i do like the custom fitted coco mat in the frunk, but...

Very clean but 95,000 miles?

Wheels.

No, I do not think this will be interesting. At this price I do not think there will be any action here at all.

Lots of beautiful work done here but I am always perplexed as to why someone will be so meticulous with attention to original detail, but then can not resist a few personal touches. Invariably they never add to the value, art nor quality of the final work in my opinion.

Didn't all 2.0s come with the appearance package?

If not this is a really wierd combo...

"Trim delete option" did such a thing exist?

I think Brent's (bbrock) car is equipped like this. His resto thread is here: Montana restoration

OK I'll start.

MPS mounted incorrectly

Dual heater blower hose >74

What's with the hose clamps on the intake rubbers, and everywhere else?

Wrong vacuum hoses

missing the rubber cap on the ECU.

Black sail panel trim? none had that. (yeah mine does but its not Concours)

Damn if this is worth 90K mine should be worth at least 60k+ (or maybe even as much as I have into it)

Does look nice though.

This, the black caps on the wheel bolts, fog lights, the custom carpet. I don't think buyers in this price range appreciate these 'improvements'. I would expect this car to be offered somewhere in the 30-40k range, certainly not for almost 100k.

To me it’s a nice looking 914 but I can’t see it being concourse. I also can’t see it selling for any were near that price with that mileage as a resto. I must say if it somehow dose sell for $98,500 mine just likely would be up for sale and I have no interest in selling my favorite toy right now.

Wheels are Pedrini ....if I remember you have to modify the wheels or rotor for them to fit late struts

Nice looking...

Does this mean my 6 is worth a gazillion $$$ now

Is this the effect from the $1M sale of "Brutus". I figured some people would get a bit crazy when that happened...

Mine's close, but there are some differences. There was a "Sport" package that according to @Tom_T was apparently offered after the "S" was dropped that included both Appearance and Performance Group options as base.
Differences on this one are the Pedrinis and fogs. Mine has Fuchs and no fogs which I think was the basic "Sport" combo.

I may be biased, but I think any nice example with this rare trim combo deserves $98K

VIN is in the db...user posted once, in 2016 looking for a fuel pump. Even posted his phone number...

I know this car. Pedrini wheels of course are not correct should be mahle, but an impeccable restoration, guy purchased over 32000 in parts for it. I personally inspected this car at the restoration shop and gave them some direction and pointers.

Guy who owns it has a very large car collection and is a hell of a nice guy. Actually do not know why he is selling, but maybe tired after winning so many concours competitions in New England as well as awards for the perfection of the restoration. These days with some of the high auction prices, as well as the sale of Brutus, we do not know where the price of good 914s is going, especially coming up on the 50th anniversary. Porsche Parade is featuring the history of the 914 this year.

I applaud the guy for doing the restoration, following it through, chasing down the zillion details (though he may've gotten a couple wrong-ish), and spending lots of effort and dollars furthering the passion that brings us together.

Regardless of what dollar amount it brings, seems it'll set a new standard for a restored -4. It'll also bring some notoriety to the cars in general, giving a potential 'ok' to spend a little more time and money on the cars (always appreciated!) as we benefit from a little more built-in equity.

Either way, big time 'hats off' to him for the effort. I wish him the very best.

So far all someone did was list something on eBay. I could list my left shoe for 20k. Doesn’t mean a thing unless it sells.

I hope he gets every penny he's asking for it.

I bought a 73 1.7 new, with the sport package. It had pedrinis, and fog lights, but no center console.

Nice, but 95K nice maybe not...

anyone can get one of
those, cost less
than $200 for mine. Nice car, if he gets anything close to his price i suppose
i should call haggarty and increase my insurance again

My 73 2.0L came without the vinyl sails, black bumpers, no fogs, but with the center console. So the outside "delete" could be correct. I add correct fogs and Fuchs.

Best entertainment since the 2 sexy girl,this is a truck load of laughs...

1 year ago,, nw euro.. 2 owner $28,500...I know the second owner real deal.. took 1.5 years to sell

I second that. The more they sell for the more all of our cars are worth

The harder it gets to purchase

And they become garage queens, hardly driven.

And insurance becomes more expensive.

old cars deserve a rest, and unlike other old things are still great to look at.

Hey, I resemble that remark!!
