Description of 1976 Porsche 914 Targa |
This the car the 914 should have been. With a reliable Raby Type IV engine dyno at 155hp and only 12000 miles on the engine and rebuilt trans. The car is reliable, fast and fun. Bilstein shocks, 5 lug Fuchs and a new leather interior. No rust, rotisseried, and a California car until 2012.PLUS included is also the original, matching numbers engine that was running great, then pickled and put on a crate when the Raby engine was installed. Google Raby Aircooled Technology and you will see that the engine alone is $20k with a two year wait.Car is driven in good weather regularly, so it is a 9 out of 10, not a concours queen, but a real head turner. A few Minor road dings if you look closely. Hagerty appraised and insured at $33k. On Oct-08-17 at 07:40:57 PDT, seller added the following information: This the car the 914 should have been! I installed a new Raby Type IV engine (dyno at 155hp) in 2015. Go to the Raby Aircooled Technology website. The RAT engines are $20k with a two year wait, but they make the 914 a dream. Fast, reliable and smooth. This version is good for 100k miles according to Raby. I also added Bilstein shocks, 5 lug Fuchs and a new leather interior. No rust, rotisseried, and a California car until 2012.PLUS I am also including the original, matching numbers engine that was running great, then pickled and put on a crate when the Raby engine was installed.This 914 is only driven in good weather, so it is a 9 out of 10. It is not a concours queen, but Is a real head turner. A few Minor road dings if you look closely, and remnants of the rear bumper extenders are there. Hagerty has appraised and insured her at $33k. She can be reliably driven coast to coast, while getting 28mpg. With the Raby engine and upgrades, this 914 will run circles around a 914-6, and do it reliably every day. |
