Description:

1970 Porsche 914

Thanks for stopping by to take a look at one very cool 1970 Porsche 914-8. This southern California hot rod is a very well executed V8 conversion. A lightweight, mid-engine, euro handling, 4 wheel disc brake Hot Rod? Let’s check it out!

Rarity

914s have not yet reached the lofty 911 numbers but can they be far behind? Repowered with a V8, this Beauty can hit Beast Mode pretty fast. Rust free CA car. We were particularly impressed with the initial build quality of this car. Often enough, they are cobbled together with whatever is available. They function but they are not necessarily well engineered.

This 914-8 is built the right way. Everywhere you look you see quality. The fit and finish of the body is excellent. The perfectly clean engine bay. The exquisitely engineered hidden cooling system. If you’ve seen a 914 V8 with long radiator hoses screwed to the underside of the floor pan, you will appreciate the beautiful execution here. The aftermarket gauge pods for the V8 look like they belong there. A mounted fire extinguisher within immediate reach. A very well planned and executed conversion makes this car special.

Inspection

Please come inspect this great car before the listing ends. We are happy to meet you and show her off. The details contained in this listing are based on our review of the vehicle and any errors or omissions are unintentional. Please keep in mind that this is a 52 year old used car. It will need periodic attention just as any classic does. It is not a new car and will not be fresh and perfect like that new soul sucking Camry your Aunt Betty drives. If that’s what you are after, this is not your era, nor your car so please move on to something boring.
