For Sale: 911E Powered 914 Race-car, 'La Avispa' - 'The Wasp'
Hello world!
Scrolling through social media earlier in the week, I came across a post from a gentleman in San Diego selling a 75' 914 track car. Happy to report that after a brief ignition trouble-shoot and wiring connections - the car runs, drives, brakes, shifts and turns - and I have video! Currently, this is slatted to get a carb tune-up, ignition tune-up (perhaps MSD?) and a valve-job, though as it's ready to go, I thought I would give 914-World / Pelican Friends a first shot. Also, car is titled / registered / currently on PNO. NOTE: Additional videos / photos fourthcoming, will post here / google-photos A bit about the car... - 911E Engine (*6200086*) w/ Carbs + Headers - 901 Gearbox (Side-shift) - Fuchs wheels - Willwood Brakes / Vented rotors all-around - Bilstein front suspension / Coil-over rear-suspension - Race Seats / Harness (Not my favorite, but they clean up nice) - Front Mount Oil Cooler - 'Fuel Safe' Tank - Roll cage and reinforced chassis (appears to be Mad-dog or other) - Fiberglass quarter-panels (done VERY well) - 'Glassed-in' roof - Fiberglass front and rear-hoods Areas to be addressed: - Valve Adjustment - Ignition Tuning (Points, Plugs, SP-wires, etc.) - Carb adjustment / Sync (Rebuilt, though pending adjustment) - Speedo not functional (suspect bad speedo-cable) - Tach not functional (suspect disconnected wire) - Wiring 'clean up' (some spliced connections, will be soldering / applying safety-sheathing. Priced $25,500 OBO - Open to trades, doesn't have to be Porsche.

Hey everyone—
Following up on my original post from March. I’ve had a chance to go over the car more thoroughly, clean things up, and shoot a quick behind-the-scenes video. Here’s the YouTube video: It’s not a build series just a casual walk-through, startup, and a short test drive to give you a better feel for what it is. A few notes to avoid a flood of repeat questions: • The car does run and drive. It starts, shifts, and stops. • I think it still needs a valve adjustment, ignition cleanup, and a carb sync to be fully dialed. • No, it’s not rusted out. • Titled, registered, and currently on PNO. I've since lowered the price to $19,500 OBO, I have a chance to buy a car I've been after for a while. Would love to see this go to someone in the community who’ll appreciate what it is: a solid, race-inspired 914-6 conversion with a great foundation and plenty of soul. Happy to answer questions or provide more photos if needed. Thanks! |

Bump!
Price lowered - $17,000 for yellow car. To answer DMs, cars can be combined or sold-operate. Also interested in trades of all forms (Running, Project, shell, etc.). Currently, I have an 'itch' to do an outlaw or 912. Last edited by riquemar; 09-29-2025 at 04:11 AM.. |
