1974 Porsche 914

[zipedit]BARN FIND!!
This unique Porsche 914 1.8L in Ivory White has been with the same family for the last 15 years. The vehicle reportedly ran 6-7 years ago. During the last few years, the vehicle had rooted itself behind the house. Upon rescuing this beauty, the vehicle was loaded on a trailer and driven to a nearby car wash. As you can see in the photos and videos, it was washed of its sins to start a new life or to be sold off piece by piece for other donors in need. Once home, a thorough vacuum and wipe down of the interior compartments revealed a lovely interior with seats showing minor separation along a couple seams. We connected a battery and were able to confirm the motor turns with ease, the headlights move up and down, and the running lights, turn signals and dash lights work. If you wanted to make this 914 roadworthy, it certainly could be done...as long as you have deep pockets and a good amount of patience!
The brightwork, glass, interior, and paint are in fair to good condition. Several other items to note include Stainless SSI heat exchangers, aftermarket muffler, and a clean Indiana title with actual mileage reported.
