We found this hidden in the attic space of a room we are renovating in our house

This certainly has to be a very valuable/historic part with provenance due to the possible original owners' international notoriety, and surely has to be from the oldest 914 know to mankind !!!

... therefore, I am somewhat hesitant to post an asking price, and thinking ebay might be the appropriate place to post this gem

It appears to be an engine mount bar from a prehistoric 914 belonging to either Fred and Wilma Flintstone or Barney & Betty Rubble

Wow hand forged I bet.

Edit: Didn't realize it was wood, predates the discovery of metal even.

You better hold on to it. Rare parts like that don't grow on trees you know.






Wood you take tree fiddy for it?





There must be more to it, a second part or something because to me it looks like it is knot hole.

WOW!! Unicorns DO exist!!

Can't beat ONE OFF stuff!

You must post a price. Rules are rules...

I’m only interested if you have the original box it came in. If you do I will pay big bucks.

Well I suppose that Fred (or Barney) were technically "THE mid-engine" - but I hesitate to image exactly how and where that engine bar would attach to the "engine"!

We found this in the attic while renovating our 1921 home, but didn't realize it was a 914 part either. Perhaps a prototype transaxle mount? So any help with value, part number & I.D. will be greatly appreciated, before I list it on evilbay.

In reality, that is the cast iron base to a 19210-20s clothing iron (my wife found a complete & non-rusty one online), & my guess on Mark's piece is a hand-made field-made support for an old black-iron gas pipe or G.I. water pipe.

Happy 4th!

I need one of these but am afraid to ask the price

I have the same one.... looking for the hard to find passenger side. Anyone?
