You've got the price wrong. The post says $19,000!
I think that'll buff out.

Looks like those Webbers might need a rebuild to!
Thant thing has been for sale forever.
Looks like 19K for a real six vin number.
Ad says it was involved in a fire in 1972. Was that before or after it fell off the cliff!

Spot on! Missed that. I probably wouldn’t have shared it if I hadn’t seen it wrong. Even at 1,900 it’s a dubious investment, IMHO.

someone would have to be very desperate for the chassis plate to get this little disaster because that's all it's worth !

Condition is listed as "fair". Clearly we have a difference of opinion on what one would decribe as "fair".

this went through an auction local to me for £1650, I dropped out at £1600 having calculated what it was worth to me
It was advertised by a "classic car specialist" a week later at £3600 and is on sale again but at the other end of the country, i suspect the 2 dealers swap stock to try to shift it for each other

Yup. If this is actually selling, then more people have probably had her than the local streetwalker.
Edit: or, she's still looking for a sucker, so same thing...

This is similar to what happened to 356's. Eventually 914's will fall into the same category of "there are no parts cars".
$19k seems high for a 914-6 VIN, but I've been away for a while. Wadda I know?

"Welcome to the auction of this lovely 1973 Porsche 914. It has the popular 2ltr twin carb engine "
I wonder what archeologist dug that car out. LOL
Maybe they are paying $19000 to take it off of their property. After all, if restored the value would be less than the cost.
