I am no Porsche expert although I have owned a few over the years. Ran across a 914 in a warehouse that is supposedly a 914/6. It has a 914/6 VIN stamped into the front right apron that looks factory (914043xXXX) The engine numbers match, trans numbers match and it has all of the 914/6 details that I could find like five bolt Fuchs, correct gauges, ignition, wiring harness, engine mounts, oil cooler, rear valance, etc. But the owner says he does not think it is a real 914/6 car. It has been in the warehouse for over 30 years and needs restoration but it is a very solid and straight car.
Engine is out as is the trans. The rear fuchs are a little wider than the fronts. The owner is asking me to make him an offer. So what I need to know is a. What is this car worth if it has ALL of the 914/6 stuff and it is NOT a real car?, and b. What would it be worth in this condition if it WAS a real car? Attached image(s) |

In the 47 years since these cars were made a lot could have happened to them. Worth checking it out in person. Who knows maybe it is legit despite a couple issues from the picture. Could be a decent car.
The only thing that would cause me to walk away from it, assuming the condition is as it appears in the photo for the entire car, is a VIN swap. I have no idea if that is the case here, and do NOT want to infer that is the case, just saying. Good luck. |
