Hey all,

Thinking about parting ways with my beloved 914. Life is a little different now from when I got it and it really doesn't see the outside of the garage as much as i'd like it to. Below is a list of projects completed since I got the car in the summer of 2018. It's a 1970 PNW car that came with Riviera wheels, Duck tail and Rear window defrost.

New since car was purchased in 2018
-Wiring harnesses for Engine and Ignition (Jeff Bowlsby and 914rubber)
-123 Distributor
-Coil, Spark Plugs and Wires
-Battery Tray and Right side Engine Tray Sheet metal (aka HELL HOLE repair!)
-Thermostat, Thermostat Cable
-Cylinder Head Temp Sensor
-o2 bung welded onto exhaust for tuning
-Stainless Fuels lines front to back (plastic lines removed)
-Modern fuel pump relocated to front trunk
-Fuel Injectors serviced
-Fuel tank sock
-Fuel Filter
-Throttle Cable
-Shifter bushings front to back
-Engine Seals replaced (clean garage floor under motor)
-Vacuum lines front to back
-Exhaust surround fresh air hoses
-Engine bay rain tray (914 Rubber)
-Trickle Charger
-Front and Rear Rotors and Pads with Rebuilt Calipers
-19mm Master Cylinder
-Rubber brake hoses
-Rear Suspension, 914rubber Springs, Bilstein Struts, 914rubber Trailing Arms and Bushings
-Front Suspension 914rubber Bushings and Bilstein Struts
-Tie Rods
-Front and Rear wheel bearings
-Electric washer fluid pump conversion and lines
-Pedal cluster wooden board
-Transmission flush
-Speedometer Input Shaft and Seal kit (914rubber)
-Stainless Wheels with 914 Hub Caps (Original Rivieras included)
-Plastic dash cover
-Carpet set (not installed)
-Custom 914 embroidered floor mats
-Sun visors
-JVC BT Stereo with 4 Rockford Fosgate Speakers, 914rubber speaker housings, Microphone and Blaupunkt Subwoofer
-Cellphone holder (Modded ash tray with cell phone holder)
-Center Console with Speakers, Cupholder and Sub Control (Not OEM, All removable)
-Cigarette lighter/12v power outlet
-LED bulbs for gauges
-Turn signal lenses (front and side)
-Dome light lens and switch
-Door switches for dome light
-Car Cover

Rebuilt/Replaced
-Rebuilt Brake Calipers
-Replaced AAR Valve
-Rebuilt Manifold Pressure Sensor (Tangerine Racing kit, now tunable on car)
-Rebuilt Pedal Cluster with Brass Bushings
-CV joints serviced with safety wired bolts
-Converted to later model air intake with paper gasket (Original oil air filter housing included)
-Bursch Exhaust
-Driver door deposit box sourced and installed
-Valves adjusted and fresh valve cover gaskets

Compression Checks
#1/120 #2/128 #3/125 #4/135

The paint is a respray from a prior owner in original tangerine. It still shines although has some imperfections and chips. The interior seats could use new covers at some point. I have re covered the seat bottoms with black vinyl coverings.

Prior owner had transmission Rebuilt and new clutch installed. I would estimate 3000 miles on those components but not sure.

What do you guys think this car is worth, ball park? Understanding it's not a 2.0 etc but i've invested an awful lot of time into the car and as you guys very well know some of these parts and repairs were not cheap! (or fun!)
