I'm selling my '74 six conversion. It is as rust free as they come. Here are the basics. Anyone wanting a detailed spec sheet can email me at: jt9146@aristotle.net.
3.0L six with Cosworth pistons, early "S" cams, Webers. Built on a 930/68 3.3Turbo case. RJ engine mount, MSD igniton, & European Racing headers Jet Hot coated. Patrick Motorsports aluminium oil tank, Earl's 60 row front cooler. Side shift tranny with factory 914-6 gears, Quafe diff. Koni Racing adjustable front shocks, Elephant Racing mono ball kit, C2 calipers, Carrera rotors cryogenicly treated, 22mm torsion bars, 22mm Weltmeister sway bar, roller bearing bushings, & front brake cooling. Rear trailing arm kit, C2 Turbo calipers & frozen Carrera rotors, roller bearing bushings, Koni adjustable shocks with adjustable collars & 200 lb. springs. Steel flares, GT stiffening kit in rear, Brad Mayer longitudinal kit, heim joint rear toe kit, full roll cage, front & rear stiffened, OMP sport seats with six point harness, Momo Prototipo quick release steering wheel, flaired rocker panels, FG rear deck lid with spoiler, GT rear bumper, IMSA front bumper, euro lenes, Polished 7 & 8 X 15" Fuchs. Lots more. The car is Porsche color Ocean Blue Metallic (3 AY).This car is street legal and was built to do DE's. Depending on how you drive this car gets between 17 & 24 MPG. I'm selling it to get another car with "creature comforts."
I have around $40K invested not counting lots and lots of labor hours. I'm asking $25,000 for it as it is. It comes with a spare front bumper, window net, and some other spares.
For $27K you can have it, spares and two sets of track wheels/tires. One set of 7 & 8" Fuchs wheels with 225/50/15 BFG g-force R1 tires about half used. One set of 7 & 8" BBS RA wheels with 225/50/15 Yokohama Advan A048 tires with four DE runs on them. Email me to the address above for questions. Serious buyers only. The price is firm.

if I bought it, it would make up for my huge FAILURE when I didn't buy your car (I think about that at least twice a week,,, irritated at myself).

I did email him asking for inside photos of the rollcage, etc... I told him honestly I don't know if I am truly "serious" since my wife has the ability to neuter.. umm, I mean veto any decision of mine. But ....

I am going to beg tonight... I will come home drunk and ready to put out and do it like I never done it before hoping she tells me "ok, fly out there with the checkbook and look at it!"

I have drooled over this car for the last couple of years at the MUSRs and if there were any way I could possibly purchase this car I would. It is by far the nicest 914 I have ever seen. Maybe whoever gets this car can store it for a couple of years until I can come up with the money. happy11.gif

From personal experience, don't pass on something you really have your mind set on. I'm haunted weekly by one I missed last fall. hissyfit.gif

A little tease.....She looks right at home at the track right??? Note two sets of track wheels/tires...Great deal for only $2K more.....hell the yoko's cost $1K and they have four sessions on them and that was in rainy conditions...

Going to pick up Steve in a few. He gets to see his new ride and drive it. He'll also experience what heat and humidity is like down here in the south. Heat index of over 100 today. Will take him back to the airport later this afternoon.... driving.gif
Dirty Evo
Loved it. The car. Not so in love with southern humidity though. Got to meet my first true southern belle. Holy crap. Beautiful juicy white meat. About the car its pretty awesome. Feel bad for the rest of you that didn't buy it! Probably will sell my cayman and e30 bmw race car as this car fits a perfect niche (for me) right between them. Has the power and speed of the cayman and the mid engine and "porscheness" and the raw, gritty, tough feel that me e30 gives me. With a touch of classic / nostalgia that neither my e30 or the cayman has. So probably sell both of them and get a comfy cheeapy daily driver and the 914 will be my track car / backroad burner when I need the fix. Loved the car and thank you JT for the hospitality, was a great drive and damn that car is tight. Not a squeak or rattle. Tightest car I have ever driven. Great build! Waiting at the airport now on my way home. Anybody want a 2008 cayman s? Email me!
