Looking for a stolen 1971 black 914 - FOUND - FOUND !, - Vin #4712906567 Options

[budk]

Just wanted to update this posting - The 914 (along with a 78 Beetle) were found at a salvage yard and someone was arrested and charged. The titles had also been stolen and forged so the salvage yard presumably thought they were buying from the owner.

Unfortunately, there were 8 other cars stolen that have not yet turned up. This car is now back in the possession of the estate. I don't know what they plan to do with yet.

Thanks for keeping your eyes open.

I know this is a long shot but I am trying to help a friend find a black 1971 914 (Vin #4712906567) that was stolen on Febuary 10, 2017 from W 47th st in Cleveland, OH. It was stolen along with a few other cars. According to neighbors the cars were hauled away by a tow truck but of course no one knows the name of the towing company.

Police have been unable to turn up any meaningful info. At this point it is more important to find out who did it rather than actually finding the car, however finding the car would be a bonus.

I don't know what the condition of the car was or any other details or pics. I searched the forum's database but the car is not registered on 914world.

If you know or see/hear anything please PM me.

Thanks. Bud

Awful news. Sorry to hear.

Pics of the car or even a complete description of the car (wheels? bumpers? distinctive mods or damage?) would go a long, long way. After this many years, no (or very few) two 914s look truly alike.
