[CHA914]

Hello guys,

914 owner here looking to add a 911 to the stable for my DD. I am looking for a good driver, not a garage queen, I am not scared of doing work on the car, but I don't want to buy something that will need major (ie engine rebuild) for at least a couple years.

I am looking at an 86 carrera with 131K (he is asking 16.5k)
White with Red interior
Very stock, orig fuchs, has the spoiler. Looks to be orig paint and in good shape, no cracked glass, interior has some wear, some cracking in the drivers seat (no tears) and both the leather dash and rear package shelf are warped from sun exposure, but again, not terrible.

Only changes from stock appear to be the radio and a muffler. I drove the car yesterday and the engine is very strong (owner states that its never been opened, and only uses 1qt every 1200-1500 miles). The shifting was vague (prob needs bushings or?) and I felt the steering was heavier than it should have been (tierods maybe?) And the clutch engagement was very high but the effort was light (normal?)

Brakes felt great, and the car drove straight and pulled to 100 with no problems.

The clutch as 70k on it at least, he said the car has had the MC replaced recently as well as the alt. A/c blows cool, but not cold, sounds like it will need a recharge.

Thats about what I know now, going to get the car on a lift tomorrow, what are some other things to look for?

And what would you pay for this car?

Thanks for the help,

Tony
