Very nice! Seems like a great price too.

Says, it includes rare 914 bicycle rack? Never heard of one, anybody know if a factory bike rack was ever offered? I've seen the ski racks, wonder if it's similar...

From those pics at least, it looks really good. Can't understand
the black between the taillights, though.

At this point in time, any mass produced 914 bike rack would be rare.

Looks pretty nice to me. If I had it to do all over again, this car would be a player...

On that car, I think the black looks good.

Ferg,

I used to have a bike rack for my 914 back in the late 70s. I think it was made by Mohn--bought it at "Autovia" in the U-district in Seattle. I'll see if I have any pictures (or pieces).

The -6 seems like a pretty good deal. Something to consider . . . ?

Best,

Steve A-

Any one up North know this car?? I called the number but only voicemail so far. Jim Chambers and I could be driving matching 6"s.

At that price someone ought to be jumping on it fast. Only fear would be the "R" word. I sold a car with weak paint, fake Fuchs and Kevin's beloved AC scars for $12 a year ago. Buyer sold it on Ebay last fall for $14. Not nearly as nice looking as this one. Even looks like it might have a correct rear bumper, always a good sign.

edit: Kevin you're way to picky on this color thing. If it is original Canary, it's good enough!

Posted by: rhodyguy Mar 29 2005, 08:53 PM

makes it easier to pass on them jim. needs to be silver to accept the red interior. oh, no sail panel vinyl either.

i spoke to the seller earlier this evening. he says there is light rust in the trunk, and battery tray. he says he has a spare tray he never installed. he is the 3rd owner.

I repeat, someone better hurry.

Posted by: Root_Werks Mar 29 2005, 10:41 PM

I won't go out there just to look at it, but if someone wants a PPI done on it, let me know.

Posted by: rick 918-S Mar 29 2005, 11:14 PM

If I had the jing that car would have a sold sign on it. Wife would kill me dead if I buy one more car! Dead!

Craig, did you get ahold of him yet ? Did you purchase?

Posted by: Porsche Rescue Mar 30 2005, 02:28 PM

He's pretty quiet this morning. Could he be on the road to Seattle?

Posted by: sixnotfour Mar 30 2005, 02:36 PM

Thats what I thought .
I saw it at Chris.'s German in Bellvue 2weeks ago. Didnt know he was going to sell it.

Posted by: boxstr Mar 30 2005, 03:06 PM

Called the seller no answer and I tried three times, he told me last night I could reach him at that number, anytime??
