bumpers and steering wheel etc. if someone wanted to put this car back to the original style. The only rust the car had when I bought it was a little under the rockers as the car was garaged kept but the owners didn't clean out under the rockers. The rear trunk also had a little rust. I fixed any issues I found, the hell hole looked great but I relocated the battery to the trunk anyway and installed a Optima battery.
I painted the car when I got it and put on the fiberglass bumpers. Down the road I planned on taking everything out and putting it all back original but wanted to have some fun with it for now. Has just over 100K miles. Asking $6500 call Todd at 540-798-9006 if interested. The car is in Roanoke, VA. |

Car looks good Todd! Color changes can turn some buyers off, as well as departures from stock styling. It's one of those gray areas. The car may be worth it as is, to the right buyer. To some guys some of the less common colors, like copper, are more desireable.
If you want to sell to this crowd, you may have better luck posting more detail shots. We all know what a 914 looks like, buyers here want details like:the battery tray and below it (aka "the hell hole"), the longitudinals with the outer rockers off, jack points, floor pans, trunk floors, engine bay, and the funky stuff that a seller might not want to point out. I'm not suggesting you are hiding anything, but to sell a car here guys want to see it all. Good luck with the sale! |
