I am looking at a 914 in the Washington DC area and would be grateful for a fellow 914 enthusiast to have a close look.
Thanks in advance, John G

I saw this one when it popped up and thought it looked decent, but in person may tell a different tale.

This car probably has the sport package with the Mahle wheels and the real LE front spoiler (shown) and also front and rear sway bars. It was available in '75 as an option package

I am trying to get an address where the car is located. Thanks in advance to all

Seller claims it's a driver with little rust. Just what the doctor ordered so long as it's not a major project

Turns out, we WILL be in Alexandria today! If you can post or pm the address and a contact phone I’ll do my best. Have a Zambezi 74 1.8. Will you want/need the vin number?

Anybody? I could sweeten the pot. Does $100. do anything?

The example is 7 hours from home for me and do not wish to purchase sight unseen

Thanks

Online it looks ok, but as we all know .....

In the past I have bought sight unseen, but it's a big gamble.

Thanks again, the details are in your PM

Ben came through for me and spent close to an hour or more inspecting and test driving this example in Alexandria, VA. Also sent some decent pics of average problem (rust) areas.

Hats off to Ben and all the other 914 family members.

THANKS TO ALL, GLAD TO BE A PART OF THE MADNESS

Nice job Ben.

@930Cabman - not sure if you are the high bidder or what you are looking for in terms of running car/project, but there is a decent 73 up near Frederick MD being sold on ebay. The shop selling it has owned several 914s.
