New owner picked it up today.. feels very strange to not own a 914 any more after 22 years.

====

Well, another year went by since posting this thread:
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=296939

I think I drove it 250 miles, so I think it is time to entertain sending it onto a new home. Float me some numbers and/or questions/comments.

Repro polished stainless steel early-style bumpers, undrilled front bumper, new factory chromed fog grills

Lots of fresh gaskets and other bits

Many many other small details I'm sure I've forgotten

Stuff todo:

Fresh air blower doesn't work
Fog lights disconnected
Tires are flat spotted from storage but may loosen up with regular driving!

Price?

Oh, oops. I don't actually know, I've been out of the market. $25K in cash would probably convince me if it goes to an enthusiast.

Think this one will sell in a matter of hours.
Time and distance are once again against me ...

looks more like a $35-40K car. Good luck with the sale.

Wow, that sounds crazy for a daily driver condition non-original color 914-6 conversion.. certainly I would not turn down *more* money. smile.gif

I'll update the thread with level of interest - you never know with a non-stock car, maybe they hate my carpet choice.

I'm sure the PMs are coming in at $25k... Good Luck!

PayPal credit is really expensive. Borrow from a 401k or bank line of credit.
