Hello; This comming Saturday in Middlesboro KY a 1972 914 will be sold in an estate sale. It is suppose to have a 1.7 engine. No title, but is so rusted that it will only be a parts car anyway. Has an extra engine, a 1975 1.8 and 5 speed transaxle.
Hard to tell if any bits are usefull. I have known of this car sitting in a yard for maybe 20+ years. It is located at 607 Dorchester Ave. middlesboro, KY. Auction will start at 10:01 AM saturday november 15th. Tires are flat and rotted. likely that the brakes are rusted tight and probably will not roll. I looked at it and it is very very rusted. No idea if anything can be used from it at all? I am open for opinions on what it might be worth as a parts car? I do not have a 914 at this time so probably will not bid on it. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) Hello; Thanks. Back in the 1980's I bought a wrecked 914 for the engine and transaxle. I wound up cutting it in half. I posted about this car because it may have a few good parts and it would be a shame to have them discarded. |
