Beautiful car - I guess it's all about timing. Just purchased a 71 4 cylinder about a month ago. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Hi MR. Beautiful -6! Could you please address a few questions:

1. No mention of engine oil cooling ... what is there?
2. Sway bar(s)?
3. Does the transaxle have limited slip?
4. Brake master cylinder? Original or upgrade?


Updated answer:
I looked under the car yesterday and didn't see a rear sway bar. The front sway bar has been upgraded, judging by the anodized drop link hardware. Unfortunately, I can't tell you what's in there.

I also just realized the dyno report I originally pasted in the ad above was from the PPI I had done when I purchased the car, NOT from after the restoration was completed, new cams, etc. That has been fixed and the correct dyno report is now displayed.

Upper entry shown is from the original PPI. Lower entry is post-resto. Same shop ran both tests. Sorry for the mixup.

I imagine Mountainroads may chime in too ...

Full payment has been sent to the seller, and I anticipate the receipt of the car title in the very near future. Arrangements for pickup and transport of the car to Rothsport for some work are imminent.

And very significantly, Mountainroads is a “straight shooter”. A very helpful and understanding seller in consummating a transaction in difficult times.

I look forward to experiencing this amazing 914-6.

Rufus beat me to it. Haven't checked in for a while because I wanted to let all the dust settle before announcing that car has been sold. Thanks to all for the interest, feedback/suggestions, and honest questions that were asked.

In the spirit of mutual admiration, Rufus has been a pleasure to deal with to the point that I feel I have a new friend and kindred spirit. As long as he never again asks me to talk to FedEx (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thanks for your words of encouragement.

Jeff Gamroth did the PPI for me. His detailed inspection is best summarized by his first thought in the brief text he sent after completing the inspection ... “Car is bitchin”

Thank you too, for your kind words, Cairo. Although I love the mostly stock character of this car, I have a small list of changes / enhancements under consideration. Ideas from the 914World contingent are welcome too. I’ll share my plan as soon as Jeff and I finalize it.

Because this 914-6 already "ticks many boxes" for me, about the only thing planned beside addressing some normal / routine maintenance items is adding some oil cooling under the rear trunk ... summers in N.C. are kinda long and hot (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) .
