Same seller recently sold my neighbor an'86 BMW cycle.
Great bike, and good transaction.
Looks like he is into flipping cool cars and bikes.

What do you guys really know about it ? Pos. or Neg. confused24.gif

It,s at 15,100.00 , now I had a deal fall thu again on a nice 6.

Those who know the car, what would be the Max you would pay for it?

Where is it located, PNW. or Mich. as it says on the pic. page ????

The wife says I have $20,000.00 to use. If I had to spend that ,is it a good

buy? Hands are shakeing like a leaf in the wind just typeing this !

I would have bought the Blue real -6 for 20k myself that was on ebay last week.

The slitsscottkleindanrootcamp914headragerenovegasscooter is pretty nice, scooter threw the best money at it.

What's the the console with no gauges? (Looks like the gauges were moved to the dash face, just looks weird to have kept a blank console)

The car came from Dan to CAMP 914. I detailed the car out, and sold it to a buyer in Bakersfield. It might have been Headrage? Don't quote me on that one. And it appears to have made the rounds down south.

Anyone see anything wrong with this picture?

Maltese Falcon
Looks like heater hose (+ orange heat skin) being used for engine-to-tank oil line.
Some kind of weld going on at the bottom of the long, just where it ascends up into the engine bay.
Two large bolts under the floorboard, maybe some trick seat rails ?
Get a ppi !

returf
bent sill where someone jacked it in the wrong place?
returf
Almost looks like a water hose with a tap hose clamped on too?
Dave_Darling
They forgot to take some of the masking paper out when they painted the rocker panels?

--DD
rick 918-S
Check set is missing. Some call it a jack donut but that's not it's function. It's used as a factory chassis fixture and check for center twist on the Celette. All that is left is a bent lower rail and some crappy weld beads. Get a PPI.
Maltese Falcon
Right on Rick...I found these Check Sets real helpful in constructing the rolling dolly for the 914.
Specs+dimensions are found on the 914World home page, click 914 info. This 914 could have gone curb surfing in a fast right hander wacko.gif

Jeff has the history correct ....

I bought it out of a tow yard in 0?... called it "Ol' Smokey" due to oil leaks.

Engine had been rebuilt (and maybe the tranny too.). They couldn't get it started. They forgot to hook up the CHT. Got it running and drove it twice ... once to a G&R Swap Meet and second time to SKline's house when I sold it to Scott.

Scott sold it to Dan Root. I remember Dan saying on the trip North, it was the strongest pulling 4 cyl he had ever driven.

Dan converted it to a /6 and sold it to Boxstr? ... Alan (HeadRage) bought it. Last time I saw the car was on the track at The Lone Pine Autocross. Alan and Arron were severely drunk driving the car at 2 AM on the track.

Alan had some problems with the car .. cylinder miss fire & oil leaks ... all fixed (I think by Henry @ Supertec) and he sold it to ??? to buy a lowrider (He lived in BakertuckyMexicodelNorte ya know).

Oh well .................
