The 914 looks like a very nice example.

According to the auction sales notes “Service records from its early years record the installation of air conditioning by Anderson-Behel Porsche/Audi of Santa Clara in August of 1976 as well as the installation of running lights by Sunnyvale Porsche-Audi in 1978”

This is very strange, as there are no air conditioning fitments to be seen in the photos!
The running lights (spotlights) fitted, are not the original lens fitted to the production 914.

For me, the disappointment is in the engine bay of a 3192 mile car to see a Bosch Blue Coil instead of the original Black Coil and a long aftermarket silicon hose attached to the heater booster instead of a Plastic hose!
And the ECU is mounted in the wrong place!

Yes will be interested also to see how much it goes for.

The disappointment for me comes from that colour combination - yellow and beige - yuck!
