1971 914/6 link
If the VIN number is accurate, it's a 71. You don't see too many of those around. It looks pretty nice too. |

1971 914-6. #70 out of 443. Rare indeed.
4 speed tranny? Sun roof? Rear disc brakes? I bet the salesman couldn't find the gas tank or the motor? |

Hmm, painted bumpers, no sail vinyl means a repaint...
No engine shots, darn. Geoff |

The interior looks nice. The painted bumpers dont do much for me.

It *could* be a 4 speed. Most people that dont know the 914 dont even know it has a dog-leg first.
Here is some tranny info on the 4 speeds. Also note that the ZF limited slip tranny's had a different letter in the part number: HBO instead of HAO. B |

QUOTE(Brad Roberts @ Dec 17 2003, 12:28 AM) It *could* be a 4 speed. ...if it's a SportoMatic :-) ... that kind of thing you'd think they'd notice... i had thought the Sports's were early ('70) cars but i realised i don't actually know their distribution through the production run - other than i'd expect them to have been built in a batch ... stock /6 is pretty gutless off the line in 2nd, but i suppose if you were convinced it had only 4 forward gears you'd just think the car was gutless off the line ... |

Hey Guys,
I know the car. It came out of our SMOG area. It's a true 1971 - 914-6. When it came into the dealer it was very ratty. They did a remarkable cleanup and it looks good from 20 ft. I understand the dealer took it in trade & they are into the car for about $15 big ones. It's been there since summer & a good deal could be had. I personally would not buy it, because I want to start with a less expensive car. That being said, it's rare and in a few years the price will look like a bargin. Rare, Rare, but a money pit to restore. Tom |
