Putting a hold on this listing pending talks that may result in a sale.
After an encouraging PPI by Jeff Gamroth, I bought 9140431482 in 2020. The seller’s advertisement was very positive. Before being shipped across country to me, I had Rothsport perform work totaling $11,766 on the car. Now, well into retirement, I don’t have time, resources, or motivation to deal with fixing ‘1482. Resources, especially time is / are now way too precious. As described and shown in my Garage thread: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=368857 and in the 2020 advert link I bought it from: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...&hl=Genuine Sold as is, where is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Driven only 376 miles on dry pavement during my ownership. Complete running driving car before starting work last October to address recurring carb debris problems, then SS braid fuel line leak, and then exploring rust issues. Carbs cleaned and reinstalled, but remainder of fuel system is not installed. And while moving the 914/6 in the garage to keep the tires from becoming flat spotted, the engine was accidentally turned backward (According to Jeff Gamroth in conversation on 6/5/24, it’s not a problem as I originally thought.) In addition to the work done by Rothsport before my receipt, other work performed during my ownership (while not trying to complete reinstallation after rebuilding my ‘66 Corvette’s rear end; ‘1482 and the Corvette are garaged 60+ miles apart): new spark plugs, air filter elements, parking brake adjustment, rear caliper venting clearances checked & adjusted, removed spiral groove in gas tank outlet fitting sealing surface (like this from factory?), electric short in license light diagnosed & repaired, RF turn signal bucket replaced to restore function, low / high beam headlight malfunction repaired, Tangerine parking brake handle spring kit installed, all exterior lighting (except maybe license light?) changed over to LED’s, under dash wiring changed to isolate fog light operation from low beams, installed wiring & switch for hidden fuel pump shutoff, steering wheel shown in 2020 advert plus 380mm thick wrap (by Dallas Custom Steering Wheel) Porsche wheel included. New carb cross shaft bearing brackets included. Tangerine Racing shift linkage included but not installed. Gates Barricade fuel hose & F.I. clamps to complete fuel line installation included. Other misc included but not installed: 3rd brake light and strobe unit. Car is due for oil change and new brake fluid, the steering column mast jacket’s broken & held on with duct tape, and a clip’s missing from the LR caliper venting adjustment shaft. Clear NC title in my name in hand. Selling with my word of honor; no disappointments or surprises. PM if interested. |
