Description:
1971 Porsche 914 out of long storage original rare ORANGE paint
This 914 has been stored inside probably 1/2 of its life & certainly for the many years I have owned it so fortunately it IS NOT all rusted throughout like most un-restored 914's are found with. You will notice in the pictures that I DID NOT attempt to make this 914 appear to be in better condition than it is, if anything because I have never washed, vacuumed or cleaned this car it looks worse than it actually is so just remember that when you are looking over the pictures and bidding. It's front + rear storage areas look great, the rest of the car looks good with just a small amount of body work needed. Any rust is so minor that I bet it would be almost insignificant with any kind of restoration labor or a repaint back to its original orange color cost. I hope that makes sense because it sounded better when I said it out loud.With that said this 914 certainly needs cleaned up, tuned up & worked on over a couple weekends to have it ready to be driven daily but to most Porsche fans it is just ready for an easy make-over or even a quick restoration . What I mean by that is everything appears to be present & nothing is in that bad condition (especially when you consider its almost 50 yrs old)The drivers door & front window need replaced along with both doors panels, but the armrest & chrome handles are present along with the cars original chrome trim pieces that you can see in the pictures laying in the trunk or its front storage area . Everything else seems to be present making it an easy car for even the novice car guy to freshen up or restore.When I parked this 914 it was running, with clutch & transmission shifting fine, during the first year of storage the the original 40+ yr old coil went bad so I replaced it with a new one. The following year it wasn't getting fuel to the injectors so perhaps a fuel filter or pump but with the gas smelling like turpentine & no time to fix it I have simply been turning it over with the coil wire unplugged over the past 5+ yrs to keep the engine lubricate, If I have time this week I will try to drain the gas tank & add some fresh fuel & replace the fuel filter but you just count on doing the usual things that these German air-cooled 4 cyl engines require after sitting for many years without being driven.If you take into consideration that this 914 is an un-restored 48 yr old sports car that has been sitting in different warehouses & garages for 20+ yrs then you wont be disappointed with its condition and its final bid price especially since the air-cooled Porsche cars are constantly being called the highest appreciating classics by most every collector.*** The Quick Read,Many Porsche collectors even those will small collections have become millionaires over the past 10 years simply because they owned some air-cooled Porsche classics & although this 914 isn't going to make you rich overnight like a 912, or 930 Turbo might but because it came from the factory in the most sought after color ( ORANGE ) and it is a highly optioned example of the top of the line 914 offered in 1971 ............I can say with absolute certainty that whoever buys this Porsche will more than double their investment . With today's 401, mutual funds & savings accounts investors would be considered EXPERTS or Wizards if they could guarantee even 10% on your investment and no money manager would ever think of guaranteeing 20% but here is a chance for even the beginner with a small budget to make 100%- 300% and beyond . So watch this auctio, bid and feel free to come inspect this Porsche anytime in Salem Va. 24014,my # 540-650-0401 please text or email me if at all possible simply because of all the telemarketers & automated systems calling that number just as soon as this ad post online.
Because I need the money is my reason for selling so there will no reserve and this will be an HONEST AUCTION therefore I encourage you to contact eBay if you think otherwise. For that reason, I ask anyone with a new eBay account or a ZERO feedback account to please message me through eBay giving me your contact information & allow me to contact you PRIOR to bidding otherwise I may cancel your bids for that reason.
I have tried to describe this Porsche accurately & to the best of my own personal ability but with any vehicle that is almost 50 years old it would be impossible for me to know every single fact or flaw and that is why I recommend you come personally or have someone come inspect it personally for those who have never bought a vehicle off of eBay without seeing it first . For that reason I will make this 914 available to be seen up till 11pm every day of this auction. I will take more pictures or shoot a video if you ask me to, whatever you want just ask prior to bidding if you are not sure. I will refund any deposits or money paid if your unhappy at time of pick-up, so lets have an auction that everyone is happy with! GOOD LUCK
