If anyone is interested this is about 35 minutes from my house. I was thinking about checking it out on Saturday. Weird mirrors, but looks very original. If the dealer says it has some rust it may be an issue and the passanger door on the pic looks like a different color but it may just be the picture. Look at the other cars they have, seems odd to have a 914-6. I wonder if they just priced it on bluebook and ebay and have no idea what it is.

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif) not a $15k car but it is a 6 according to the vin 9140432156 (156 one made in 1970 in I read the vin correctly) Also I have seen photos of 914's from 1970 with those mirrors, IIRC mainly in Eroupe (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

If that's rust poking through from the inside of the front fenders you can bet that's only the begining, bring a camera and report back.

It is #2156. Could easily be a $12K car if the rust isn't too bad, based on recent sales I am aware of. Certainly worth a look.

That would be the 2,156th car in 1970. If not, mine is a 69. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)

Otherwise, (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/agree.gif)

non-moveable pass-seat, early style dash, /6 steering colum (911), /6 center console, period correct /6 wheels with hubcaps, /6 VIN number ...
pretty sure it's the real deal.

mirrors are ugly, but those can be replaced (and sold for $$$ on ebay!) ...
looks like a nice project, just what i need right now.

you got all that from that one picture? i am impressed ...

the mirrors are period-correct but the fender-mount thing was only really popular (perhaps even mandated) in Japan.

that's just up the 476 from me - what time do you want to meet up there Saturday?

Those mirrors were highly popular in the '70s....racing mirrors as the bullet nose shape (supposedly) stabilized the glass from wind vibration at speed.

That's the MA car that William Harris went and looked at last year. We had this discussion Mr. Chambers... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

That be no 15k car (unless someone writes a check for it). Waaaaaaayyyyyy too much rust. Someone find the thread... I can't remember and of the title content. Maybe William will chime in here (if he's not still trying to cram 10lbs of wiring harness through a 5lb hole) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Lots of rust people... lots. It needs $3-4k worth of metal work and when that's done you'll want to slap a $5-6k paint job on it.

Like I said, $12 IF it doesn't have too much rust. Guess it does!

Eric: Ida is home, 2305 miles, never missed a beat. Consumed only 2 quarts of oil. Averaged 25 mpg with lots of 80-90 mph chasing the lead foot 914's from WA and the Audi S4 from Saskatchewan. Great road trip.

If she had on the 195/50 shoes it was about 115. Still faster than I want to go.

Small world isn't it? Eric you are right, that is the car I looked at last summer. The body of this car does have serious rust issues. Definitely would need a passenger side fender and was suspect in the door jams as well. Original owner was a very nice fellow, didn't know much about maintenance and had spent really big bucks at a local dealership (not even a Porsche dealer (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif) ) to try to sort out the car. I would not run well enough for a test drive when I saw it. Eric: I have installed the entire wiring harness and man - pulling it all through the J boot was a religious experience. I wired in the tail lights last night. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

i've installed 3 main harnesses now and never had to fiddle with the J-Boot ...
