Road Scholars has this 73 2.0 up for sale on their site...
http://www.theaircooledguys.com/Inventory/...61/Default.aspx Supposedly only 3,700 original miles... And who can spot the first three "Idiosyncrasies" of this supposedly "New" 2.0??? There are probably more, but I stopped counting after three very obvious ones... So, if you have seen this one in person, tell us what you think... "Fake or Real Deal"???

Sorry to say that that is our old 1974 914 1.8 that we totally made like new with all new parts able to be ordered from Porsche back then. We started with a pristine 68,000 mile mostly original paint car (except for the hood and cowl) installed by old girlfriend Mary's great running 2.0 engine after painting the sheetmetal and cleaning it up, and then added all of the 2.0 "goodies" including five brand new fuchs alloys and new chrome bumpers, AND new instruments including new speedo at zero miles (that is where they get the 3000 miles was driven little after we did our job on it!) Anyone who knows 914s can see that this is far from being an original car and the dead giveaway is the stud in the right front of the rear trunk to hold the charcoal cannister!!!!!! We entered this car in many concours competitions and always won, but NEVER represented the car as an original 2.0! We sold this car finally about five? years ago and have not seen it since. So here it is again. CERTAINLY not three thousand miles!
