Hello from kent co. Maryland.
Dad is now 85, and is ready to part with his car. I am a motorcycle fanatic and have my hands full doing 1930's Harley restorations.

I listed his 914 in the classifides of this forum, but after trying to give accurate descriptions of very specific details, I realize I need to enlist someone with real experience to help me properly represent this car for sale and establish its value.

So, is there anyone near my area who is willing to give it a once over and come up with the answers we need?

Thanks
Steve and his Father in Kent co. MD.

Steve, this is Dustin, I sent you a couple emails.

From your ad, I was initially under the impression that this was a clean rust-free non-runner (which is what I'd be interested in). In which case, I think you're in the ballpark for an asking price. If you can get it reliably running with brakes that work, all mechanicals and electrical working, then honestly you should be asking up in the teens if there's no other issues.

But pictures are really going to tell the value. You need to spend an hour photographing every inch of the car, and loading the photos into an online folder (like one drive, photo bucket, etc). That'll give people who aren't near you the confidence to pay a higher asking price if the car really is in rust free and great condition.
