Got my 1st 914 in the late '90's, had a few more through the years and finally in 2007 I sold my last 914 along with my car trailer.

I finally convinced the wife that I really want to get another one, however no racecar, nothing too fancy....

So, for $2000 I think I got a pretty good deal.


Specs:
Bad 2.0 bus motor that the PO is pretty sure it is a dropped valve seat.
Redrilled front and rear rotors.
16x7 Phonedials
Megasquirt
Black interior in decent shape (has some trim pieces I sold to the PO 5 years ago)
Kerry Hunter header or one that looks like it.

Now to get together with McMark and pick up a 1.7 motor he has!

Nice car!! Lose those mirrors and git 'r running'!!!!

Nice car, congrats.. Can you tell me about the "NARP" emblem in the rear. Where can I get one? Thanx. Dave

No idea....PM your address and you can have it for the price of shipping, I'd rather have the 9-1-4 emblem back on it

Mueller, that looks like a hell of a deal!!!!

awesome!

congrats!

Awesome!!! Congrats!! Pretty good looker for 2k!

Welcome back to the insanity! Looks like a nice platform o work with.

You did well with this purchase! Congratulations! Lots of fun ahead for you!

Welcome Home Mueller!!

Stop by if you are driving it through Disovery Bay!!

Digging the phone dials

Welcome Back

Welcome Back!!!!

Megasquirt? Nice buy. Phone dials are so underrated. They fit great and look nice.

Looks like a very nice deal. Congrats.

Best color too! Everybody knows the white ones are the fastest...

Very fitting it has phone dials. Hi Mike Congrats

Welcome back! Looks pretty good. How about an OC Turbo 1.7?

Nice! Looks like the bumpers have been backdated also.

Did you ever find a place to keep it?

Yes, my neighbors across the street will let me keep it in their driveway until I my other project car is up and running and I make a cleaned up space for the 914 in the single car side of the garage.


Bought a new car cover for it today, it used to be garage kept for the last 6 or so years.


My girls are all excited about the car, wanted to get it a ride in it as soon as we got home from school and got bummed about it not running right now.

Congrats, but are you sure you want a 1.7 aircooled engine?

And the narrow body. The combo is sweet.

And the color! Very clean indeed!

For $2k, quite a deal. Rust?

Yep yep!

Especially the 1.7's!

(Okay, that bit was way over the top... Scratch that.)

Nice ride! You will be up and running in no time.

Not really, but it fits my budget right now and my track record of getting a running driving 914 with another powerplant isn't so good!

Nice!

Glad to see you are getting another one.

I keep contemplating selling mine but I have a stupid love hate relationship with it. I k ow I'd be upset if I sold it.

Congrats again!

Nice, It even came with a NARP badge

Just feeding the fire here....nothing to see.

Cough cough audi, cough cough

What mirror is that? It would look way better than the vitalonis on my '73, and might fit over the wide holes that were drilled for them.

Car looks great for 2k!

I'm guessing you fixed your fan? I saw your car at work on Thursday, I'll be back there on Monday morning for a few hours to finish a repair.

Seems like a very good deal

Good luck with your fun project

Great looking car. It should give you a good case of "914 Sickness". Have many miles of enjoyment.

Here is a funny thing...I bought this heater below at least 10 years ago it seems...I didn't use it and I gave it to previous owner of my 914, he includes it with the few boxes of spare parts!


Placed on 12"x12" tile floor for scale.

I know it is 24vdc, however I can get the appropriate sized DC to DC converter/power supply for less than $20 on eBay.

Car has a header on now, not sure if it will stay or not since I don't have any heat exchangers or any of the correct valves or parts to hook them up.

Gas heater? In a box of spare parts? OK, now you're just rubbing it in.

Good job.

Gas heater which used to be his, and that he gave away. That it came back to him is merely karma in action...

Nice looking car, look's like a good start clean body. John

I guess I can make this my build project thread

These showed up today....

Welcome back Mueller! I knew you couldn't stay away from these things, they are addictive.

Again!

Where did you order those side stripes from? I like the green!

I got them a member here....arcadeforever ,he has a thread in the vendor section, great to deal with.

Right on. What a great color combo...

I'll need your VIN for the LE Registry...

Made my last $200 payment today...Now to "invest" that $200 a month into getting the car back on the road

Woot!
