From Mike:
1974 914 6 Conversion Rotisserie, bare metal body work for repaint. It is not perfect. If you want to go to Pebble Beach, keep looking, but it is a virtual rust free chassis. Antenna hole welded up and I can't bring myself to drill another! The paint has some chips and bug bites but is quite presentable. Steel flares butt welded Chrome bumpers redone about 4 years ago with fresh bumper tops. 17x7.5 and 17x9 on rear with Michelin Pilot tires less than 2 years old. For you "Fuch-er lovers", I will include a set of 16x8/7 wheels Aluminum cross member,20mm(turbo 911) front sway and stock 914 sway bar in rear, 19mm 911 front torsion bars, 150lb springs on coilover adjustable rear shocks, Boxster brakes with functioning parking brake on rear, Shocks replaced with body work, suspension bushings sized in front and rear suspension, Stainless steel fuel lines replaced factory plastic lines thru the cabin. 901 side shift, LSD, billet intermediate plate, etc in good shape. Getty 5 gauge dash, leather upholstery, German square weave carpet less than a year old, Fiberglass door panels recovered, Blaupunkt is NOS 1973 or so, AM only which was modified on the inside for AM/FM or memory stick with 40 amps of power to each of the four channels, face of radio looks absolutely stock. Windshield is almost new. ECU under the passenger seat. Driving lights have separate circuit breaker with 8 ga. wire to front and the solenoid is switched by the stock system which takes the amperage load off the stock system. Some new LED lights would remove the load problem and would be my next thing to tackle if I was going to keep it. Those big driving lights get hot! Euro, 930/20, 3.2 with stock 10.3 compression pistons, Web 20/21 cam, chipped, B&B SS headers with heat and 1 3/4" primaries, rally 2 in/2 out muffler. Stock oil tank and location. Auxiliary Mocal oil cooler under rear of car with thermostat, and fan. Original 6 front motor mount, A/C mount on engine, but no compressor, Wes Hildreth, H&H Enterprises Plano,TX, disassembled the engine about 8 years ago to inspect, repair and replace as required. Wes was the dealership's "bench mechanic" who rebuilt engines and transmissions for the Porsche store here in Dallas and then opened his own shop. God called Wes home about 4 years ago. Car is good to go anywhere and will go there very, very quickly for a 914 and enjoys the reliability of the 3.2 stock fuel injection. Car has not been tracked for DE or raced. I had a vintage 914 E production car I raced with CVAR for over a decade to satisfy my aggression and testosterone issues!! This car is a nice high speed cruiser. Fifth Gear in Denton did a 4 wheel alignment a couple years back and corner balanced it. I turn 70 soon and health is an issue. I will purchase something abit higher off the ground with air conditioning and a warranty. This is the last of 5 P cars to go and it will be hard. |
