THIS IS A SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CAR WITH ZERO RUST, ORIGINAL PAINT, COMPLETELY REBUILT MOTOR AND TRANS WITH LESS THAN 1200 MILES SINCE COMPLETION. BRIEF HISTORY: I PURCHASED THIS 914 ABOUT ONE YEAR AGO FROM THE OWNER OF HERGESHEIMER MOTOR SPORTS IN SOUTHERN CAL. THEY ARE A PORSCHE ONLY PERFORMANCE SHOP. THIS WAS HIS PERSONAL CAR WHICH HE BUILT FOR COMPETITIVE AUTOCROSS. EVERYTHING TO MAKE THE CAR COMPETITIVE WAS DONE INCLUDING COMPLETE MOTOR REBUILD FROM THE CRANK UP, REBUILT FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM, OIL COOLER, NEW SUSPENSION (STRUTS, SHOCK, BUSHINGS, BRAKES, ETC.) I BOUGHT THE CAR SHORTLY AFTER BREAK IN MILES WHEN HE DECIDED TO MOVE FROM THE 914 SERIES TO TO A HIGHER COMPETITION CLASS. SHORTLY AFTER RECEIVING THE CAR MY BUSINESS WENT THROUGH SOME BIG CHANGES AND THE 914 WENT INTO HEATED STORAGE AT MY SHOP. I FIND MYSELF WITH STILL NO TIME TO GET HER OUT TO THE TRACK SO HAVE DECIDED TO SELL TO SOMEONE WHO CAN GET SOME ENJOYMENT FROM THIS AWESOME PORSCHE. THIS 914 IS AS SOLID AS THEY COME. NO ROT OR SOFT SPOTS, ORIGINAL BATTERY TRAY, PERFECT JACK POSTS AND HELL HOLE. LOOK CLOSELY AT THE PHOTOS. THE OIL COOLER INSTALLATION DID NOT INVOLVE ANY CUTTING OF THE BODY AND ALL PANELS ARE ORIGINAL AND RUST FREE. THE MOTOR DOES NOT LEAK, PERIOD! EVEN AFTER ONE YEAR OF STORAGE, NOT A SINGLE DROP. BEING SET UP FOR COMPETITION, THE HEAT EXCHANGERS HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH HEADERS AND A S.S. MAGNAFLOW EXHAUST, THEREFORE NO HEAT. THE TRANNY IS COMPLETELY REBUILT AND SHIFTS PERFECT. A NEW HIGH PERFORMANCE CLUTCH WAS JUST INSTALLED AS WELL. THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL BUT QUITE FADED IN PLACES. ADDITIONAL ITEMS INCLUDE: POLISHED FUCHS 5 POINT RACING HARNESS 7 CORE OIL COOLER POLY BUSHINGS LOWERED SUSPENSION BRIDGESTONE POTENZA 205 50R15S K&N FILTER EXTENDED SUMP THIS IS A VERY FAST 914 WHICH HANDLES PERFECTLY AND SOUNDS AWESOME. IT'S FLAT IN THE CORNERS AND HAS SUPER TIGHT STEERING. NO RATTLES, NO SMOKE, NO LEAKS AND NO RUST. THIS CAR OUT PERFORMS MY 93 964 OFF THE LINE AND IN THE CORNERS. THIS WOULD ALSO BE AN EASY CONVERT BACK TO ORIGINAL. NEW PAINT, NEW BUMPER RUBBER AND HEAT EXCHANGERS WOULD MAKE THIS A TRULY EXCEPTIONAL CAR. THE CAR COMES WITH SPARE PARTS AND A CLEAR TITLE. NO RESERVE! PLEASE CALL WITH QUESTIONS. 269-469-4281 ASK FOR ANTHONY I'VE ENCLOSED A VIDEO TO GIVE A BETTER VISUAL. PLEASE EXCUSE THE SOUND QUALITY.

Although this 914 was built to be competitive in auto cross, it is not a hopped up track car. The car is entirely stock with only a very few exceptions. Headers, oil cooler and upgraded suspension. The motor rebuild was to spec with all new parts but no radical internal part changes or over bores. The suspension is slightly stiffer than stock and the car is slightly lower. It idles perfectly and is very reliable and mechanically excellent. I would drive across country, no problem.
