Nice looking car, but a wierd description of the car. Does he have the Title? Why doesn't he get the valves adjusted or is there something else wrong?

Wow. Super nice /6. I still can't help but want to add flares and a higher HP motor though.....

Jeezus! I thought someone stole my car and put it on ebay

It certainly appears to be a nice car; but who does a repaint/restoration with the side windows in the car? I would just want to crawl over this car carefully. Still, it looks nice in the pictures.

I never can understand why sellers can't/don't vacuum their cars before taking photos when listing them for sale. If your so lazy about something so easy, what does it say about the important things that need to be done?

Notice the screws in the center counsel,they look like self tapping sheet metal screws.Also to start out with a rusty car like that.I would pass on this one.With all the dirt in the interior that shows how the owner takes care of his car's,not that well....
914

Were the original rims 16"? He says the tires are 16"...

The correct wheels ( Fuchs) for a 1970 would be 14"s, though you also have Steelies or Gasburners.

The seller probably meant they were Real Fuchs.

This wasn't a bad car. Has had some battery area repair but never damaged and not body rotted, purchased new here in Atlanta. Engine is not correct, paint job is just ok, interior redone ok had nice bilstein shocks. Low serial number never had driving lights or carpet securing tabs. Certainly in today's market WELL worth $20,000!!!!

Woops that cannot be the same car! The one we sold long ago was not rusted!!!!! Looks like the same serial number though as I remember and it only sold for about six grand back then!

Does it have the correct rubber washers?

Are the VIN tags original?

Not sure we're talking about the same car. Pics from the restoration:

Damn stupid firewall blocking the offsite images ...

You always make me laugh with your well thought witty comments T.C. !!!!

no not the car I was talking about! That one was rust free!!!

maybe the VIN came from the rust bucket in the other photos?


that said, this car looks great in the photos. I'm not sure it's worth the stated 25k, at least to me it's not..

You also think Michael Wills is a handsome man, so I am not sure what to believe.....

These days if we don't find it sitting under a tree on a street where we make a wrong turn on our way to church and pay $800 for it..............not worth it!


AND I was going to bid until I saw that the rubber washers weren't original!

Phew.....I'm always so glad this board is here to 'protect' us all!

Handsome AND hostile

If George had his hands on that car......it was
well put together.....at 1 time!!
can't vouch for now?

Well, the car was purchased from AA in 2001 and underwent restoration in 2003

What kind of condition do you think it was in when AA owned it?

That isn't 2 year old rust. Just sayin'.....

Do you really think George left that car like that??
I see before and after pic"s on this very board
all the time. I cop to my first response.
nothing more to say about it!

So you think the ad should have more appropriately read:

" We purchased this car from AA in absolutely PERFECT condition in 2001. In 2002 we stored the car in a Louisiana swamp. In 2003 we removed it and started a complete rustoration of the vehicle. And just to be clear, the car in our "before" pictures is not the same car we purchased from AA. We just added those pictures to the ebay listing so that you would think we did a lot of unnecessary work to this beautiful specimen of a 914-6."




And to answer your question..........YES

Who charges for Rust, it is always free..

I seem to remember this car was Rennlist topic after it was purchased as a perfect car, but wasn't when the car was delivered..
