I bought this as an unfinished project a year ago. It was built up on a salvage title shell. On closer inspection it has a new front drivers side corner on it. I finished it up, drove it around the canyons (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) and did a few track days so now is time to move on.
1970 2.2T engine with pressure fed carrera tensioners, very strong running, good compression and oil pressure, rebuilt 40 weber ida's, firewall mount, velios oil tank, braided oil lines, headers with stock 911 banana muffler, good side shifter trans and clutch. 911 vented brakes all round with an aluminum 911 front crossmember, koni's all round, front sway bar, braided hoses. 7 and 8 x 15 OG fuchs wheels The body was originally silver but has been painted black all over and under quite well. Fenders have been gently radiused. There was some hell hole rust when i got it but i welded in a new panel plus a new battery tray and support. No other rust anywhere as its a blue plate CALIFORNIA CAR. I had the targa roof painted smooth black to match the body. The interior is mostly stock but i added a low pressure oil warning lamp on top of the dash and did an electronic tach upgrade in the OG housing. As its a salvage title i'll sell for the parts value of $8000 Ideally you'd swap all the parts onto a nice clean unrepaired shell like i intended to do or just drive it as i ended up doing as its so much fun as is.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) I guess it the motor and other components needed work, then maybe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Then again, I haven't really looked up how much it would cost to convert my teener into a 914-6 clone. Well, I hope you find continued enjoyment with the car. |
