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) |

Run. As for King G, he always says that about his shit yard, and puts it up for sale, and nobody buys it.
Dont consider the transmissions worth much. It looks like they have been loving the ground. Insides likely crusted, outsides likely eroded. Its been a loooooong time since I parted a 914 so I have no idea about the prices of things, but I do remember the labor to part and sell and that sucks unless you are dedicated. Maybe someone here can scoop them up and pay a finders fee or something. There are good guys here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
