I think it is time to let go of my 914. It was great fun to build and to drive, but since the motor started giving me issues, I haven't had any time to treat it the way it deserves.

I hope one of you can get this running.

I bought the car and completely gutted it. I cleaned up most everything, and replaced the following big items:

1. Full restoration
2. Battery box replaced
3. Bilstein Shocks
4. Upgraded torsen bars
5. Upgraded springs
6. Front and rear sway bars
7. TimND LED gauges
8. Front turn signals LED
9. Rear tail lights and turn signals LED
10. New lenses for all lights/turn signals
11. Classic Car Seats heated leather seats
12. Chromed 4 lug original Fuchs with chrome lugs
13. New brakes and master cylinder from PMB
14. Alpine radio with bluetooth and USB connected to Alpine speakers in 6.5 inch kick panels
15. Top resprayed with texture
16. All rubber seals replaced
17. Cable-shift.com cable shifter with custom bolt in floor mount.
18. New carpet and floor mats
19. New windshield
20. New wheel bearings in all four wheels
21. Custom Microsquirt fuel injection with O2 sensor feedback
22. Heater system complete with defrost together and working
23. New axles and CV joints
24. Gas struts for front and rear trunks
25. New vinyl for targa section
26. Momo steering wheel
27. Plates repainted and stamped in blue and yellow

I restored this car with the intention of keeping it forever. I spent a lot of extra money that I won't ever get back with the idea that it wasn't for sale. (i.e. sourcing real Fuchs, and then spending $900 having them polished and chromed. Then capping them off with billet caps, and real chromed lugs)

Lots of you in So Cal have seen my car, the only difference is that the paint job has started to turn. I hope a polish can clean it up, but I honestly don't know. The motor issues started and I parked it and haven't had much time to work on it. Life is pulling hard in other directions. My honest assessment is that the car would need a respray, and a new long block and you will be set.

And now for some pictures! Everyone loves pictures!

The car is lowered. It obviously doesn't show in the jack stands, but it is.

I am putting it out there for $6,500 OBO, shoot me a offer.

And I know what you are asking.... Is that roll of duct tape/cup holder included, and the answer is yes!

Feel free to PM me any questions. The car is just east of LA in the La Puente area.

I am going to miss her
