1975 Porsche 914 2.0
Same owner for 38 years in Seattle, Washington until the estate sold it. The second owner lived next door in 1975 and was 8 years old when he first saw the Porsche. Through the next 38 years he remained close to the original owner and the widow, knowing he wanted it, sold it to him. He sent it to a Seattle Porsche specialist to be recomissioned. The receipt is available for about $3, 600. 9 months later he decided it didn't fit into his life.
When I purchased it, we immediately sent it again to one of the best Porsche specialists in Oregon, who have been in business for decades and asked them to fix anything they could find. They came up with a bill for $600. and said it was the best 914 they had ever seen.
Upon acquiring the car it had black tiny spots on the top paint surfaces. Disappointingly, the spots couldn't be removed. It was all original paint. Reluctantly it had to be repainted. It went to one of the best shops in Oregon. It has never had any damage or rust anywhere. Everything else on the exterior is like when it was new. The glass is original and exceptional. The body lines and fit are as it came from the factory.
The car then went into a detailer who is by far the best I've ever known in my 45 years in collector cars. He had the car for six months and painstakingly made the car as good or better than it was new.
The interior is original and close to new condition. It is remarkable how well it is preserved.
The mechanical condition is excellent. The motor runs like a watch. It shifts beautifully. The steering is close to driving a new car.
Books and records. It has the original sales agreement from University Porsche in Seattle. Letter of Authenticity. Original keys. Same owner 38 years with 30, 000 actual miles. Nice example for a museum or private collection.
