1976 Porsche 914 Base Coupe 2-door 2.0l Targa on 2040-cars
Vero Beach, Florida, United States
|
This 38yr.old beauty has been a cherished part of our family for the past 38 years. I’m only the second owner of this Porsche, having purchased it in March of 1981. It has been garaged for my entire ownership. The car underwent a complete restoration 24 years ago, with a couple of minor ones in the past 12 years to ensure the quality of the car. It was a daily driver and a weekend SCCA slalom racer, then following the restoration a sunny Sunday car with historic plates and limited mileage. I decided to make it a driver’s car with upgrades that would enhance the driving experience, as opposed to a 100% OEM Original car as would have left the factory in 1976.
My age and car storage issues are the only reasons for the reluctant sale of this little gem.
All receipts are available for all the major servicing for the past 38 years, including the original Owner’s Manual and Original Window Sales Sticker! I have been a Porsche Club of America since purchasing the 914. This organization has been a terrific resource for maintaining and enjoying the very best the 914 has to offer. The car has only been driven 30,821 miles since the full restoration. Here is a partial list of all the many things done to the car over the years:
Complete bare metal body restoration and Guards Red repaint New carpet replacement, including both front and rear trunks Koenig Racing Bucket Seats Factory Center Console with Temp, Oil and Pressure gauges Alpine/Polk Stereo System with front trunk mounted subwoofer Weber carburetor conversion Rebuilt engine with slight overbore cylinder liners and larger pistons Lightened flywheel Stainless Steel Heat Exchangers Reinforced Battery Tray with Battery Cutoff Switch Monza Exhaust Epsilon 3-pc. Modular Wheels with Goodyear GT+4 tires Koni Shocks Automotion front and rear Sway Bars and suspension bushings Rebuilt Pedal box with Delrin Bushings New fuel pump New metal fuel line New gearshift kit Re-built Alternator Factory Front Spoiler Rear 916 Spoiler Electronic trunk release Comes with nose bra and car cover
The car recently had an engine tune-up and runs beautifully. I would heartily invite any inspection and scrutiny of the 914 and would encourage a serious buyer or their agent to come and see and drive the car. The Porsche is also advertised elsewhere, so I reserve the right to end this eBay listing if the car sells locally.
A $500.00 PayPal deposit is required within 48 hours of the winning bid. Following the receipt of deposit, buyer must contact me for the terms of the balance owed via a mutually agreed payment method. Car is located in Vero Beach, Florida. I could possibly assist with transportation arrangements, but buyer collection of the car is much preferred. Please email with any further questions or inquiries.

1974 Porsche 914 EV conversion still looks good
Thu, Jan 23 2014Looking through the pages of the EV Album is a great way to learn about the breadth and depth of the electric vehicle community. Branching well beyond the three dozen or so electric vehicles that are currently sold by major automakers in the US, EV Album showcases lots of DIY conversions of all types. A 1995 Fiat Cinquecento? Check. A 1992 Kewet Eljet 2? No problem. The site's old-fashioned looks (it was started in 1997) show just how long people have been passionate about their EVs. Many of the cars are throwbacks to a previous time and we found a prime example of that, a converted 1974 Porsche 914 (EV Album page here) this week. Now powered by a Prestolite MTC4001 Series Wound DC motor and some flooded nickel-cadmium batteries, the 914 has a top speed of 80 miles per hour and a range of 35 miles. But only "if you are taking it easy," of course. The motor has a peak output of 60 horsepower and 25 hp continuous. Converted over 600 hours (!) to electric power at a cost of $10,000, it is now owned by Charlie Garlow of Maryland. The car is on display at the Washington Auto Show this week and serves as a great reminder of what most EV drivers used to have to do to drive emissions free.

Drive-up bank robbery perpetrated with Cayenne and WRX
Sat, 14 Sep 2013Thieves carried out what appears to be a movie-script-perfect robbery of a bank in Sydney, Australia early on Friday morning, using two stolen high-performance vehicles in the process.
At around 11:15 AM local time, in near mid-day light, reports say that two men in masks smashed into the side of a Westpac bank in a confirmed-stolen black Porsche Cayenne. The perpetrators were armed with sledgehammers according to witness reports, and took only about five minutes to take what they were after inside of the bank.
The rapid getaway was executed in a Subaru WRX, also confirmed as a stolen vehicle, while witnesses snapped camera phone images of the illicit goings on. One Twitter user posted a few of the images to his social media feed; you can take a look at them in our small gallery below. Follow on down for the full video report, from The Sydney Morning Herald.
Porsche 911 GT3 RS facing delay over GT3 fire problems?
Mon, 24 Mar 2014Porsche has never been afraid to introduce variants of its cars. However, its even higher spec, next-generation 911 GT3 RS may be delayed from its planned launch this summer while the engines in the standard GT3s (pictured above) are replaced.
A delay isn't certain, but executives want to make sure the high-strung mill is no longer a problem before they press forward with another model using it. Germany's Auto Motor und Sport asked Porsche CEO Matthias Müller about pushing back the launch, and he responded that it was too early to say. The company's current focus is making sure the engines get fixed and working on internal measures to prevent this kind of flaw in the future.
When fires claimed two 911 GT3s in Europe, Porsche initially stopped the model's sales and asked owners to stop driving them. It finally diagnosed the blazes as being caused by a loose screw on a connecting rod, which then resulted in crankcase damage and an oil leak. The company is replacing the engines on all 785 affected cars. A source told Autoblog that under 200 customers were actually affected, and the other cars were either at port or dealer lots. Hopefully, the recall doesn't postpone the road-going GT3 RS too far because we want to see what Porsche has up its sleeve.
