This 1976 Porsche 914 is a meticulously refurbished classic that offers a blend of performance, style, and reliability. Undergoing a comprehensive restoration in 2022, this Porsche was carefully addressed in key areas including the engine, body, braking, and electrical systems. Powered by a 2.0-liter flat-four engine and paired with a five-speed manual transaxle, it delivers an engaging and dynamic driving experience. Finished in the striking Nepal Orange over black and orange upholstery, this 914 stands out with its factory-correct finish, 15" Fuchs alloy wheels, a removable Targa top, and a modern aftermarket Bluetooth stereo for your driving pleasure. It comes with a Porsche Production Specifications certificate, service records, and a clean Oregon title.
The exterior of this Porsche 914 retains its factory-correct Nepal Orange color, further enhanced by pop-up headlights, a black removable Targa top, and black bumpers. The body has been lovingly maintained with repainting of the rear decklid and left-rear quarter panel during the 2022 restoration. Additionally, the Porsche side script was replaced, and the left headlight motor was updated. Further refinements include repairs to the left-rear quarter panel, left fog light, and reverse lights, ensuring this 914 looks as good as it drives.
Equipped with 15" Fuchs alloy wheels wrapped in 185/70 Vredestein Sprint Classic tires, this 914 sits beautifully on the road. Braking is handled by four-wheel disc brakes, with extensive work carried out during the refurbishment. A refurbished master cylinder, new tie rod ends, front struts, and rebuilt brake calipers provide enhanced stopping power, making for confident driving performance.
Inside, the interior was thoughtfully updated in 2022 with fixed-back bucket seats, upholstered in black vinyl with orange patterned cloth inserts, offering both comfort and a pop of color. Additional features include a heater, wind-up windows, and an aftermarket Bluetooth stereo to enhance the driving experience. Practical updates such as a new heater control lever, shift rod components, and a replaced heater fan relay ensure the cabin remains as functional as it is stylish. The clock, however, is currently inoperative.
The dashboard features a four-spoke steering wheel and VDO gauges, including a tachometer, 150-mph speedometer, and fuel gauge, with rebuilt auxiliary readouts mounted on the center console. The five-digit odometer shows 3,800 miles, though the total mileage is unknown, reflecting the care and attention this car has received.
Under the hood, the 2.0L flat-four engine underwent a thorough service in 2022, including new intake runner seals, pushrod tube seals, valve cover gaskets, and fuel injector seals. Stainless-steel fuel lines, a new distributor cap, rotor, and spark plugs were also installed, ensuring the engine runs smoothly and efficiently. A new clutch cable was added for smoother shifting, while the underside and fender liners were treated with bedliner material for added protection. A new battery was installed in May 2023, ensuring reliability.
This Porsche 914 presents an exceptional opportunity to own a well-maintained, refurbished classic sports car, blending modern updates with timeless Porsche charm. Ready to be enjoyed, it is offered with service records, a Porsche Production Specifications certificate, and a clean Oregon title.
