Same old story. Boy falls for project with "potential"....finally has to admit he will never have time to complete it.
Orphan project looking for good home. Truly great platform for dream project. NO surprises! 1973 SBC V8 Conversion. Everything done to date was with the intention of keeping the vehicle forever. i.e. front wheel wells have individual vent holes drilled and champhered rather than the standard chop job. Lots of cool stuff: As close to NO RUST as you will find in a 914. ZERO RUST in longs or hell hole. Sheridan racing body kit SBC 350 engine with AFR 180 heads. Renegade conversion parts. new 750 cfm spread bore carb new headers 901 transaxel with 1st gear blocked off new rennshifter new tangering racing shift bushings, shift bar, linkage, and precision shift adjuster and clutch pulley adapter shifts better than any 914 I have driven. new corbeau racing seats NO rips or cracks in dash Autopower rollbar with crossbracing Ron Davis aluminum radiator boxed rear trailing arms reinforced chassis Aluminum American racing wheels (look like wide fuchs) 6 point simpson harnesses New closed cell optima battery 911 5 lug hubs 911 front suspension new elephant racing rear bronze bushings weltmeister front swaybar bilsteins all four corners 911 "S" front calipers 911 rear calipers including working parking brake set up New 23mm mastercylinder Quick release 3 spoke racing wheel GT engine lid Powdercoated fuel tank SS fuel and brake lines new mallory cap, wires, and plugs I have +/- $10K invested to date. List needed to complete. 1) replace engine gaskets 2) replace caliper o-ring (only other side was leaking initially and I foolishly only replaced that o-ring) 3) tires and alignment 4) paint 5) rubber Current tags and registration. Car is VERY fast and runs and shifts well but will need to be towed due to old tires, engine oil leak (Local mechanic recommends removing engine and replacing all gaskets) and front caliper leak (have new s-caliper o-ring). Located in Calistoga California 94515 First person to show up with $6000 and a trailer can take her home. |
