I think this is one of the most overlooked car. I’ve always loved these cars, to me it’s a sleeper Porsche. I would love to own one. Great video thanks.
2nd in the house tonight. 51 years ago I bought my 1st Porsche. 1970 914-6. Fast little car. I worked at Road Atlanta at the time. I had so much fun in that car, especially on the track. I used to scare the hell out of my girl friends and myself~~~.. LOL.. Wish now I had never sold it. I still have my 911 Carreras but that little 914-6 was awesome fun to drive.
That car does need the driving lights. Also nice condition engine cover and your rear trunk pivots are intact (many 914's have these broken to the front sides of the trunk pop up. All it takes is keeping them lubed up).
Whoa ... Nice job . Hard to do now as 914 chassis prices are ridiculous and a air cooled 964 engine is damn near IMPOSSIBLE to fine in late March of 2024. Enjoyed watching this . Thanks.
Thanks, I looked for a 964 engine recently and was absolutely shocked at the price even G50 gearbox prices are crazy. It is becoming harder to do these builds but perhaps the market price reset will help.
Interesting, I just purchased a 914-6 GT tribute, need to get the 914-6 2.0L 6 rebuilt and put in the car. Also in Melbourne. Seemed like the perfect counter point to my GT4RS. Mid engined bookends, 53 years apart.
People think cup holders have no place in sports cars. Some of us daily drive ours so they do. Obviously we won't be having a drink inside during a track day.
I have a 914/930/901 car/engine/trans still unfinished in my garage. Mounting a 1984 930 engine to 911 trans by flipping the ring gear works. Why anybody would want a 330 horse power turbo engine in a 914 is beyond me, but l was. I want to put the Beach Boys Racing Monterey steel body kit on it but cannot find one. Maybe someone has one laying around for sale.
A great build by Ken, this 914-6 is fantastic, what would you like to see next on the channel?
Lovely chap this Ken. Looks like a rippin' 914. Thanks for the video. Any possibility of a 914 Subaru H6 swap video?

Thanks for sharing, great cars with plenty of HP and balance
As a older guy people are amazed we may still like loud music, fast cars, boats, etc. We are still kids at heart.
💯👍
Nice homage to the 917
@@jpvdw1961 thanks 👍

I think the driving lights would really finish off the car

Unfortunately mine have zero, no coffee for me ☕️ 🤣
June 2024, how did it get converted to RHD ? especially if was from US
A local shop did it many years ago. It was common back in the day to convert them, now the trend is to keep them LHD.
I truly enjoyed this! Is that a Dino steering wheel? I put one in my 944 Turbo, many years ago?
Hi, thanks. Not sure about the wheel but I think you are right 👍
Nice car
Thanks 👍👍
hahah many do think this kind of car only had a 4 speed (I do think the auto is 4 speeds though), but these were 5 speed manuals.
👍👍 five also handy with the 964 engine

Hell Hole was the battery tray in a 914. 1st thing to rust out.
Battery trays in these small cars is always a trap.

This was not a collaboration between Porsche and VW Group. The subtleties make a difference to be credible
Das stimmt so nicht....😅
Who wants to see people and hear stories. Technical info on engine, transaxle, pics of car engine etc? PLEASE 👎🏿
