I located a cache of 5 914s sitting outside in a field. The guy that owns them knows quite a bit about Porsches and is just starting to get out of them. There are 2 '71s, a '72, a '74, and a '75. I got all the VINs for the database.
All have engines. No 2.0L, though. He has titles for all the cars. All appear to be parts cars, except one of the '71s (the 5th picture down below). The color code was gone, but it appears to have originally been tangerine. No serious rust in either trunk. The doors opened surprisingly well. All the gaps looked good. Some hell hole rust. Needs rear pans, at least. No signs of accident damage. Comes with 1.7L engine with Dellorto carbs, and tail shift tranny. Not a lot of great parts on the cars. A few bumpers, door handles, mirrors, windshields, suspension. Lots of body rust. He wants $3,000 for all. Or $1,500 for the tangerine '71. What to do? Attached image(s) |

From what I've seen & read here on this forum, this looks like a gold mine- in England. Be nice to buy them up cheap & stash them inside someplace for the future. Since the vast majority of 914's came to the US we're going to control the 914 market in Europe someday, if not already.
