1.7l motor out of 1973 914.
Motor sat for over 30 years got the injectors rebuilt flushed the fluids. Got the distributor rebuilt new points. About a week after I picked up the car we got the motor running and then started the restoration. After the start of the restoration a buddy of my father in mentioned he had a 2.0l so we ended up going that way. I’m asking 600obo for motor. I also have the mahle wheels that came in the car powdered coated the original steel color I was going to use then but my buddy gave me 5 lug wheels so I went 5 lug instead. One of the wheels is bent but I was told it can be fixed. I’m asking 500obo for the wheels. The wheels are a full set of 4 and includes the spare wheel. Dm I need gone

Full Version: 1.7 motor and wheels
Please clarify how many wheel you have an post a picture of the bent wheel.
"The wheels are a full set of 4 and includes the spare wheel."
Is the spare a steel wheel?
Pictures of all wheels would really help. Tires included ? Tire condition?
Some can be fixed but the cost can exceed the value of the wheel. I am not sure if the magnesium Mahle wheels can be straightened. Good price for the wheels but than you have to get another one and powder coat to match.

4 lug Mahle’s are cast aluminum. Only the 5 lug gas burners are mag.
Great deal on both engine and wheels, GLWTS!

I have the full set of the wheels plus the spare wheel. So all 4 wheels have tires mounted and balanced. The spare wheel does not have a tire on it. The tires I think are about 6 years old but brand new. My father in-law use to own a restoration company and had the tires but never put them on a car. My tire guy told me the wheel is able to be straightened the price I am not sure about. If you are interested my number is 562-756-3822. It’s easier to send pictures that way. I have a hard time uploading to here
I will take the wheels
I'll take the Engine. Best, TIM

The more running east coast 914's, the better.

I know that you’ve had a reply about the wheels, but if that falls through, I would love to buy them!
Thanks
