This is a really cute 1972 914 Porsche for sale by private female owner in 27101. $15,000.00. Green/black. Chrome is in excellent condition.
Runs very well & turns on a dime this car is ready to be driven. It is so much fun to drive I really hate to sell. Cosmetically It is great from 5 feet; re sprayed in 2008 interior is like new 10 years of service history. recent tuneup and conversion To electronic ignition. Webbers. Shifts well through all 5 gears. Was a garaged Florida car. Very good tires and brakes. Targa top was recently re-fiberglassed and painted to fix cracks. Reason for sale is owner is now having difficulty getting out of this car or any other low to the ground sports car. She hates to admit it, but she is aging! Lowball offers are unacceptable. It's already priced low because I'm ready to sell now Problems: just a few items I've yet to fix: a tiny ding, missing seat adjustment knob,non functioning odometer, parking brake cable, windshield washer. Shown by appointment only.[b][size=4][font=Arial Black] |

Location and angle of spark plug wire seems to indicate a 1.7 or 1.8 head/engine.

Location and angle of spark plug wire seems to indicate a 1.7 or 1.8 head/engine. Mechanic in FL and local NC (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Mechanic agree that it is a 2.0 based on engine number Parking brake cables have been replaced and the odometer gear just arrived so it will be fixed soon. Car is now on display at Americas Auto Mart in Winston-Salem, NChttp://www.americasautomartnc.com//newandusedcars.aspx?ClearAll=1&TypeIDList=1%2c2%2c3%2c4%2c5%2c6%2c7%2c8%2c9%2c10%2c20%2c28%2c46%2c49%2c63%2c65%2c64%2c66&%7e Attached thumbnail(s) |

Your picture shows a vertical spark plug wire which indicates 1.7 or 1.8 heads. Just sayin. |
