It's time to sell my '75, and I've delayed long enough. I've put a ton of parts into the car, and have corresponding receipts. It has stock L-jet fuel injection that runs decently and returns good economy. The current yellow paint is in fair shape and shines. The original L95K (metallic green) paint is still visible in the engine compartment and around the fuel tank. The dash and interior are in excellent condition. The door gaps look good, and the body is straight. The car is currently licensed and inspected in Texas, and is driven regularly.
The Hell Hole and and corresponding area upon the driver's side are strong and solid, but the car has two patches of rust upon the firewall and a pinhole in the rear trunk. The rest of the body is solid and well preserved. These issues are fixable, but I do not have the time or proper space to complete the repairs. New tires and a front end alignment will be needed soon. I can provide pictures of the damaged areas upon request. It's too dark to take them now. I am asking $4,000 or best offer. I take cash or cashier's checks for local pickup, and will take PayPal from buyers elsewhere. The buyer will pay shipping if the buyer is unable to pick up the car. Please post a response if you are interested. ![]() ![]() |

Hi, my name is Russ Quinn and I am the fellow that purchased the 914 from Steven. I wanted to take a minute to thank Steven for all his help during this process and to express my sincere thanks to all of the other members for their input.
I have been around Porsches for a long time but mainly with 911 and 356 vintage, historical, and current race cars. I wanted to find a nice starter Porsche for my son who now works with a Porsche race team. I was searching all the sites I could think of and I came across 914 World. It was the best thing that has happened for me in this search. I received help from members even though I was "New" and had the "Lurker" status. I found Steven's ad it looked to be just what I was searching for. I contacted Steven by PM and later by phone to discuss a possible deal. All I can say is that I was and still am very impressed with Steven's demeanor, judgement, character, integrity, and just being the kind of person you can both talk to and make a "hand shake" deal with. He completely described the car correctly and included parts, books, and information that he did not have to. I just wanted to let the 914 World community knows how I feel about this young man. It gave me a sense that while there seems to be many people out looking to just take advantage of anyone, there really are people in this world with great integrity. I received the car on Monday of this week and I cannot be happier!! It is everything Steven said it was and maybe more. Thank you again Steven for being a very nice person. I only wish that there more of you out in the world. I wish and you family nothing but best now and in the future. Good luck with the new house!! Sincerely, Russ Quinn |

Who'd a thunk it 2 Guys named Russ fighting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chair.gif) over the same car. Congrats Russ (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Thanks Scott, new to this site and maybe a little old for all this computer stuff but I'm trying. It was a great experience dealing with Stephen and I am thrilled with the car. I don't know how to introduce myself to the general membership yet but I'm sure I'll get some help thanks! Russ Q |
