Seller’s Description: 914s have not yet reached the lofty 911 numbers but can they be far behind? Repowered with a V8, this Beauty can hit Beast Mode pretty fast. Rust free CA car. We were particularly impressed with the initial build quality of this car. Often enough, they are cobbled together with whatever is available. They function but they are not necessarily well engineered.
This 914-8 is built the right way. Everywhere you look you see quality. The fit and finish of the body is excellent. The perfectly clean engine bay. The exquisitely engineered hidden cooling system. If you’ve seen a 914 V8 with long radiator hoses screwed to the underside of the floor pan, you will appreciate the beautiful execution here. The aftermarket gauge pods for the V8 look stock. A mounted fire extinguisher within immediate reach. A very well planned and executed conversion makes this car special.
