I have been restoring Porsche 911's and 914's for about 12 years now and know a good project from a nightmare. This is a good project car. The 914's are becoming more valuable so if you can do a reasonable part of this project yourself you can actually come out on the plus side instead of the typical upside down projects. These Porsche are super easy to work on and assemble compared to a 911. Parts are readily available as well as lots of help from enthusiasts in places like 914world.com, 914club.com and Pelicanparts.com. I bought this stalled project car from the previous owner thinking I would get to reassembly by this winter. Pair a body shop that cannot find the time to get to it with my other 4 project cars not moving as fast as I would like and I realize that I will not get to this for quite some time. The previous owner bought this low mileage 914 totally intact and original in 2011. He soon after discovered some rust and decided to take on the repairs himself. He disassembled everything to be sure no rust was missed. He fixed the infamous hell hole, right longitudinal, the inner left rear quarter panel and inner front left wheel well in the rear outer corner. He cut the rear left quarter off because for easier to access to the inner quarter wall and because he intended to add GT flares. The project pretty much stalled there and I picked it up about 6 months ago. As you can see in the pictures the rear quarter panel and a piece he removed from the front fender need to be put back in place as well as a piece of the floor pan. This will be a quick fix for someone that knows how to weld. The battery tray is included and will have to be welded in place as well. The car includes just about everything you need to put it back together. From what I have noticed it is missing the dash top pad and the rear window. Front windshield Is there and I believe new. The engine is complete with the original fuel injection with computer with harness. The trans is 5 speed and still mounted to the engine. The balance of the body is in remarkably good condition with no rust in the front or rear trunks. The targa top is solid. The rear taillights are pretty decent but one will need to be glued back together. The original bumpers are included as are some nice parts that the previous owner collected. Most items are shown in the pictures. At the buy it now price I will include some earlier chrome bumpers and a rear fiberglass lower valance and new set of stainless steel fuel lines. The car and parts are located in Kenilworth, New Jersey and can be seen Monday - Friday between 8:00 AM and 5:30 PM. I will assist if you want to ship this car. I can have it delivered within 50 miles of Kenilworth but car must be paid for before I load it up on a trailer.I think I have covered it but if you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks and Happy Bidding! THIS WAS INCORRECTLY LISTED AS A 1973. IT IS A 1976.
