A Texas Sized Project - 1975 2.0L, 12/8/20 - Wiring & Interior Update Options

[aggiezig]

Hi 914World,

New(ish) member with new project - a 1975 2.0L. It's certainly a project, but I think it's a great starting place. The seller is extremely knowledgeable about the car and helpful with local contacts who are in the 914 scene. It's been on the local CL for a while for more than I wanted to pay, but was recently able to strike a deal. Here are some specs about the project:

• "Rust Free" car with the only rust being on the surface of cleaned metal
• Hell-hole looks very clean
• All original glass, bumpers, interior, suspension, rims, etc. are included
• 901 "side shift" transmission has been taken apart, inspected, and rebuilt
• Lowered hard mounts for drivetrain
• There are some spares included as well (doors, top, misc. / etc.)

The engine is the gem of this purchase in my opinion. Here are the details:

2055cc "build" project in pieces currently (with matching numbers)

• All balanced / clearance as necessary by H&H in Dallas
• 96mm Pistons / Cylinders
• 9.0:1 compression ratio
• 3-angle valve job on 2.0 Heads
• Iskenderian Cams #485128 Grind #VP-228
• Claude's Buggies' Lightened Lifters
• Lightened Flywheel
• Custom High RPM Cooling Fan
• Rotating assembly has been coated with polymer or ceramic coatings by Polymer Dynamics in Houston

I've put down a deposit to hold and will be picking up on Monday. I'll post pictures as soon as I can. Plans are for a mostly stock rebuild with an attempt to retain as much value as possible.

Looking forward to this one!
