1970 914-6... the car from my high school years.. has not been on the road since 1986. Stored inside all this time. all original parts as far as I know. have all the parts not seen in pics (carbs, carpets...) . Best offer over $20K takes it...I kept it all these years thinking one day I would be able to give it the restoration it deserved...not possible now!

Located in Western NY (near Rochester).
More pics available... send me a email and I can send you a linkAttached Image

I think it’s a steal at $20K.

It looks pretty rusty but with a 20k price there's a lot of room for repairs as long as all the original parts are there.

That's easy to think if you don't know the value of 914-6 parts. Just the metal sub dash is a $500-1000 piece. the core steering wheel is $600, the six specific rear shift rod $400, core trans, $1500, ect, ect. $20K in parta on that car besides the chassis.

Actuall, car is pretty solid...doors open and close well, no flex when I stand on the doorsill and bounce. I had a few 914's in my youth , a few "parts" cars... this is by far in better shape then it seems.

It was recommended to put the photo link here...so here goes

I personally think this a decent buy.. I would be in on this project if I were not so deep on my current build.

the additional pics also help shed some light on the overall condition of the project that one is starting with.

Good luck with the sale!

I don't want to refute any thoughts or comments here but the door gap and the hole in the long would concern me.

I think that it is lacking steel

Used to be a great 914 color, and someone should certainly restore it, but the time and money would put one over 100 k in this car to do it correctly
