I am 71 years old and recently fell and broke my hip. I dont think I will ever be able to drive my 1974 bumblebee LE car . My sons are not interested in owning it,so it needs to find a new home. It is a well sorted out good driving car. I puchased this car from John Willimson aka Otto Madic out of Venice Ca. If anyone is interested I will negotiate a fair price .

I spoke to Stan this AM, and he sent me a few pictures of his LE. Number one the engine is not the matching number to the car. I remember his car when John (Ottos) was selling it and I thought it was very nice. It seems that the paint needs color sanding and polishing.
Stan is looking for $45,000 OBO on his car that is in Hutchinson, KS

NOT MY CAR, and I am not a player on it, just trying to help out a fellow 914 lover.

Stan, I hope you are doing well and will recover quickly! We spoke about the car last year.

With a good presentation and photos, I would think this would do well on Bring a Trailer if it doesn't sell quickly here. I know some folks don't love this route, but it does get you the best exposure. The car has a great story with Otto's ownership.

Cheers,
Jerry
