I don't think I've ever seen a metallic green six before, would have been cool. if that car wasn't a color change I'd be tempted. looks like my house is going to sell for more than expected, so I've got some 914 money to spend soon! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

let us know what the owner says.

Spoke with the seller of the ivory car last week. He readily acknowledged the color change. Appears to have incorrect rear bumper and valance. Very nice looking car though.

He said it was a bare metal job. I asked about the bumper and he said the original was dented a bit so he bought a bumper on Ebay. Don't think he even knew there was a difference. It has been for sale off and on over the past couple of years at a higher price. He seems to be anxious to sell this time.

I was wrong in my previous post. I think I have looked at too many 6's for sale. The rear bumper appears to be correct on the ivory car in Monterey. My mistake.

Looks like I'll be putting up on Ebay the 2 complete wood grain dash kits I have.

Brad, I dont want a kit but I'd sure like to check the measurements against the wood dash I'm working on (a lovely piece of african rosewood)/ JT

From the blue car on ebay ad:

QUOTE
The color of the car is original, however it was repainted 19 years ago (the same color). The pics do not show all of the flaws/scratches.



This might be a $17K car if it had nice paint and the potential buyer didn't mind the flares.

I noticed that in Panorama there are a number of 914-6es that sound pretty good. I guess they are all for sale because of the economy. It's probably hard to have $15-20K tied up in a just-for-fun car if you are out of a job.

When the black 2.4 was for sale in that ad I inquired about price, sit down, $30k. Is it for sale today and if yes? How much?

"I noticed that in Panorama there are a number of 914-6es that sound pretty good"

Derek,


I'm betting its the one that Joe Reitmer had up for sale and had the racers group try and move it. This guy probably bought it.

Jim,

I'll try and bring the pieces I need Thursday night.

If this is a conversion it may be worth someones time.

I bet some of the factory six owners are seeing other factory sixes for sale for prices that are pretty high and they are jumping on the band wagon hoping to sell there car for whatever reason.

In general there are a lot of specialty cars on the market right now because people want more liquidity due to the economy, gas prices, looming war etc.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I remember when I was looking for my car 5 years ago. There were about 6 -8 to chose from but not in as good condition as the ones out now. The Internet was just getting going as a mechanism to sell cars. Now it's the place to put cars for sale and they are getting a lot more exposure too.

What am I talking about? I don't know, I just thought I would ramble on and on until I froth at the mouth and fall over backwards...ahhh.

Remember the blue car up in Reno? 72 Sixes had the ignition on the column, just like the four-cylinder cars.

But yes, the VIN is a dead give-away.
