I have been restoring Porsche 911's and 914's for about 12 years now and know a good project from a nightmare. This is a good project car. The 914's are becoming more valuable so if you can do a reasonable part of this project yourself you can actually come out on the plus side instead of the typical upside down projects. These Porsche are super easy to work on and assemble compared to a 911. Parts are readily available as well as lots of help from enthusiasts in places like 914world.com, 914club.com and Pelicanparts.com. I bought this stalled project car from the previous owner thinking I would get to reassembly by this winter. Pair a body shop that cannot find the time to get to it with my other 4 project cars not moving as fast as I would like and I realize that I will not get to this for quite some time.
The previous owner bought this low mileage 914 totally intact and original in 2011. He soon after discovered some rust and decided to take on the repairs himself. He disassembled everything to be sure no rust was missed. He fixed the infamous hell hole, right longitudinal, the inner left rear quarter panel and inner front left wheel well in the rear outer corner. He cut the rear left quarter off because for easier to access to the inner quarter wall and because he intended to add GT flares. The project pretty much stalled there and I picked it up about 6 months ago. As you can see in the pictures the rear quarter panel and a piece he removed from the front fender need to be put back in place as well as a piece of the floor pan. This will be a quick fix for someone that knows how to weld. The battery tray is included and will have to be welded in place as well. The car includes just about everything you need to put it back together. From what I have noticed it is missing the dash top pad and the rear window. Front windshield Is there and I believe new. The engine is complete with the original fuel injection with computer with harness. The trans is 5 speed and still mounted to the engine. The balance of the body is in remarkably good condition with no rust in the front or rear trunks. The targa top is solid. The rear taillights are pretty decent but one will need to be glued back together. The original bumpers are included as are some nice parts that the previous owner collected. Most items are shown in the pictures. At the buy it now price I will include some earlier chrome bumpers and a rear fiberglass lower valance and new set of stainless steel fuel lines. The car and parts are located in Kenilworth, New Jersey and can be seen Monday - Friday between 8:00 AM and 5:30 PM. I will assist if you want to ship this car. I can have it delivered within 50 miles of Kenilworth but car must be paid for before I load it up on a trailer. I think I have covered it but if you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks and Happy Bidding! THIS WAS INCORRECTLY LISTED AS A 1973. IT IS A 1976. |

Race Recap: 2013 Petit Le Mans draws curtain on the ALMS [spoilers]
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The 16th Petit Le Mans Powered By Mazda, in the final year of the American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patrón, was run on Saturday. Even though many of this year's championships had already been decided, the last ALMS race ever would be a 10-hour, 1,000-mile slog around Road Atlanta to get names in the record books and decide a few series trophies.

Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
