I've been looking for a while, I've passed up cars I should have bought but at the time I did not know enough to know what I was passing up. If you are thinking about selling your original 6 or you know someone that is give me a call or e-mail me at dempwolf@pacbell.net Th (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) anks Karl

That's OK I bought mine before I really knew what I really wanted. Several tens of thousands of dollars later... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

I think knowledge is the key, patience a key requirement, and the luck of the Irish getting just what you want. And that is almost unheard of!!

I have been checking all the sites, and yes some of you are good enough to respond with original 6's for sale, but many are hoping for higher prices and waiting for a rich Europen Euro carrying buyer. I've got to be patient, I've got to remain calm, it will happen I just know it. E-mail me directly with info at dempwolf@pacbell.net Thanks for your time.

ME TOO! I am currently searching because my DAD and BROTHER both have Original SIX's stuffed in their garages....time for little bro to get one eh?. But also completely cool that I know where two of them are........so it is my turn to also find one. I would love to jump on your shirt tails and see if we can "tag Team" this problem. I currently live in the Seattle area and we can share inspection time, if you would like? Let me know. mr.242@hotmail.com maybe I can't buy and you would be interested or visa versa.....? lmk (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Oh, yea. Those family SIX's don't reside in the garages! They are driven on the TRACKs and AUTOCROSSES....I am enjoying the "mooching' off my father driving his until I can find something of my own. Almost had one through CAMP914, but got sold out from under me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif) DAMN, made a horrible Father's Day. Good luck to all. |

John thanks for thinking of me. Yes I do have a budget and when things get close to 30k the car better be real close to what I want. This car was on e-bay before and when I asked Thomas his thoughts, -he tells me for less than 25k it would be an ok deal, but removing all the AC pumps and heat exchanger and plumbing would be lots of work and cost me a pretty penny. I stopped at 22k and I'm told I was outbid again. So I'm stopping. Thanks again for passing this on to me. Karl

Well,
I am going to San Fran to look at a 914-6 project. I am going with my Dad so it will make for at least a nice Father\son trip! I know that a couple other guys looked at it and didn't offer the guy the purchase price. Maybe you guys are out there and are reading this. Can I get some feedback to what you found? Thanks, Mr.242 Happy Hunting |

Thanks, Mr.242 Happy Hunting Hey Mr.242, I didn't know this is where you hang-out. I was looking for you at 914club.com. Anyway, I hope you and your dad got home safely with the car. I'm already missing owning a 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Though I must admit, that stack of Benjamins you gave me had a consoling effect -- until I had to give all of it my kid to take care of her problems. All my best to you and Stu. BenT |

The more I hear about passing stones, the more I feel his pain. One baby doc decribed it to a woman friend of mine today that it was like trying to pass a cantaloupe out of your exhaust pipe. Ouch!

I am ALIVE......what a week! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
I would explain that I discovered I had TWO different problems going on; none the less I was in pain on the trip down and back. It wasn't the stone. The Stone dropped this last Sunday and THANK GOD for Drugs! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I have NEVER been in sooo much pain in my life. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) I have been told Kidney stones are like child birth to compare the two. I can tell you all that I don't wish that on anyone. Thanks Ben for the chance to buy your car. It is cleaning up nicely. Anyway....back to finding a SIX for Karl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am off the market, but willing to look in the Pacific NW if something is found you need me to look at! Let me know. BEST O LUCK (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) MR.242 |

Thanks Mr. 242 for helping satisfy my 914-6 wants and wishes. I did find something on this site that I found exciting and I need to have someone point me in the right direction. There appears to be a data base of 914-6 vin# and the history of the cars. So if someone is sending me a picture of a pig with lipstick I would be able to do some research and possibly find information a seller is not willing to share with me. Any idea where I can find this or how to use it?? Thanks for your help. Karl
