First delivered to the United States in 1975, this later 914 1. 8 litre model retains its original injection system, unlike many others that have been converted to carburettors. The 914 has been sympathetically backdated aesthetically with earlier style bumpers and a set of the desirable Fuchs alloys which fill the car’s arches beautifully. Engine breathing and has been improved with a quad Monza exhaust which amplifies the lovely engine note wonderfully.
A rust free dry-state example, the Porsche has recently enjoyed several months of engine and gearbox preparation with Kevin Clarke, the UKs preeminent Porsche914 expert (who has worked on the car since it arrived on British shores 2011).
Always finished in silver, in 2011 the car’s bodywork was refinished and still presents with only minor defects in places. The targa roof was re-trimmed a few years ago and remains in excellent condition. The interior is clean and appears original. This lovely looking Porsche 914 causes a stir wherever it goes, not only that it drives, steers, stops and sounds just as you’d expect from a 1975 Porsche. The 914 is offered with a full set of Factory workshop manuals.
This motor vehicle will be sold at auction with Dore & Rees in Frome, Somerset, on Saturday 17th June 2023. For more details contact the Motoring Department via the above details.
