According to Hagerty's Valuation Tool a '73 concourse (Condition 1) 2.0 pegs out at $31K. Condition 2 cars (former concourse) peg out at roughly $23K.

If the documentation is there to authenticate that every nut & bolt is original or factory correct, then it's worth the money. Authentication starts with a COA, then certification from a bona fide Porsche authority or restorer, and then ownership history documentation. If the owner has ALL of that then the car is worth somewhere between $23k and $31K ... if any of that documentation is missing, it doesn't matter how flawless the car, it's currently only worth somewhere between $14K and $23K.

Granted, if someone's willing to pay $25K or more, great for the seller but that doesn't make the car a concourse car or worth the money paid for one.

eBay is being a real snatch about me trying to update my add. They won't let me change/add pictures and the vuvox isn't working right either...
I took the BIN to $25002 because the reserve is at $25001 and eBay won't let me change it. I also can't get in touch with the lone bidder which has me concerned.
I found a service receipt showing that my grandpa had taken it in in'10 to change seals/gaskets/lines and all necessary components due to "sitting" which was indicated on the service receipt. She starts up fine and goes true.
If you've got a smartphone and want a picture, send me your number and what you want a picture of and it's done. Or send me your e-mail. Extended to anyone who is interested in the 914 btw...
