Auction ends soon. Let me know if you have any last minute questions. As a longtime PCA member I try to make sure to get all the details on a car when I sell it out there so there are no surprises. I only buy great running and driving cars to begin with. Hopefully the detailed description, photos, and video give you great confidence.
Bumpers are black, car was painted white when I purchased the car. The original factory color is tangerine. The previous owner provided receipts for machining of the head along with many other parts and outsourced work and repairs. The long term owner performed much of the work on the car throughout the years. Also comes with original owners manual.

It would be nice to see the "hell hole", i.e., below the battery support box and the RR suspension pickup point. This is where the battery rusts out the frame on all 914's.
@Freemaha what a sweet little car. Looks like a nice one, good luck with the sale.
Hey everyone! Thanks for checking out my 914. This 1.7 liter fuel injected four is one of the best running most reliable 914s I have owned. Will make a great high quality as is or an incredible starting point for a next level restore. If you have any questions let me know. I will post cold start and walk around video soon. Happy bidding.
