I bought this as an unfinished project a year ago. It was built up on a salvage title shell. On closer inspection it has a new front drivers side corner on it. I finished it up, drove it around the canyons driving.gif and did a few track days so now is time to move on.

1970 2.2T engine with pressure fed carrera tensioners, very strong running, good compression and oil pressure, rebuilt 40 weber ida's, firewall mount, velios oil tank, braided oil lines, headers with stock 911 banana muffler, good side shifter trans and clutch.

911 vented brakes all round with an aluminum 911 front crossmember, koni's all round, front sway bar, braided hoses.

7 and 8 x 15 OG fuchs wheels

The body was originally silver but has been painted black all over and under quite well. Fenders have been gently radiused. There was some hell hole rust when i got it but i welded in a new panel plus a new battery tray and support. No other rust anywhere as its a blue plate CALIFORNIA CAR. I had the targa roof painted smooth black to match the body.

The interior is mostly stock but i added a low pressure oil warning lamp on top of the dash and did an electronic tach upgrade in the OG housing.

As its a salvage title i'll sell for the parts value of $8000

Ideally you'd swap all the parts onto a nice clean unrepaired shell like i intended to do or just drive it as i ended up doing as its so much fun as is.

Wow, what a deal!

Apparently not sad.gif , someone gave me a big PM lecture last week that's its not even worth $8k in parts so looks like i'll be keeping it. driving.gif
mepstein
It would make a great base for a GT project since everything gets cut up and replaced anyway. 8K is a very nice price for what you're selling.

I guess it the motor and other components needed work, then maybe confused24.gif

Then again, I haven't really looked up how much it would cost to convert my teener into a 914-6 clone.

Well, I hope you find continued enjoyment with the car.

Looks like a nice 914 track/street ride.

While opinions are everywhere for everything. Some may believe that the economy is on the up-turn, yet specialty vehicles are selling slowly still....

Even with a salvaged title, I believe that your car is worth a fair amount.

I'll PM you next week.
Cheers,
M

It's worth what somebody willing to pay for it!!!! If I wasn't so far away, I would have looked at it and considered buying it!!! You could consider giving it to me but that would be reDICKlious!!! Everybody has an opinion, Don't listen to most of them!

Hi.

If you still have the car for sale do you have photos of the engine/transmission. Is the transmission 901/915?

Is there a heater, controls, heat exchangers, and mufflers.

Is the fuel management carburetors or fuel injection or any other changes. Would you know the compression on each cylinder. Is it leaking very much oil, how much per month.

Rob.
