FS 1974 914 2.0 (4cyl), 1974 914 2.0 for d\sale - green, mostly original Options

[Green1974914]

1974 Porsche 914 2.0

4 cylinder 2.0 liter
good condition

Stainless steel exhaust
all original except the wheels

The car has not been started in a about a year. Low vision is forcing the sale.

The car still has the original fuel injection. The engine has never been rebuilt. It was still very strong the last time it was run.

Originally a Texas car, I am the third owner and I have had it for over 25 years. It has never been driven in winter in Connecticut.

The fuel pump has been reloated to the front compartment, closer to the fuel tank, to avoid vapor lock in the Texas heat.

The original owner was hit is a parking lot in the left rear quarter. In 1974, the lacquer used in that repair, on the quarter panel and the rear deck lid, was not as good as the original, so it is greyed and cracked. There is a small patch of rust inside the rear truck, probably related to that repair.

The battery box is very rusted. The battery was apparently punctured and it destroyed the battery tray during just before the transort to Connecticut.

There is a small dent on the front of the car.

The original owner put the "bumper strips" along he sides. I have always planned to take them off, but I never repainted the car.

The interior is fair. There is a small crack in the dash, no center cushion and the sun visors need to be reinstalled.

I have the original steering wheel, spare tire and jack and several spare parts.

Please post a price

^^^ This. And, a lot more pix. All sides, interior, inside of both trunks, engine compartment, etc.

Looks decent from the one pic, but much more is needed to evaluate the car.

As said above, you must post a price. This isn't eBay.

Beautiful looking car. Without posting more photos you're not going to get a whole lot of traction.

Small world...I just joined this forum and found this listing.

I may have been the original owner of this vehicle.

Mine was Z Green with a luggage rack and had been hit where indicated while parked.

Adding more photos. I was asking $10,500 on Craigslist. Please make an offer if you are interested. I do prefer to find a buyer who knows what he or she is buying.

[Green1974914]

Still more pictures.

I apologize for the typos in the original post. As I said, vision loss is making me sell. It also impacts my typing, which is not helped by auto-correct in many cases.

I will try to be more responsive to posts here.

............$10.5 maybe what someone who does NOT know what they are buying with all that rust would be preferrred (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) ?

With that much rust I'm afraid you're really off target on the price. How's the rust under the battery tray and on the passenger side suspension consol? We're all rooting for you, but as 914 friends it's our duty to give one another reality checks. No offense meant. Ask questions - we know what we're talking about here or at least pretend to
