A 76 silver 914/4 just crossed the stage at the Barrett Jackson auction. It looked pretty clean and had 48,615 miles. The hammer dropped at $23,000 plus the 10% auction fee.

The hood looks like it could use some adjustment around the headlights, but otherwise, a nice,clean car. I personally would like to see another $10.000 added to the final sales price. Of coarse, I would have fixed the exhaust too...

Hi George. I hope you're doing most well. If this car had been on your lot, what would you have priced it at?

Too much armor-all for my taste. Funny how a few years ago people would have been amazed at the high price for a bub car.

I'm in Phoenix to attend the Barrett Jackson auction. I have a video walk around of this car and the 75 that sold earlier in the day for $20,300. The silver 76 had rust issues and other problems that will be in the video. I'll post these this weekend. Ray

Ray makes a great point by his post, no matter what anyone says about a car and no matter how great the glossies look, it is of paramount importance to personally inspect an older car in the flesh before making a buying decision. The silver car looked good, but was obviously not good so probably sold for even more than it was really worth in the open market

We had a guy come into the shop who was pretty well versed with 911's. He has about 6 and recently purchased a 914. He was talking about his pristine car and having us do a 5 lug conversion. I pointed out his poorly repaired front end damage and all the body rot that was covered over by undercoating. He told me I must be mistaken since he had a very well know, high end classic car shop do the ppi before it was shipped to him. I pointed out a half dozen trouble spots and told him I could poke a hole with a screwdriver if he wanted proof but I wasn't going to fix the hole afterword. He left to find another shop to tell him what he wanted to hear.

We just did a new engine for a customer who bought a 911 on ebay. "ran when parked". Engine had a big hole in the case. He just laughed it off but "normal" people can't take that hit.

I can't believe how many people will send money before taking the time to do their homework.

Very shiny. Looking forward to the Video showcase. If the footage pans out we can ponder a $25k fixer. Very shiny...
