1972 Porsche 914 Description

It appears a number of body parts were replaced back in the 90’s. The Welds are clean and solid. (Please see photos).

The following body parts have been replaced:

  • · The Spare Tire Separator In the front trunk/passenger side.

  • · The Floor of the front trunk

  • · The passenger side fender.

Previous owner had installed a short shift kit. The bushings and linkage for the shifter are smooth and correct. However, I personally prefer a good old fashioned long throw side shift set up. I would advise the new owner to think about investing in a side shift conversion.

Original upholstery. There are a number of small splits and cracks in the seat upholstery. I would advise the new owner to consider investing in an upholstery kit with Auto Atlanta.

The motor runs smooth and strong (Well strong for an 80 HP 1.7L !!! :~) . )

The Transmission shifts correctly and is very smooth.

The car was painted back in 2000. It is a Mazda color code for the silver paint.

The VIN numbers for the driver's door jamb, the Windshield tag, and the VIN plate in the front trunk all match.

The VIN number for the front passenger fender does not match.

The VIN number for the engine does not match.

The Car is perfectly roadworthy.

The Motor, transmission, suspension, brakes, electrics for lighting, heater, radio, everything works as it should.

I am confident that I could drive this car to California and back again with no issues.
