Vehicle Detail
1972 PORSCHE 914 / 1.7L OEM 2 OWNER CAR / COMPLETE RESTORATION ON THIS 914 12 YEARS AGO Every summer we purchase a 914 to sell for the season. We had decided to have a 914 in stock this summer back in May. I have been looking for a very solid 914 for over two months. There just are not many nice shape 914’s out there anymore. We finally found a very nice rock solid 914. This car is out of PA. and is in great condition. This car has had a complete restoration 12 years ago. We went to check out the car figuring that it had to be in decent shape because of the restoration work 12 years ago and sure enough….it was. If you are interested in a nice 914 this one is one to consider. Old 911’s, 912’s, 914’s, are subject to rust issues and rust is like cancer….this car is rust free. We found a very nice very solid 914 for you……If you would like the car a specific color other than yellow please contact us we can paint the car over for you... Well...We put the little bugger on the lift and proceeded to clean the entire underside of the car with parts cleaner....after a few cases we finally have the underside of this car cleaned up and looking nice and clean again. Repainted most everything that was blk and also tightened all nuts and bolts under the car and front-end. This 914 is now ready to enjoy. Comes with the original blk top and all 4 original rims, why they arent on there...I couldnt tell ya...lol. We took her out for her test drive and she performed perfect. Good exceleration, handeled turns like the 914 should, and road smooth as glass at 100-MPH. We're done with her and she's ready for delivery.still left to do.....put two new mirrors on..put two new foglights in...install new key ignition...mabey a new readio with good speakers too....We reserve the right to close this Ad at anytime, the car is listed other places as well as locally in our area. $500.00 deposit required with in 48 hours of Ad closing, balance due upon pickup of the car. $500.00 deposit is Non-refundable CONTACT INFORMATION315-480-0200 Payment We accept….CASH, BANK WIRE TRANSFER INTO OUR BUSINESS ACCOUNT, OR CERTIFIED BANK CHECK….We do NOT accept BANK LOAN CHECKS…..CASH…take car, title & bill of saleBANK WIRE TRANSFER…..Take car, title & bill of saleCERTIFIED BANK CHECK…Take the car, title & bill of sale after check clears…When speculating the correct mileage on these 944’s one has to look at many different things. Some of the things I look for are as follows.Driver side seat track….If this track has rust on it, it could only be one of two things…the car was driven in the rain, or the car was stored outside. These are the only reasons why this track would have rust on it.Condition of the driver seat….The driver side seat can basically tell you the complete story of the cars mileage. It does not matter what the odometer says look for the overall condition of the seat as well as the wear in it. Any Porsche with 75,000 miles or less should be in almost perfect condition. Cars fewer than 50,000 miles should be NEW. Saw a 944 being sold as 27,000 miles and the seats had creases all over them. How do you get so many creases in the seat at that kind of mileage?Upper rear body mounts….There are two rubber body mounts located in the rear of the car above the rear shocks. These body mounts will always show the true age and mileage on the car. Very rarely does anybody change these items.Far end of the Cam tower….Most cars are leaking oil from the rear of the Cam tower cover. If you have a leak here it’s not just a simple fix.Oils sending uni….This unit has a copper crush washer on it and usually needs to crank a ¼ turn or so.Look at the front main engine seal…..This is located directly under the pulley in the front of the engine. If you have a leak here it’s not just a simple fix.Rear gas lines and filer….In the rear of the car the gas lines and break lines run along the bottom of the car and the bend and turn over the rear passenger side Control arm. The lines and the gas filter are right out in the open. If the cars has been driven in bad weather you will see the corrosion up in this area and the lines.Front end….There are many places to check and go over in the front end. Control arms, sway bar, tie rods, the steering rack, front struts, power steering pump, compressor, alternator, and always pull the cover and examine the belts and rollers for the Cam and Balance shaft.Odometer gear….The odometer gear has most likely broken over the life of the car, and if it hasn’t yet..IT WILL. The type of plastic the gear was made out of chemically reacted with the type of grease they used to lube it. This oil on the gear eats away the plastic gear….so if it has been replaced….when…and if not, change it because the gear will be soft and rotten. Fuses and Relay….Anybody advertising a Porsche and has the balls to say something does not work…it’s probably a fuse or relay already knows that’s what it’s NOT….If some option only needed a fuse or relay why would the owner just fix the items and charge more for the car????? Fuse/relay/ always more to it than thatDME and Alarm Brain boxes….These items are located under the carpet in the front on the passenger side of the car. Pull back the carpet and remove the wood board. Now you can inspect the area as well as the two units themselves. There should be NO evidence of water, moisture, or any other form of dampnessRear shifting linkage….On the manual transmission 944 you want to get the car up on a lift and inspect the area ABOVE the rear tranny. This is where your bushings and linkage are located for shifting the gears to the car. These rubber pieces over the years get warn and even broke leaving the car with sloppy shifter and loose gear shifting.Aluminum vs. steelAny place on the car that aluminum meets steel is going to have a special washer. These two different metals cannot touch or it will start major corrosion. I always look at these areas to see if the correct washers are in place or if some NON Porsche mechanic did a job and threw regular washers in.Any and all bodyworkIf the car has been in an accident and repaired. Look to see if all body work was done professionally or not. If you find any shortcuts on a Porsche it is a bad sign CONTACT INFORMATION 315-480-0200
