The development of the Porsche 914 was a joint effort by Porsche and Volkswagen and, from the model year 1970, the vehicle was the new entry-level Porsche model. The two-seater, also known as the VW-Porsche, was a mid-engine sports car with striking design features including a wheelbase that was very long in proportion to the vehicle's length, short overhangs, a removable mid-section of the roof, which was made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic, and a wide safety bar. The 914 also featured pop-up headlights. At its launch, the 914 was available with two engines. The 914 featured a 1.7-liter four-cylinder Volkswagen boxer engine delivering 80 PS or The 914/6 had a 2.0-liter six-cylinder boxer engine from the Porsche 911 T with 110 PS.
The 914-6 also had some distinctive features unique to it, the ignition lock was on the left of the steering wheel in true Porsche style and the wheels were mounted with five wheel/lug nuts. Porsche also built the 914/6 at its main plant in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen.
This 914-6 underwent a refurbishment in the mid-2000s and it was fitted with a 2.4L flat-six from a 911S in 2011. It features14″ Fuchs alloy wheels with 175/70 tires, fog lights, a MOMO Prototipo steering wheel, a CD stereo, Coco floor mats, three-point seatbelts, gold-color badging, dual side mirrors and a hi performance MSD ignition system.
Recent service work includes new battery, replacing spark plugs, oil service, new tires and a brake fluid flush.
Ready for immediate use and in need of nothing, comes complete with full size Fuchs spare wheel assy, Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, owner's manual, service records and the original removed 2.0L flat-six.
