1973 Porsche 914 2.0 in beautiful Phoenix Red looking for new owner to drive and enjoy.
This car was owned by one woman, who purchased the car new in Pasadena in 1973 and kept it a California car it’s whole life. The woman passed away years ago and I purchased this car from her surviving husband about 2 years ago. I have all paperwork to document the little old lady story.
Since then, the entire car has been taken apart and gone thru. It is a very nice car that includes all original manuals and looks and drives beautifully. No squeaks or rattles, doors close nice and tight as they should with no body sag and nice fitting door gaps. Rear trunk pan and battery tray were replaced with new panels. Rear trunk lid hinge was replaced. Repairs were done correctly and all affected areas were meticulously cut out and treated with seam sealer being used on all welds. This car is solid as rock and ready for another 40+ years of life. I have pics of body before paint to show it was a nice straight car to start with, the paint was just too faded and had a few too many blemishes to make it the nice car it is now.
The body color is the original L32K code that was recently redone and shines very nice. Most seals and weather stripping have been replaced. The interior is very nice and original with minimal wear. The original dash has some cracks but has a very nice dash cover installed over it that looks great.
This was originally a 1.7 liter car but the motor wasn’t running with poor compression when I purchased it. We took that one out but rather than rebuild the original 1.7, we built and installed a very nice GA code 2 Liter with stock, nicely tuned D-Jet fuel injection and a larger 2.0 heat exchanger setup and exhaust. The original fuel injected 1.7 motor is disassembled but is included with the sale. So if the new owner wishes to rebuild and re-install the original motor for originality sake, they can do so. Although, I can’t imagine someone wanting to do that after driving this very well sorted car with this very desirable engine combo.
