FS: 1970 914-6, GT tribute race car Options

[BillJ]

Original 1970 914-6 done as GT. Has been raced at many vintage events (HSR, SVRA, VDCA, PCA, etc) since 1984. This car was owned by my father and he and i raced it for twenty plus years before selling to last owner. He raced for a decade and then i purchased from him. This car has shared the track with many exotic cars including 934, 935, 962, 917, and other fantastic Porsche’s (I guess other cool cars too but who cares?) throughout the years. Has run as far north as Mosport in Toronto to Sebring in Florida and as far west as Mid-Ohio in, well, Ohio. Recently underwent a refresh including all new 2.4 liter 10.2:1 compression Twin Plug engine, oil system including front cooler and metal rocker gt oil pipes, gearbox (Dr Evil rebuild), shifter, pdm and aim dash and all wiring, exterior paint, new floors, redone Konig seats both sides in unique plaid, Repa replica harnesses, and many other subtle touches throughout. Car has two plus sets of wheel options but currently shod in Minilites in the rear and RSR Fuchs in front and shod with Hoosiers. S brakes up front and Carrera rears. All new suspension RSR bushings front and rear. The car is definitely track oriented but could be used on street if desired.

2.4 twin plug race engine has brand new 8R case from Porsche, heads by extreme in florida(they do the Singer heads), nikasyl cylinders and JE pistons all new. PMO carbs. Race suspension. Vintage race spec brakes. New electronics to manage it all. Sports oriented interior with refreshed and unique Konig seats. Clean appearance and mostly business. Original 6 with GT kit in place. Comes with 6 extra fuchs with Hoosiers and other spares. Car is aligned to PCA VU, and built to be classified as. 2.4 liter which should prove very competitive in HSR, VDCA, and SVRA.

Sold on bill of sale and a lot of paperwork going back to the 80s. Offering here first before going to BAT at $70k.

That’s a lot of car for the money. GLWTS.

[BillJ]

Thanks Mark. Engine build alone was 50k. Not even an hour on it.

A few more. After entire underside and wheels wells were dry ice cleaned, inspected for crack or rust (none) they were coated with Wurth. Also showing RSR bearings on front control arms.

Man, what a beauty and that is indeed a whole lot of real 914-6 for the money. Someone is going to get a terrific car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Thanks guys. I will miss it but other priorities beckon.

I did not mention above that a few things would need to be addressed if you wanted to make this car fully street legal. Headlights, turn signals, and wipers are not operable right now. The entire wiring system was removed and replaced with all new throughout along with a solid state fuse and power distribution module. Power leads were routed to all the critical points for future installation. Wiper motor was never removed and one could use the control pad or I have switches if desired. Turn signals in rear would need to have wires connected to those spades and for the fronts I have euro turn signal buckets that would need to be installed and wired. I have new wire grommets for that purpose as well. For the headlights I just restored the mechanisms with all new bushings and hardware, cleaned up the buckets themselves, installed new H4 lenses and LED lights, along with new three prong wires from 914 Rubber. Power leads are ready to connect and there is a convenient button already on the control pad. The headlight motors were removed many moons ago. Plan was to manually raise and retighten in up position and power for night racing.

All this could be handled in pretty quick fashion by someone more electrically competent than I. These stems were not a priority for me as I only used the car on track.

This car has lived the last 43 years or so inside or on a track. Really no in between. Hell hole is very dry.

Is it safe to assume metal flairs? Metal hoods?

[BillJ]

Definitely fiberglass as per factory for hoods and bumpers. The flares were done in fiberglass as well in 1984 and unchanged since. They are holding up well and they are wide enough for 15x9 in the rear. I saw no reason to update that. Nice and light.
