parting 75 914 1.8
I have decided to part my 914. I don't want to do the structural rust repair. Thanks to all who offered advice, parts, etc. I've concluded it could be done, but not by me. If someone wants to buy it and fix it, shoot me an email. Clear title, I believe I am the third owner. Original owners manual and sales literature. Odometer and title agree that the car has under 51k original miles.
Aside from the quarters and floors, the car is very very nice and the black interior is nearly perfect. Silver body panels in great shape (doors, hood/trunk lids, fenders). Everything works, including the headlamps, factory fog lamps, and all other lights.
The car is running and driving right now. It starts right up and idles, no smoke. Smooth power. No stumbling. Injection is still on the car.
It's on steel wheels which i will keep because I want it to roll until I cut it up in pieces.
The glass, lenses, chrome trim, seats, dash, gauges, center console w/gauges, etc. are all great. The interior looks like a relatively new car. Even the carpet is clean.
If someone was looking for 'everything' you'd need to make a running car this is it. All you'd need is a rust free chassis and time.
I also have some spare parts I've assembled (some through Pelicanites):
1. new right side engine shelf
2. NOS lower firewall
3. rear bilsteins and a couple sets of springs (don't know rates
but stiffer than stock-I purchased them used)
4. shifter bushings (email for part numbers)
Please post inquiries here.
Thanks,
David
