Plus it is a 5 spead!

I guess the speads are rolling by itself, one friend pushing, two friends pushing, towed by a car that runs, and trailered.

I'm glad it is on the other coast. That is just the kind of mess that I would fall prey to owning.

You and me both.

The bad part is it's in trailering distance from me.

Forget the engine, that is a rust-free 914. I've never seen one before!

I would have set the reserve price at $2016.

Holy crap. The difficulty of ownership level for that one went straight to 'masochist'.

That oddball looking van in the background really doesn't help. That car looks really nice. I also have never seen a rust free 914. A twin turbo Maserati? Eh, how hard could it be to get it completed? I'd be dumb enough to try if that car were closer.

Uh, radical engine swap and no pictures of the engine bay? The front trunk better be full of faith.

In reply to irish44j:

Oops. Ebay fail.

Said pictures show no halfshafts and a steering wheel decomposed down to the steel hoop. Neat.

If you use the zoom feature you wont like a lot of what you see. That thing is crusty. I don't get engine swaps where the car is a total turd and there is no real intent or budget to remedy that bit.

You'll need to log in to post.
