This 1975 Porsche 914 project is a running project that was acquired by the selling dealer in 2021 and powered by a 1.8-liter flat-four paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Finished in red over black and plaid upholstery, the car is equipped with a removable roof panel, 15″ turbine-style alloy wheels, quadruple exhaust outlets, black impact bumpers, fog lights, and pop-up headlamps. This 914 is offered by the selling dealer at no reserve with a set of chrome wheel covers, spare parts, and a clean New Jersey title.
The car was finished at the factory in Scarlet Red (L31M) and features a black removable roof panel, pop-up headlights, fog lights, quadruple exhaust outlets, and black impact bumpers. The paint is chipped and scratched on various panels, the bumpers and top are blemished, the front valance is missing, the side mirror and windshield are cracked, and the selling dealer reports evidence of previous paintwork.
Turbine-style 15″ alloy wheels are mounted with 165R15 Goodyear Corsa GT tires, and a spare wheel and tire are stored in the front trunk. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes. A set of chrome wheel covers are included in the sale.
The cabin features fixed-back bucket seats upholstered in black vinyl with plaid cloth inserts and joined by a color-coordinated dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Equipment includes a center console with a padded armrest, wind-up windows, and a locking glovebox. The upholstery is torn, the air conditioner does not work, and the trim is peeling from the dash.
A leather-wrapped four-spoke steering wheel frames a central tachometer, a 150-mph speedometer, and a fuel level gauge. A clock and auxiliary gauges for oil temperature and voltage are mounted on the center stack. The five-digit odometer shows 75k miles, though total mileage is unknown.
The fuel-injected 1.8L flat-four was factory rated at 85 horsepower and 103 lb-ft of torque, and power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transaxle. An engine cover hinge is broken.
Corrosion is visible on the underside, additional photos of which are presented in the gallery below.
