I recently came across a 75 1.8 for sale. The only problem is that the car is several hundred miles away.
I have correspoded with the owner and plan to see the car in a few weeks.

The owner describes the car as being in "very good condition." The car supposedly has very little/no
structural rust, battery tray rust, long. rust, etc. The car does have one very visible spot of rust
on the pass side rear qtr panel. Rust through caused by a loose piece of sealing foam. The car also has
the typical 1st gear synchro problems -- tough to get into 1st when stopped, shifts fine when shifted
slowly.

I am trying to feel out the value of this car. I am thinking $2500-2800. What would others offer for a car in
similar condition?

I have a couple of pics that i will post to give folks some idea of the car.

Hey any of you Denver boys know a 914 owner that Works for one of the local NAPA store's ??
My oldest son lives in Denver and gets his parts there and was just talking to him the other day....I'm just curious.


Sounds like Grant. Red 914 2.0/4 and works at NAPA. I don't think he's a member here though.

$2500 too much for a 90% rust-free (75 1.8) car?


It could be a good buy. Depends on what the rest of the car looks/runs/drives like.
