I am in deeper than i can handle, I have 4 914's. This one is on the chopping block.

1973 built in late 1972--- it was the 90th car off the assembly line and has the vinyl down the A pillars. A Cool VIN for sure.

I purchased it from a member here in OC, CA who owns a shop and it was stored inside for many years. It is straight, no accidents and that is one of the main reasons I bought it, November 4, 2022 during Covid.

Rust: A pillar bases where the vinyl covered near the cowl. Not bad, I have replacement metal for it. Battery tray-- I have one. Hell Hole limited to surface the longs are good! Driver side sail by door handle. I have the resto design repair panel to graft in. Doesnt need the whole panel, just cut and patch.

I paid $5500.00 for the car, not including the U haul and the DMV fees.

Title is Non Op (no back fees) in my name, clean non salvage.

I bought it with no engine or trans. Here is what I have:

Sourced a core motor and had European Motor Works do the case--aligned bored and oil galleys drilled and threaded.

Oil galley plug kit

AA Biral Cylinders and pistons- 96mm -- Barrington Engines (Santa clarita) did the ring gaps and balanced the flywheel and clutch pressure plate and fan assembly.

Web Cam straight cut and Helical cut gears (your choice)
Web Cam Lifters
Web Cam 86(a)
Counterweighted crank 71mm (I have the stock 2.0 crank and rods as well)
Chromoly H beam rods
Schadek Oil Pump full flow
Oil pressure relief piston LN Engineering
Oil Cooler stock
Billet oil pump cover
AA Heads CC'd for 9.5:1
Stainless fuel line
Engine mount and a crossbar
CNC LN Engineering pushrod spacers
Chromoly pushrods (LN Engineering)
1.7 rocker arms modified by Tabari Andrade to accept 911 swivel feet
911 Swivel feet
Coil, wires, tins
Door handles
GT Racing headers and muffler set
123 Ignition distributor
Oil temp sending unit (914 werke)
Cylinder head temp gauge and send unit
oil pressure, oil temp and voltmeter gauges
Porsche 911 front M calipers
Porsche 911 front struts with 5 lug hubs
914-6 rear 5 lug hubs
core seats covered with 914 Rubber Yellow Plaid kit
Side Shift Trans -- tested good and removed from another one of my cars.

Weber 44's Italian, or 40's Spanish (your choice) with manifolds--both rebuilt.
Bellcrank linkage for the carbs

I have a spare 2.0 engine that has brand new AA heads on it. Has a flat lifter or cam lobe. Runs and has 135 PSI compression all around.

Available is an extra side shift trans that has a billet intermediate plate.

There are other items too much to really list. (the shifter, axle shafts etc..)

I am in this more than 14,000 dollars at this point, I have reciepts for just about everything.

I am listing it here first for 12,500 which will include everything listed and some things not. I want it to go to a World Member and see it on a drive one day. If not, I will either have to assemble it running, or send to buildmyride.com.
