I am no Porsche expert although I have owned a few over the years. Ran across a 914 in a warehouse that is supposedly a 914/6. It has a 914/6 VIN stamped into the front right apron that looks factory (914043xXXX) The engine numbers match, trans numbers match and it has all of the 914/6 details that I could find like five bolt Fuchs, correct gauges, ignition, wiring harness, engine mounts, oil cooler, rear valance, etc. But the owner says he does not think it is a real 914/6 car. It has been in the warehouse for over 30 years and needs restoration but it is a very solid and straight car.
Engine is out as is the trans. The rear fuchs are a little wider than the fronts. The owner is asking me to make him an offer. So what I need to know is a. What is this car worth if it has ALL of the 914/6 stuff and it is NOT a real car?, and b. What would it be worth in this condition if it WAS a real car? Attached image(s)

That is a 6 case type number. Not sure about the tranny stampings but the six did not come originally with a side shift although the original tail shift could have been converted.
Look at all the people following this thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Lots of people interested in that engine serial number I am sure!! Good luck |

Look at all the people following this thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) Lots of people interested in that engine serial number I am sure!! Good luck I have given my word that I will not release any numbers from this car. It has always been my position that that information is not mine to give like someone else's social security number or a hot girls phone number. I have appreciated that nobody has asked. The Engine number codes out to be a correct early USA Engine code for a 1970 914/6. The VIN to the car does NOT appear in any registry, so if you were hoping this might be your engine, sorry, not likely as it has been sitting in this warehouse for about 30 years. If anyone has a specific VIN for their car and want to ask I will give you a yes or no answer. On the side shift, thing, I misspoke and it is the bracketry for the throttle linkage from what I was told. Attached image(s)
