1970 Porsche 914-6 GT sn 914.043.xxxx Recreation SOLD $50,000 (2005/Jun)

Sold for $50,000 in less than 2 hours! 1970 Porsche 914-6 GT Project. June 15th, 2005 - From: jonlowe@aol.com [mailto:jonlowe@aol.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 15, 2005 12:33 PM - To: ajserrano@msn.com - Subject: GT

Armando, thanks to your website, it appears my GT is sold! Had three callers last nite, and one guy, who bought a set of headlite raisers from me in the past, is sending a deposit today. He is also taking the other engine parts I have. If you have a minute, would you mind putting "Sale Pending" on the website? I REALLY appreciate this! I still have the 914/6 roller, and a 914/4 Club Racer ready to go if anyone you know might be interested. Jon Lowe DESCRIPTION

$50,000 FIRM (as-is) Look again! New Photos!!! (I told you this 914-6 GT would not last long at that price!) :(

Impossible to duplicate for anywhere near this price at this level. Includes a set of refinished Fuchs 8x15's, and a pair of refinished Fuchs 9x15. The engine is a twin-plug (Marelli Distributor), 2.0 liter 906 spec. using the early Aluminum crankcase with 906 cams, Carrillo Rods, but with 40 mm Webers for more low-end torque. The car comes with a correct and complete 914-6 GT exhaust system. For the gearbox, I have a new 904 mainshaft and new GT ZF type limited-slip along with all of the other related pieces. I also have a set of needle-bearings for the suspensions to replace the solid bushings that are in it right now. I will NOT separate the pieces (please don't ask). What's left to be done? I have not yet assembled the gearbox, but if it was done, the GT could be on the road in a couple of weeks since the engine is ready to go. It basically needs the gearbox assembled, a seat, tires, and shocks...

I have other separate engine pieces that I will list and sell later, including; one NOS Aluminum 2.0 liter crankcase, a set of NOS 1969 Porsche 911"S" 2.0 liter heads, a pair of 46mm Webers (not PMO) and possibly other miscellaneous items I will later list. For more details and additional photos, please feel free to contact me (Jon Lowe) via email at jonlowe@aol.com (Ex-Chairman, PCA National Technical Committee, 914).

OK, the "suspense" is now killing me but I guess I'll have to wait... : (

I want to thank Armando for the work to put this page together. I really appreciate it. If anyone out there is interested, feel free to contact me at the email address Armando posted above. Thanks for looking.

Brant, Contact me at the email address above about the heads. Jon Lowe

OMG! Your 914-6 GT is almost done! I had no idea it was this far along. A completly restored chassis, new engine, correct "everything" and all for $50,000? After looking at my GT project spreadsheet, this does not look good for me (meaning, I have twice that plus some! As they say, "timing, is EVERYTHING!" One quick and obvious question.. "Who will be the lucky bastard that will buy this GT?! (not intentionally trying to insult anyone but who ever he is, he will be extremely lucky indeed).

For those of you who don't yet know... Way more than half of the asking price of this 914-6 GT is covered by Porsche factory original parts, no longer available, extremely difficult to find that sell for thousands of dollars on eBay, etc. (100 liter Fuel Tank, Front Oil-Cooler, 8 & 9x15 Fuchs, Marelli TP Distributor, 906 Cams, TP Heads, Front and Rear Factory Fiberglass Lids, and I can go on and on). This is a rare and unique opportunity for someone to get in on the ground floor, inexpensively of an excellent and nearly complete 914-6 GT project.

Jon, I only wish I had any idea you were going to let your 914-6 GT project go at this price. I have already invested well over $150,000 creating my car. Sorry to hear about the separation, I'm sure it was a hard decision for you to make and my only hope is that your 914-6 GT goes to someone with the same passion and care for detail as you have demonstrated. This project should not last long at this price, IMHO... : (
