Today as I was driving around town I saw a black 1975 914 for sale on a small used car lot.
The dealer has no idea what he has. He thought it was a 1971 911!!! He said that it is owned by the Weseloh family. Weseloh owns a large Chevy delarship here, and I believe some other dealerships as well. He says he is selling it on consignment for Weseloh, and Weseloh wants 22K. (Obviously, he is dreaming. I think it's a 5-6K car, maybe, tops). I checked the car out... pretty bad, but someone here may find it of interest. I didn't start the car, but apparently it runs. Here's some pix. .

My .02 on it......
#1-SSI ht xchngrz....1.7/1.8 #2-exhaust either newer or repainted #3-Cheapo rear shocks.. #4-new/replaced carpet.. #5-the sail vinyl is missing... #6-a Cali car would have the 'bumperett's..... Sooooo all n all...points to a once attempted resto.... some observations though.. the tranny is wayyyy to clean.. possible rebuild..(check for oil under car).. same with the motor...heads are really clean.. I guess some doc's on stuff would be grand... And get it up in the air.... get the VIN off the car and the engine #... Is all of the injection stuff still avail?? AND drive it for Giggles!! Have fun...my take would be 4 to 5 G...... yeah would need to see it in person... but quite a bit has been done to it.. |
