I have seen a lot of interest in the Eagle GT kit cars and I just happen to own one.

It is a 1975 914 1.8l that runs and drives great!

I have done some custom work on the suspension. The front end is from a 911E and so are the rear hubs. This gives 5 lug wheels all around. And the wheels fit just right to give it that beefy, road-gripping look.

I love the car but I may sell it if I get the right offer.

"Testing the waters" means you don't want to sell unless someone offers way too much money for it.

Advice: 912 suspension is not desirable. call it a 5 lug conversion. a 1.8L motor is not desirable, so play up how well it runs. Show the underbelly fabrication and the current state of preservation. "Beefy road-gripping look" is not a desirable description.

So sorry I did not read the rules about not posting a price. I was fishing and I guess that is not allowed so ...

$20K is my asking price.

Let me find more pictures and I will post them.

Thanks!

More pics of the Eagle GT ...

The car is in storage right now so new pictures of the interior, engine, chassis, etc., are not available.
