noice Ansa zorst, got a sound clip?
crsedge ·
Yes, my 914 does have an Ansa Exhaust which was imported also by previous owner, but alas I'm not that gifted to be able to produce a sound clip.
Needless to say, has a very nice tone.........

Addition: The guys from Aporsch-A-Part said they installed a 911 front end in this car before previous owner purchased........would explain the handling!

Is it the original 914 motor with the correct heads etc?

I think they all had that... Only the stud pattern was changed (914/6)
Craig Torrens ·
the 911 brakes are bigger than the stock 914 setup
crsedge ·
Yes it is the original 1800 914 motor with correct heads
crsedge ·
.....and post 1973 had 5 stud pattern on 914s, but was standard on all 914/6s (914/6 ceased production 1971).
This is a 1972 model with later 5 stud discs fitted with Fuchs.

Love the number plates!!!
SPRINTSTAR ·
I can assure you this is an excellent car,I know this because my parents used to own it. The body was immaculate with not a spot of rust before we had it re-sprayed in the original Manila yellow,can't speak for the mechanical condition now but again,it was imaculate at the time.If I wasn't restoring the 56 Ghia right now, I would have bought it. I had a hell of a lot of fun in this car. It's an absolute blast to drive,even better than our 911 or 944! Mid-engined car just kicks-ass!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not exactly sure but imagine they may have had some rust, but they may also have been replaced as part of the full restoration process (was done prior to my purchase of car). Needless to say now, the chassis is spotless 🙂

SPRINTSTAR ·
Floorpans were not rusty but a part of the sill were,they were cut and replaced with new metal. Body never had any rust.
crsedge ·
Car is immaculate, needs no money spent on iit!

Have you tried ebay, unique cars, autotrader etc etc ?
crsedge ·
It is on Carsales, have placed in latest VWMA, and will be placing in Trading Post next week. Will look at other options as well as you have suggested.
Had plenty of emails, but only tyre-kickers in reality. 🙁
There must be a genuine buyer out there who wants a great 914- somewhere?!?
