FS: 1973 1.7 $5,500 & drive it home!, **SOLD, PENDING PMNT** Options

[RazorbackFan78]

Gentlemen - If I thought I had the time or money to continue working on this car I would keep it. But the last 2 years of IVF procedures have finally paid off and my wife and I are 15wks pregnant with IDENTICAL TWINS! So now it's time to sell some toys and payoff the voodoo doctors.

Anyway here's the scoop:
Bought it 4 years ago and I've invested roughly $4k into it with 90% of that work being completed by our very own celebrity mechanic Curt 'The CabinetMaker' Curtis! Details are below. Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or would like a specific picture.

Latest Pics from 12/31 <CLICK HERE>


-Complete engine rebuild with <100 miles on it - she's fiesty now!
-No leaks
-Pertronix Electronic Ignition
-All tin was blasted and repainted hi-temp
-Hellhole cutout and replaced
-Clutch wire tube reinforced at firewall
-Steelies Powder Coated last year
-Rear Brakes are PMB Rebuilt with <100 miles and Stainless Steel lines
-New upholstery on seats and backpad
-Fresh rubber on clutch, brake & gas pedals
-New rear window seal and butyl tape
-Sony Bluetooth Stereo w/ Infinity Tweeters In Doors
-EDIT: Stainless Steel Fuel Lines and the tank was pulled, tumbled & flushed

Additional parts/materials included but not installed:
-New Black Perlon Carpet Kit from 914rubber (edgebound and grommets)
-Rear Bearings (currently in the freezer)
-New TPS Board
-Upgraded speaker pods with 6" Infinity Kappa Speakers
-Kicker Hideway 8" Subwoofer
-Porsche Brake Reflector

Work in Progress Items:
This summer I had removed all the tar and sealant from the floorpans and discovered three minor holes where the pans connect below the door and rear firewall. I could go ahead and patch it, seal it soundproof etc and put the new carpet in but I've decided to let the next owner finish that out on their own. But's structurally safe and i'd drive it anywhere as-is.

Next on my list would've been to replace all the rubber seals surrounding windows, windshield and targa. It's fine as-is but I wouldn't drive it in the rain...which most of you don't anyway.

That's it in a nutshell. I feel like most of the hard work and "typical 914" repairs and upgrades have been done. All it needs now is a bit of rubber, some minor body work and paint to be a great car for years to come!!!

Thanks for looking!

Is it still fuel injected, how are the heat exchangers?
