FS: '73 914 2.0, Southern California Car Options

[Willum]

This is a lifelong Southern California car and exhibits exceptional originality. I bought it from its original owner in May 2010. There is no rust other than the cosmetic surface variety common in these cars, no rust in the hell hole, original 2.0 engine has approximately 178,000 miles on it and was rebuilt to factory specifications at about 90,000, no significant oil leaks, runs and shifts well except for a minor 2nd gear syncro grind, tool kit including rare white handled screw driver is complete except for the 190mm tommy bar for the spark plug wrench, all original factory owner's manual and related documents, original window sticker, this car has a "salvaged" title due to a minor accident involving the left front fender approximately 20 years ago. The owner repurchased the car from the insurance company, had it repaired and kept it. At that time the car was repainted the original Bahia Red (L30E) since the factory paint was already over 20 years old, no other evidence of body work exists, tires are in good condition, at some point the original radio was replaced with a Pioneer am/fm/cd player, includes a custom fit California car cover. Shortly after I bought the car, my mechanic who is a certified Porsche technician, told me that working on the car is like working on a time capsule due to its condition and originality.

I have tried to be as straightforward as possible with the cars' condition, if there are any questions, don't hesitate to contact me. I am asking $11,500 cash only.

Bill -

If I ever find anything on that from my old files, then I'll post it on the Garage for all to use/see. DMV could have also discontinued it since I saw it. I can ask my body shop guy too, since he may have dealt with it at some point.

Unfortunately, I've had 2 computers' hard drives crash, so all my careful bookmarking was for naught! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

For now, your appraisal to come and the records and condition of the car should speak for itself!

.... regardless of this DMV & Insurance company scam called "salvage title" - since the insurance will total a car under "regular" insurance (i.e.: not agreed nor stated value) for as low as 25% of FMV!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Hope to see you in the OC on June 1 at our Concours!

Come to look around if nothing else, as there always a bunch of interesting P-cars on display & entered hailing from San Diego to Santa Barbara.

Then you can enjoy the rest of the day at the beach area with your wife/SO/GF or kid or ??

Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
