So I've finally come to the realization that I need to clear out my massive hoard. Every time I go behind my shop I end up looking around for a while and then walk away looking like (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) . Also, due to my job and a new baby I've decided that I'll never have the time to spend cleaning, advertising, and showing the massive amount of items that I've collected, so I've decided that I'm going to have a one day Estate Auction Type sale instead in the hopes of moving most if not all of it.
I'm thinking about setting the date of the sale for late May to late July 2017 and what I'd like to do is get some feedback from everyone over the next few weeks to see what dates would be convenient for you. Also, for those of you that can't attend I may add an online proxy-type bid, but that will depend on the feedback I receive. Please reply to this post with a date when you could attend an estate sale (May, June, or July) along with if you can attend in person or only via an online sale. Also please note if you'd be interested in a car, parts, or both. Please plan on the sale to be located in the Inland Empire area of Southern California with an open house style viewing the weekend before the sale and 3-4 hours before the actual day of the sale. Sale Items: 20 Cars in total (Rollers from $400-$1500, Shells from $50-$100) 15 Rollers & 5 Shells (All 1970-76 914-4 models including): - LE Creamsicle - Flared cars - 5 Lug cars - EV car (Electric Conversion with electric motor & trans) - Sepia brown paint code car Parts: This list and the qty's will need to be finalized but will most likely contain the below plus some extras: - F & R Bumpers (about 30+ chrome & painted from 1970-74 cars) - Bumper rubber tops - Heat exchangers (1.7 & 2.0, about 20 sets) - 911 and 914-6 front suspensions (front struts, rotors, calipers ASM) - Rear struts/suspensions arms - Mufflers (factory & aftermarket) - Valances (F & R) - Rocker Panels - Center consoles - Engine lids - Interior parts (Back pads, speaker enclosures, door pulls, etc) - Glass (including rear window defrosters) - Transmissions - Engines (TBD) - A/C systems - Doors - Gas tanks - Wheels - Engine lids - Pedal ASMs - Luggage rack Please note that I will be watching this post and will update it with more photos and details as I have time (although limited (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) ). Also please don't contact me with requests to view or purchase anything before the sale. I want to keep this fair for everyone and don't want to have anyone feel that they've missed out on something due to preferential treatment. Thanks, Mike Attached thumbnail(s) |

I appreciate all the replies and from the feedback I'm going to plan to set the tentative date for Saturday, June 24th. As stated in the original post I am unfortunately extremely busy with a new baby and a vehicle model launch at work and therefore don't have much "home" time to show cars and parts every weekend from now til then. Therefore please don't take my lack of response to multiple pms requesting to view items in advance as an insult.
I also want to remind everyone that to keep this fair for all and to keep my sanity I am not going to reply to any request to purchase things in advance, so again please don't contact me behind the scenes in hopes of making a deal. My plan will be to begin to photograph and list each item online as I have time so everyone clearly knows what is what in advance, I will then plan to make everything available for viewing in person a week prior to and 3-4 hours before the auction. I will also plan to have online bidding available for all those that can't attend. The online bidding will likely be setup to end at midnight the night BEFORE the day of the sale. To answer a few questions that I've received: The LE is the white car in the pic, this is the 2nd car going from left to right. This car has been listed in the 914LE registry and was confirmed to have original orange rocker panels. I do not have a COA from Porsche on this car. The Sepia brown car is not one of the 5 lug cars, it still has the stock 4 lug hubs. This is the 14th car going from left to right. The EV car is the black car, 3rd car going from left to right. This car currently has a DC motor and trans in it. This DC motor can be clocked to handle 36-144 volts. The flared car is the one with the silver hood, it has 5 lug wheels on it and is the 7th car going from left to right. With my current schedule this will take me a few months to coordinate so please be patient. More details to come..... |
