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!

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.

A $20K vin plate. Sorry the project got away from you. Good luck with the sale. 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 https://photos.app.goo.gl/G1w3XYKX7pbUZrF69 |

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! |
