Just a heads up, my car will be going on BaT on Wed. Check it out. Raby 2316, flared, nice solid car. Needs some interior work and a few little details, but solid rust free (not repaired) car that needs a new home. I am moving to a 911. I owned the car for 23 years and all receipts and history is documented with the car. Please bid if interested. Thanks!

Bring A Trailer. They have auctions that, IMO, are better than ebay because site members can comment on the car and ask questions.
I'll be curious to watch how this car does. It's not that dissimilar to mine. |

I had a few 914-6s on BaT back in the day before the Auctions started! Comments are retarded and can kill or boost a car! Wasn't a Fan of BaT gong to the Auction format - the Auction Idea seems to me to be ready for a Bubble Burst.

I dread reading the countless lame and worthless comments douchebags leave on BaT. I suppose once or twice someone may have asked question. All the keyboard cowboys are waiting.
BTW, beautiful car and GLWS |

I've read through alot of the comments on BAT cars. There's always a few keyboard turds, but all in all it seems to help a good car and hurt the lemons. Lots of questions on the ones I've read through.

Thanks, I was up in the air about Ebay. I have never been a fan. A guy I know suggested BaT, so I figured I will give it a shot. It has been on PCA and Rennlist for a while, but no buyers. I am hoping to get it in front of a lot more people. Kills me to sell it, but it is time to move on. I'll always have a soft spot for these cars. 31 years with one, it will be strange.

Great looking car and shows pride of ownership. Hopefully you do not get a case of seller's remorse. With air cooled 911's priced way to high, folks are looking more to 914's IMO. So good luck with selling.

That is a sweet looking car. I wish I had room in my garage. I also wish I didn't have the sado-masochistic need to build stuff myself and could instead just plop down the money for something and enjoy it. The fact that you've owned it for so long and "nursed it" for 23 years is also big. I hate seeing these things flipped or purchased by someone who just plays with them for a few months before trying to sell for more money. Good luck!

Thanks Guys, and I probably will, but it really needs to have a new home. Thanks Gary, hope you are enjoying your new car. I still want a 997!! I am okay with water cooled stuff. Got my wife a Cayenne GTS after saying it was sacrilegious, but it is a pretty awesome vehicle. Worthy of the emblem.

It was kicked around here about 2 years ago, Jake was looking at picking it up from me and selling it, so he put some feelers out. It was well received, but at the time no one seemed to be interested in spending the money. It ended up getting "Posted" to BaT, and there were some comments posted about the motor and Jake tried to talk about it, but the people commenting were not very well informed. It has changed a bit since then, added LED exterior lights and interior gauge lights from the guys on this site. I highly recommend them if anyone is on the fence. They make a huge difference. I also changed the roll bar and put in the stock seats again. A few other changes that I though would make it more appealing to the average purchaser. We will see. If it doesn't sell there, I may put it on eBay or post it officially here. I can tell you that the reserve for the car is much less than I asked previously, so if someone is at all interested in it, start bidding. If you get it for reserve, you get a steal of a deal. I just need to move on and I am not going to delay it any further for a few thousand dollars. Good luck, and feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Great looking car with the benefit of a Raby motor. I read through the comments. Some of those posters just have no clue at all. Nice listing and pictures. GLWTS.

Thanks for the kind words. Yep, I know, but I just need a few who do and they will know what they are looking at. I have gotten some good response, and I hope someone will step up and meet the reserve. They are going to get a great deal on a very well sorted and clean 914. Breaks my heart in a way, but it is time for me to move on for now. Maybe another in my retirement future. We will see. Cheers!
