1974 Porsche 914/ 2.0l on 2040-cars

This rare 1974 Porsche roadster (California car) comes with the desirable 2.0 liter engine. The engine was recently rebuilt, and has approximately 500 miles.The 2.0 liter is considered by many to be the most powerful engine in these cars, especially in the 73' and 74' Porsche 914 (4 cylinder). The earlier 914-6 cylinder is the only engine that came with more power! This great car comes with dual 40mm double barrel carburetors, and it runs good. It gets all the attention wherever it goes!!! There are no dents nor major scratches on the exterior. The paint is okay, but there are a few imperfections, especially on the front hood. There is no visible rust!!! The tires are good, with about 70% of tread left. The brakes work fine, and I have extra brakes/calipers and many other spare parts for this vehicle. Car also comes with the original owner's manual and with about 15 repair books covering the entire vehicle (motor, transmission, electrical, body, suspension, fuel system, etc). The lights (electrical) on this car work fine. Registration/tags are good through August of 2014 and car is insured. I have the title/ pink slip registered to me.

 The seats are Recaro/ Porsche seats from a 2000 Porsche Boxter or Carrera; they have seat covers and are a lot more comfortable than the stock seats! The carpet, door panels, the back pad, the dash and everything in the interior looks good. Doors open and close fine and all door handles and window cranks work fine. The front glass and windows are good without cracks. The rubber seals are there, and they keep the interior dry. The dash is the original one, and was refurbished (cracks were filled and sanded, & dash was dyed black). Car has a nice Alpine CD stereo, and it also has several speakers. Car also comes with a center console with 3 gauges (clock, voltage and temp). There is a newer spare tire in the front compartment and a jack in the rear.

 There are some minor things that might need attention, like the AC, heater and the speedometer. They are either not functional or they are simply not connected (could be a fuse, relay or a line not connected). Fuel and temp gauges work fine. Also, I recently noticed that the car has a really minor oil leak. I always drove this vehicle on the weekends, with the top off (I never needed any AC or heater). Since my baby was born about 7 months ago, I haven't been driving it much, and now It is time to pass it on. I regularly had a technician adjust the valves, carburetors and the timing. The car is 40 years old and it is in really good condition, overall! It is a survivor!! Potential buyers are welcome to come see the car. I am also including a anti-theft device and a water proof car cover with the purchase. Thanks for your interest.
