Nice looking car but I'm a CSOB and would not pay $30k for any 914... biggrin.gif

Is that a single carb as well? blink.gif

For those bucks, you need something unique. Dual carbs or FI are too common. Maybe this is that one... the one carb that passed the float test!

that is a nice looking car... But for that kinda $ I would expect a new padded dash, not a plastic cover. You can tell by looking in the corners by the gauge hump and the difference in the ashtray and the dash.

That knocks $10K off of it for me. piratenanner.gif

Not for me!

As nice as this car looks, it has many flaws...whose gonna start the list...? laugh.gif

Looks on first glance to be a nice car. Personally for that price I'd want better attention to the paint job around the Karmann plate and VIN decal, plus loose that wooden wheel (looks so wrong on its own in there) It's actually a fair price in comparison to the Europe Market place, but by the time shipping and duties would be paid it tips it over into the expensive bracket, and we'd go buy local.

That said, shouldn't we all be encouraging prices to go up (looking after our own interests and all?)

Very nice car, I don't know if they will get 30k for it, but it's nice to see the price continue to go up for 914's in general.

Restoration cost $6k? That doesn't cover much... Sounds more like repairs cost $6k...

Something looks amiss with the driver's door. Nicely staged photos.
Mueller
Great looking car, too bad about the motor and that poor choice with the carb. I'm guessing they ran out of money or are one of those people that just care about appearance.

Drivers door not aligned to good.

Where've you guys been? This car's been floating around for a while at an ever increasing price poke.gif

Same dealer.

Looks like a car that was for sales here in LA for awhile.

Yeah it looks nice from the pics but I see 2 things I don't like at all in a $30k car. The carb of course...and:

That don't look right. Rest of the lines look good.

I agree with yall about the door fit. Something doesn't look right about the build and paint code plate. Why is two pins missing? It doesn't fit right in the jam. Possible accident there?

Nope, I'd at least do dual carbs if doing carbs.

$36K, mirrors are wrong, missing fog lights, missing cigarette lighter, has plastic dash cap, what are the switches about the ventilation controls for? No pictures of the underside at all or trunk floors. It that rust bubbles under the sail vinyl? Swaybars? what kind of shocks? What oil tank are they using the filler neck doesn't look correct to me for a /6

rhodyguy
At a second glance, the pass door isn't that swell either.

agree.gif Thank you Kevin. Didn't want to be the "door gap guy".

The bottom rear door corner catches my eye. Then follow the path. rolleyes.gif Oh.

Somehow bluetooth and USB ports, etc just don't sound right in a 914 smile.gif
