This particular auction is for a beautiful matching numbers 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 with the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. My son and I searched for an unrestored rust free 1974 914 2.0 for a couple of years and finally found this one. It sat inside a dry warehouse for years after the owner died and we bought it from his estate. It didn't need a complete restoration but we went overboard while refreshing it. We do top notch quality work. It is a beauty in the desirable Olympic blue color and is a fine example of a stock original 914. Scroll down for more photos.

ENGINE: Engines and engine bays are our favorites. A lot of time and money was spent in this area and the newly rebuilt original engine has less than 50 miles on it. Royal purple break in oil with zinc is in the sump and it was changed once after initial startup. We enjoy originality and elected to keep everything as manufactured at the factory including the Bosch fuel injection. The original engine is completely rebuilt and runs perfectly. Everything is new. Complete rebuild of heads using modern valves, seats and guides for non leaded gas, new pistons, rings, bearings, distributor, mounts, stainless steel fuel lines, battery, fuel injectors, etc, etc, etc. Engine number is 006589 - correct matching original numbers.

TRANSMISSION/CLUTCH: The original 5 speed transmission and clutch are all completely rebuilt - everything is new.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Beautiful, original paint excellent condition. We love tidy engine compartments and the photos speak for themselves. The hell hole was the only rust that had to be addressed. We cut out and replaced that area and the quality of the repair is as good as or better than any professional Porsche shop could do. The rust was contained in a relatively small area and did not migrate to other areas. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc, etc.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Solid, original paint condition as shown with no rust or damage. Original spare wheel. New spare tire matches the four that are on the car. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc.

SHEET METAL BODY PANELS: Straight, rust free panels throughout with excellent factory gaps. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc..

EXTERIOR BODY PARTS: All in excellent condition. Bumpers, bumper guards, bumper brackets, tail lights, grille, headlight assemblys and all the other trim are straight and in excellent condition. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc.

GLASS: All glass is original and in excellent undamaged condition with the exception of one small crack in the bottom corner of the windshield near the VIN number - hardly noticeable shown in one photo. Side windows roll up and down easliy and are tight. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc.

CHASSIS: The frame and chassis are in excellent, straight, unrusted, undamaged condition as shown. The "longs" are in excellent condition as is the "hell hole".

INTERIOR/UPHOLSTERY: Factory seats and all upholstery are in excellent original condition. Dash top is new, as the original one had minor cracks. Carpeting is new imported German salt and pepper loop. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc.

DASH AREA: Brand new dash top as shown. Everything works perfectly. All original gauges function perfectly. The radio is a working period AMFM stereo radio. Odometer shows 67,897 miles which are probably close to correct. The original pedal pad wear indicated that the mileage was not high and when the engine was taken apart it was so clean and unworn the mileage may be considerably lower.

PAINT: Repainted 6 months ago in the original Olympic blue color. We decided to use bulletproof Urethane enamel single stage paint - it is not clear coat. We prefer single stage paint for original look, longevity and originality. All new rubber, gaskets, seals, etc.

TIRES & WHEELS: Wheels are the excellent originals. Tires are new 195/65R15 FS Firehawk AS radials.

EXHAUST: Excellent original exhaust system.

SUSPENSION AND BRAKES: Brand new brake disks with rebuilt calipers. Brand new rear springs.

PAPERWORK: Free and clear title, 4" stack of receipts and Porsche Certificate of authenticity.

FACTORY ID PLATES: The Vehicle identification ID plates are intact and correct. The vehicle serial number is 4742901726 - correct matching numbers.

REVIEW: A beautiful turn key Porsche 914 2.0 in one year only Olympic Blue color. Needs nothing but a new owner.

VALUE: As of this date Hagerty Classic Cars values for a 1974 Porsche 914 2.0 are: #1 - $82,500. #2 - $41,500. #3. $20,000. #4. $12,500. This car would be closest to a #2 or above. INSPECTION OF CAR: It is difficult at best to describe something as complex as a vehicle and it is highly recommended that you personally inspect the car or have a 3rd party inspect it for you. I can accommodate anyone to show them the car. I have sold roughly 30 autos and motorcycles through ebay over the past 20 years with a solid 100 percent buyer satisfaction feedback. I give buyers an honest description, a better product and a better deal than they expect.

SHIPPING: Having shipped cars to all parts of the world over the years I can assist the buyer with transport or completely arrange it, only if necessary. However the cheapest and most efficient method is for the new owner to call a transport broker in their area and have them put out bids for the job. The car is in a secure place at my home and it can be collected there. I can assist with loading.

PAYMENT & BIDDING: Contact me prior to bidding if you have less than 5 feedbacks or your bid WILL be cancelled and you will be barred from any of my auctions. A $1000 non refundable deposit via Paypal is due immediately after the auction closes. N0 Paypal for the remaining balance and the balance is due within 3 days via wire transfer or express mail with a bank cashiers check or cash. No Paypal for the balance. Payment is to be made in advance of collecting the car. In advance, before collecting the car - This is an auction and you have plenty of time to inspect the car personally or have a 3rd party inspect the car - inspections are welcome and encouraged. Full payment is due before the car is collected. Winning the auction does not mean that you now have the privilege of coming to inspect the car to see if you like the color. If you cannot trust me, my reputation, the description and the extensive photos then it is your responsibility to inspect the car yourself or have a third party inspect it for you. When the auction is over, it is your car and payment is due at the close of the auction per these instructions. No Paypal for the balance.
