Vehicle Description
From 1969 through 1976 Porsche and VW collaboratively worked on a
mid engine sports car together called the 914. It was only
available in a two-seat targa configuration with either a 4 or
6-cylinder. Well, we all know where the 6-cylinder cars have gone
in value. Unfortunately this is not one of those but this
particular unit has been owned by the same family for over 32 years
and is claimed to be a three-owner vehicle from new. Purchased new
in Cincinnati eventually making its way to Northern MI as a
summertime driver. The mileage is believed to be accurate and
besides a so-so repaint in the early 1990's this 914 is very
original. Now, I am not going to tell you there is no rust, however
the floor pans appear to be very solid as does the front and rear
trunk with some surface rust but nothing through. The worst spot is
behind front passenger wheel on the leading edge between the pans
and rockers. The body itself is also relatively rot free. This car
starts perfectly, idles almost immediately and has nice power with
smooth shifting and braking. All the lights work as they should and
so does the heat. The original radio powers up but no sound. This
would be an excellent candidate for a restoration or just drive the
wheels off of it as it sits. We co recommend new tires as they seem
old and have some cracking. These 914's are incredibly fun to drive
and are only going up in value.
