Vehicle Detail
My father, a Porsche enthusiast since the early 1950s, found and bought this car in 2004 for a friend who lived in Oregon. After that friend passed away in 2011, my father bought it back and had it shipped to his home in Minnesota where it was stored in a garage and never driven in the winter. When he got sick in 2012, several of his friends from the Nord Stern region of the PCA volunteered to clean the car and give it a thorough tune up. See the article and photos in their Oct 2012 Newsletter (http://www.nordstern.org/img/newsletters/201210.pdf). There are additional photos here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1xKp2f5f_r1ZzFWNU9mOERpS2s&usp=drive_web. If there's something you'd like to see that isn't pictured, let me know and I'll see what I can do. The car looks, runs, and drives great. There is rust on the undercarriage, and while I don't know the extent of it beyond what is seen in the photos, I know my father had two replacement pieces for the exhaust system that he wanted sold with the car. As he wished, they're included (photos on the google drive) I know very little about the mechanical specifics of this vehicle or 914s in general, but I'm happy to try and find answers for any questions you may have. I'll be driving from Minneapolis back to the Denver area a few days after the auction ends. It might be possible to tow the car behind me if the buyer lives somewhere along my route.On May-01-14 at 16:01:39 PDT, seller added the following information: 5/1 Update: Upon request, I check out the electrical -- head lights, fog lights, tail lights, turn signals, backup lights, interior light (between seat backs), horn, and wipers are all working. I drove it around a bit and it shift very smoothly.
