FS: 71 914 1.7 Gemini Blue, $6,500 Options

[ndfrigi]

Selling my friend’s (member here) 71 1.7 Gemini Blue (L96E) 1.7 single carb.

Previous owner installed a megasquirt on a 1.7 engine (not original engine for this car) until my friend have to rebuilt the engine (German Auto) last year. We tried installing back the megasquirt but the original program of the megasquirt was erased. Currently, it has new single carb and runs well (maybe some more adjustment needed since this car was not really being driven by my friend because he has another 74 with 2056 engine.

Done to the car since 2014.
1. Rebuilt 1.7 engine by German Auto (see attached receipt)
2. Replaced the passenger side suspension console with new piece from Restoration Design.
3. Replaced original tunnel fuel lines to SS fuel lines (2 lines since it supposed to run megasquirt) and engine bay SS fuel line. SS fuel return line was temporarily plugged since it has a single carb now.
4. New cockpit floor carpet.
5. Wrapped steering wheel
6. Passenger seat cushion re-upholstered from 914rubber seat upholstery kit. Other new upholstery kit included on the sale.

Status of the car from previous owner before 2014 purchased. This car has front 911 style sway bar. Suspension is solid and better handling on the road.
Front 916 style fiberglass bumper
Transmission converted from tail shift to side shift already.
Pedrini wheels with 205x65 tires
Rear cockpit floor was replace with new metal.


Please watch 3 youtube videos attached (cold start after 2 weeks seating, engine sound and a quick drive.

The car is a running car and can be driven anywhere as-is. Yes a project car or DIY project for the new owner while enjoying driving it.
External paint is okay for a 15 ft distance. Passenger side mirror has no glass now. May need alignment since rear passenger suspension was replace. But seems straight and drives well.

Update: Alignment done Oct. 09 by Precision Alignment in Downey.
Last week fuel regulator replaced.

Price $6,500
