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) |

8- 10k for a 914 6 engine is pretty optimistic...unless the buyer has the tub assigned from the factory for it.
But who knows,as the value is in the buyers mind. Good luck with journey |

8- 10k for a 914 6 engine is pretty optimistic...unless the buyer has the tub assigned from the factory for it. But who knows,as the value is in the buyers mind. Good luck with journey Just based what Ive personally sold those parts for in the past year. Your going to get $2,500 if the Webers are in good shape and $500 for the 914-6 specific air box. I sold a core 914-6 engine for $4k, a 914-6 trans for $2k. Then there is the engine mount, transmission shift rod, couple other mis 914-6 specific parts. Add in heat exchangers and exhaust. $10k easy. Remember, when you look at the unloved 914-6/ 2.0 T engine. The case sells for a grand, the crank another $1k. Rods, Heads, oil pump, p&c's chain boxes, cam towers, cams, distributor, fan, shroud, alternator, alternator shroud, fiberglass shroud, pressure plate, flywheel, ect. Start buying these pieces separately and they add up quickly. Many people still want the right size engine in their car. |
