Porsche 914 1. 7.
Black. but originally Canary Yellow. Build in December 69. a really early car!Runs and drives well. but does need work.
I bought this car earlier this year with all good intention of restoring it to it's forma glory.  but after much sole searching. debate and nagging from the other half I can't keep it.  
It's now registered in the UK and I have the V5.  It's running a 72 engine with the original Fi system. I have just had the alternator rebuilt and fitted a fresh battery.  
The gear linkage is good for a 914. and the brakes are okay. but a little soft (lets not forget it's 46 years old).  
The paint looks fine in the pictures but on closer inspection it has some crazing and various marks (although it does have a certain charm). Originally Canary Yellow it has been metallic Blue at some point and now Black.  The front chassis legs are very straight and the rear looks pretty good too and the boot floor is original with the appropriate stamp so I would suggest it has not been involved in any accidents.   Rot wise there are a few areas that need attention. but not major. depends how far you want to go with it; there is some corrosion in the hell hole. some surface on the inner rear boot floor. the floor pan has gone near the throttle pedal mount. and under the passenger seat. the O/S/ sill also has a hole in it.  
The engine runs sweet. but does have the usual leaks. it doesn't smoke and the fuel injection is all intact and running well.  
The interior is all original. but there is a split in the drivers seat and the dash is cracked.  
I have also fitted euro lenses. and made sure that all the correct hard to find parts for an early 914 are with the car; dash vent. correct steering wheel with early boss. door pockets. window guides with rollers not felt. nbsp;foot rest and so on.  I know its not perfect. but it's not as as bad as many I have seen advertised as good cars; I have been honest to avoid disappointment and time wasting.  These are getting harder to find. and the current exchange rate is making it even more expensive to import them!

Viewing and inspection welcome. but please do not ask me to send a million pictures. I won't be doing that.  if you're interested and need to know more drop me an email. or give me a call (07585 975757).
Thank you for looking 
Andy
