Here's one of those "estate sale" cars that has been sitting for 10 years. Anyone go look at it? Wasn't someone looking for an original black 6?

Hmmm, I'm close to Granada Hills. I might have to go take a look.

Too bad the Ebay bidders will probably bid this up to unrealistic numbers... Looks like it needs a bunch of TLC.

Update. The guy emailed me back. The car is at a Mechanics shop which is closed this weekend. It won't be able to be viewed until Tuesday. I should be in the area Tuesday to check it out prior (I think) to the auction end.

IMHO, the bidding is already too high for 4 days of auction left and a car that nobody has personally seen which has some sort of front end repairs that can be visually seen by a third party.

I bet it has been 'clipped' like the yellow car I have now.

I seen that car in 1998. The owner is a 914 nut. He owns quite a few. Real nice guy.
The car was kind of rough, but fired right up.
I didn't go over it very carefully do to the fact it wasnt was I was looking for. Sean also knows the car. You can ask him for more details if your interested in it.

I drove this car a couple years ago, haha, tod had to remind me. I didn't look at the pics. The guy IS a 914nut he has all sorts of stock and funky modified cars. This car is rough. It smokes like a waitress in a truck stop diner. It needs a full resto. To me it's worth about 4 or 5 k. He had the car listed at 10k at the time. I offered him a low, low price that he didn't take.

It's well above it's value already.

Which sucks. I've been looking for a black six. Last night the high bidder was "a914luvr". Isn't that Glenn Sager?

Malmz, can you bring a digital camera when you go check it out and take a bunch of better pics? I'd really appreciate it.

Was this black 6 for sale at auction recently ( 10/04/03) in west hollywood. R L Spears auctions. I posted about an ad in the LA Times for a bunch of Porsches and one was a black 914-6?

Don't kill yourself to take a look at this one. I'd so love to find an original black six but it seems like this one is already bid up over what it's worth.

I hope whoever is the high bidder on this goes over the car before money changes hands.
It's not worth it.
I saw this car and drove it three years ago and it wasn't worth it then. I knew less about them then, too!

$15K would be a great deal for the Adriatic 6 don't you think? It looks very clean and well kept.

Then again I live in the rust belt....everything looks good...

True but that car needs like *everything* refurbished. Instead of buying that chassis (currently 9K) I'd rather do a conversion. I could find a super clean 70-73 1.7 and put a world class paint job on it for $9K.
